Could an invalid db cause 1017 error? --- getting somewhere

[Astartae]

Thanks, I'll try that. Crossing my fingers...

One other thing. I've got the following databases, do you know if any of these have problems?

Came with 4.4:
db.sql, books.sql, dbinstall.sql

Came with 4.4DR1:
db.sql, planesofpower.sql

Got seperately off this forum:
eq_044.sql, items.sql, books.sql, npcmov_alpha_0_0_3.sql, and worlddata1 (which has too many files to list here).

Thanks again.
