Any advice would be appreciated.

couldnt post this in first window too many smiliey's

Bump....




Are these common errors I can ignore?

You can sorta ignore those, because those errors themselves won't actually break anything. But, seeing those errors means that your database version and your server code version are not anywhere near matching, which is a huge problem. You need to make sure that your database matches the same revision of the source code you are running. It looks like your source is very old. I am guessing you are trying to run the base 1129 version from the downloads page? You need to be using the SVN to get the newer revisions. The 1129 version is very far behind at this point. We are 355 revisions after that right now which includes hundreds to thousands of changes.

I did a export in sql mode and when i try and source the character_.sql I get a error

over and over

I need help backing up the peq table files I tried exporting them as sql files but when I try to source the and I have about 100 or more accounts with allot of characters playing on it already so how would I go about backing it up so all my server users log back on after the update without them losing gear or account info?

eg. what tables? and what method so I Can just source all info back in?

Ok I have backed up with navicat

Extracted the whole table.
Then Extracted just these sql's- Items list, Accounts, Character_, Character_backup Faction_List, Guild tables, Zone


I have created Custom Items and wanted to use them after updating to the peqdb_1129Rev333.sql.gz, so I have two pcs with the same server on them just incase, so I went ahead and sourced the new peqdb_1129Rev333.sql.gz and updates.

But all my custom items were gone, so I went and sourced the item file I extracted from my old DB and sourced it to the updated [peqdb_1129Rev333.sql.gz] db and I am getting this error.

And


I tried sourcing the items-0.6.0-DR2-0.6.1-DR1-convert.sql

when I do this I get
any idea's of what I am doing wrong to get my items into the mix again?

I am not sure what that conversion sql stuff is, but it looks really old. It looked like you were closer before you started running those. Your first error shows this:

Unknown column 'augslot1visible' in 'field list'

Which is an issue that means you are trying to update your database with a new items table, but the existing items table is designed wrong. The augslot1visible used to be named differently until a recent change. You should just need to make sure that you run the SQL to change that field in your table before sourcing your items back in. Here is the SQL change from R292:

I have no idea how this is done?

Guidance Please :P

Where do I find th esql to run to fix that ?

Should I just remove the whole Augslot1visible Calumn from the table will that fix it?
I noticed in the old Table ITems the augslot1visible doesnt exist, and in the new update it is there that is why I ask this.

If you haven't already put alot of work into your database yet, then you would probably be best off just starting over with a fresh database. You can always copy in your player-related tables later if needed. Judging by the different errors you have gotten and different things it sounds like you have done, I have no idea what state your current database may be in. Did you back up your database before hand? As long as you have a backup, you can always source that back in to replace anything that has changed. Then you will just need to run any needed SQL changes from the source code to get it updated to run with the version of server code you are wanting to run.

First off, you need to figure out exactly what versions of Database and Server code you are running. Post that here and maybe we can help you. Otherwise, it seems like you may have been making things worse and not easily recoverable. Really, someone with more database experience than I would be better to help with this though, so don't take everything I say as a fact :)

If you are running a PEQ database, it should be fairly easy to get things going once you have matching versions of database and server code. I think the PEQ forums probably have more information on that subject than you will find here though.

Well I have altered 5 zones with custom loot tables for every mob in featured zones, server quests, over 25 custom items, and I really don't want to do it all over again it seems the only issue I am having is with the items not laoding.


My DB is 070_pop_cvs I sourced the peqdb_1129Rev291.sql then the updates after installing emu added quests etc.

then I decided to update by sourcing the new peqdb_1129Rev333.sql and all updates, I figured I Could add all my custom db data by sourcing these files I extracted.

I did also make a backup of all tables in one file. so I could just source and make it back to normal.

But after trying to source character_.sql and getting an error I figured ok I will just make a sql file with what i needed into one file so I added the above files into one .sql instead of individual files and it seemed to put all my Character info back into effect levels zone flags etc were all good except the Item error?

I can re source the peqdb_1129Rev333.sql and it loads fine no errors but no items I made either :(

I am testing this on a second pc with the same server setup as the one I am running, I am doing this to avoid server downtime so its not like my server is all screwed or nothing but it would be nice to not have to make all my items all over again or my zone changes etc.

To get the items you had before, you would need to source your old database again (you can even do it into a new database name so you don't have to delete the one you have now), then, run the update that I posted above to adjust the items table so it is compatible with current DBs. Then, just dump the items table alone to sql. Last, just source that items sql file you made into your existing database. It should now be updated with the new field change and be compatible with the new items table adjustment.

Thanks for the info trevius but I am not sure how to run that update?

I cant find a rev292 update in the updates folder I just downloaded the peq_db too.

Ok I get it make a notepad file with info you posted and renamed it .sql sourced it trying now Thanks man...

OK I have one last question regarding this matter.

Ok on my working server that is all working order atm, what would happen to my accounts characters items etc if I just updated with peqdb_1129Rev333.sql? does that delete all my server db info ?
