Having trouble getting the server running
« on: November 09, 2006, 11:56:13 pm »
I am finally getting back to trying to get my planeshift server running and have run into a snag.  I have gotten everything compiled without error and got the MySQL database created, but when i run psserver I am getting the following error:

Couldn't determine database version.  Error was Table 'planeshift.server_options' doesn't exist.

I logged into mysql and indeed there is no table called server_options.  Here is the list of tables in the planeshift database that ARE listed:

It means that the database wasn't correctly created.
Just do a new source create_all.sql and see what happens.
Also make sure you have a correct checkout, the server_options.sql file should be located in \src\server\database\mysql\

If that doesn't work, visit the IRC channel #planeshift-build on Freenode and ask there.
