What customized stuff do you have on your server SoTRichard? Most things that you have customized, and things that are not present in a new DB (like player accounts)could be backed up and resourced into a more current DB like PEQ CVS or Angelox's, unless there was table structure changes in those tables from your DB to a new one. I would just say that if your wanting to fully update to a newer version, and you dont have custom content, back up your characters and accounts, make a new DB using a newer release, and then source your stuff back in to the newer one. Replace all files for the server itself, make any config file changes and let er rip.

But thats my opinion, and it could turn out to be more hassle than its worth in some cases.

Your zone launcher, given your log file is functioning perfectly to the normal eye, as its connecting to world, and world is setting up ports and making connections ect... Is world just not transfering characters over to zone?

P.S. Just now read this in your OP. The launcher is a blank window. It shows absolutly nothing. The key to see wether its working or not is to see the connections made in world and that the launcher title goes to 0:Sleeping, of course meaning that it has been set up, and is in sleep mode since there is no active client connections or booted up zones.

yeah, before i updated my launcher would show the 20 zone dynamics each coming online and going to sleeping after but i don't know... it's like it's not actually loading the zones even though world says it is... because when i go to try to log a character in they crash when i try to enter the world from character select screen... and sleeping doesn't do anything.

Can I just hazard a guess, but are your spell*.txt files recent? I used to get the zones dying whenever the char hit the zone, that turned out to be the spells*.txt.
