What's going on?

Soala · #1 07-25-2010, 04:18 AM

I've been experiencing lag and sudden crashes on my UC server for some days now, which was quite annoying. Now I cannot even edit my own attributes through RC and all of them are empty. I did not experience a reset though but there is definitely something wrong.

Anyone knows what's going on?

Probably poor scripts? Era Dev (which is likely on the same server) has been lagging lately, but I've never had accounts spontaneously reset.

What the hell could this mean?

I still can't edit my attributes, I've added myself all I needed such as the HUD, and everything was showing fine. I looked through my attributes again and it was still empty.

EDIT: Seems to happen just with me, my other staffs are completely fine and nothing changed.. My attributes are always fully empty, I've reset myself 2 times and well, still the same problem. I hardly did anything yesterday to make this happen, everything was working fine until I edit the folder config to organize everything, and I highly doubt my issue was caused by this.

Poor scripts was not the problem, more like an issue with the server actually. It wouldn't even create the player object (TServerPlayer). Problem fixed by deleting the account text file found within accounts/* and resetting him while his player was offline.

Got a backup of the corrupted file? I would've liked to see that.

Nothing indicates that it's corrupt, that's the weird part. I found that online seconds was a big negative number though
"ONSECS -2143635700"

Well, that's a start

In that case you probably corrupted your account file. I've never seen such an error before.

I've changed my online seconds MONTHS ago, back when it was Azure Skies, and never touched my account file since.

Strange. I'm also interested in seeing a backup of the account file, if it exists.
