Server is up and running, but there's no inventory

[Posix]

Greetings,

I have compiled and gotten running two servers on two different OSes, and both are experiencing the exact same problem: I can log in, create a character, interact with NPC's, and wander about the world without any issues. However, I have no inventory.

When I start up my server, I see a message about items loading:

[Status] Loading items from database: count=83375

Everything looks ok, more debug messages go by, nothing alarming...

The world log captures:

41544 [08.23. - 15:38:31] Starting Log: logs/eqemu_world.log
41544 [08.23. - 15:38:31] Using database 'eqemu' at localhost:3306
41544 [08.23. - 15:38:31] libEMuShareMem.so loaded
41544 [08.23. - 15:38:31] Loading items from database: count=83375

Everything looks good. I am able to log in, create my character, and start running around the world, except my inventory is empty.

Digging through the logs, I find in files logs/zone-dynamic_0n (where 1 <= n <= 5):

I suspect something may not have compiled right, based on the highlighted error, but I can't seem to find anything that jumps out at me in the file common/SharedLibrary.cpp where the highlighted error above seems to be stemming from.

I built the server binaries from source from August 12:

svn checkout http://projecteqemu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ eqemu

The database I have is peqdb_rev1589.sql, obtained from http://www.projecteq.net/, which as far as I can tell is the latest and the one that should go with the current source.

Any thoughts on where I might be going wrong?

Thanks for any help.
