All compiled but psserver.exe crashes

[Aerig]

I\'ve compiled everything using MinGW. No errors along the way either (*stunned*) but the server crashes after reading the config file.

Can anyone give me ideas where I might be going wrong?

Console output is as follows ...

$ psserver.exe -relight

src/server/database/mysql/dal.cpp:360: failed assertion \'false\'

1. Why do you run the server with -relight? The server doesn\'t even care about lightning data

2. Have you inserted the database?

[Aerig]

I ran the serv er with relight in case the absence of it was causing the prob (didnt think it would make a diff and --- it didnt )

And yes I have inserted the db

Stick some debug stuff in src/server/database/mysql/dal.cpp to see why it is asserting or look at the back trace and try and see what it is trying to do that triggers the assert.
