Help! 0.8.2 server error after trying to convert world in previous version

A big new update is now available, introducing biomes, caves and much more!
Latest hotfix: 0.7.0.3 (2024-02-21)
  • Hi @red51,


    After updating (ie copying the new 0.8.2 files over the old ones), the server will try to convert the world to the new version and fail.


    Happy to share my files.


    This is the log:

  • Ok, looks like the error happens even when starting from scratch a new world:

  • By the way, I copied the world to the Rising World steam client folder, and opening it as single player it converts and loads fine, I can even Open to LAN fine, so it is something with the server software only that is giving the error...


    0.8.1 is still fine if I start it instead of the new one (but can connect from the 0.8.2 client).


    Cheers,
    Marcos

  • Sorry for my late response! It looks like some server files are outdated, at least it can't find the new definitions (or more precisely, it's using the old world definitions). Make sure you replace all files in your server directory, especially those files in the "lib" subfolder (or it's better to delete the lib folder and put the new lib folder from the new server version there).
    In some cases a file access restriction can cause some weird behaviour of SQLite (or more precisely, the JDBC driver). So if updating the server does not help, try to move the server to a new directory and see if the issue persists. Also make sure to delete the "cache" folder in your server directory.
