Post: #1

Background:
We have scripts and saves from around 2010. We used the Pre-Release for windows back then. since then we have been closed. We now have a Linux box running RHEL6, which does not support the libmysqlclient required by the 2009 prerelease as it is so old. So we have had to use a Nightly.

We understand there is no support for Nightlies, but I think this may be generic to all Linux versions, as a 2011 version does the same.

Issue #1:
When loading our scripts, it gets to our spheremap.scp and outputs an error like this for every single line:
03:26:ERROR:(spheremap.scp,44)Unsupported map #0 specified. Auto-fixing that to 0.
03:26:ERROR:(spheremap.scp,45)Unsupported map #0 specified. Auto-fixing that to 0.
03:26:FATAL:(spheremap.scp,48)Floating point exception
03:26:ERROR:(spheremap.scp,48)Exception adding debug message on the exception.

The #0 is sometimes #2 or #3 and so on.

It also complains about some CTeleport not being valid.


Issue #2:
When loading our Chars save, we get Floating Point exceptions everywhere.
03:26:FATAL:(spherechars.scp,169961)Floating point exception
03:26:DEBUG:command 'P' args '3621'
03:26:FATAL:(spherechars.scp,170304)Floating point exception
03:26:DEBUG:command 'P' args '3697'

It then fails to place the characters in the world:
03:26:ERROR:UID=03db122d, id=0190 'Quiksilver', Invalid code=3202 (Object not placed in the world)

This also happens for EVERY SINGLE ITEM in the sphereworld.scp save file.


Issues #3:
Having loaded up a server with 0 chars and 0 items, we can log in to the accounts fine. But we cannot create any characters. The console shows:
03:37:3:Login 'ivanp'
03:37:3:Setup_CreateDialog acct='ivanp', char='Ray'
03:37:3:Setup_Start acct='ivanp', char='Ray', IP='201.0.41.150'

The Sphere.ini is set up to reflect our old one, we are using our spheretables.scp and scripts from before.


Another sister server based on the same scripts runs on the Windows version of Sphere (with a few bugs but they were fixed).


Any ideas?
Is the Linux build ever tested on a RHEL based server?

Thanks,
