Alright, now this *is* getting frustrating.
If it's saving to minimal.db again...
Honestly. I *know* I didn't have this many problems with the server. I had a number of problems with a number of servers before that, but the problem always was I'd accidentally corrupted my database by opening it in notepad, and I had to run sanfix and sanity checker to fix it.
So now I recommend that to anyone moving a database, since it has to convert it anyway. I can't understand what might be crashing it!
Perhaps there's still multiple restart.exe's floating around? Although technically, restart.exe should only run long enough to start fbmuck with the proper settings, and then quit. If there were multiple restarts at first, and then multiple fbmucks later, that would make more sense. And also might cause conflict, if all the fbmucks are fighting over the same database to save/load to.
So all I know about that is not to use @restart, but @dump and @shutdown instead, followed by re-opening restart.exe yourself.
I sure hope things work out. Although who knows, we could be back on the old server. With this much trouble, it would sure make sense.
