So, Ive been trying to get a decently "stable" version of the L2j Databases and about a month ago, I had problems with skills, major problems. Fixed that and updated to a newer revision because of some other problems that I heard were already fixed. Not only did I have to re-fix the skills, but now my server Makes characters get "stuck" from time to time randomly. They can chat but cant move, attack or even target mobs. Most of the people on the server have fallen prey to this horrid occurrence. I have changed the ram for my system, and even tried messing with the threads in the general tab for L2j configurator (these are all back to default except allotted ram) and I've been trying to fix this for some weeks now, even going as far as reformatting the Dedicated machine I've installed the server on.... Anyone can think of a fix for this problem? any help would be appreciated, Thanks in advance.

how you usually update your server files?

Have you tried to compile from latest SVN, make a new database and run a clean server seperately ?

[iMadHatter]

I dont use SVNs, Ive been using compiled packs from the "stable" trunk releases... I have no clue how to set these up through the svn even looking at guides my head starts to spin Z_Z Ive always just manualy changed the files from the trunk releases (not as fast or easy when talking about updating) but easier for me man. But recently I wiped my db, even going to the extent of wiping my whole PC and starting from scratch. I still get this issue on the newer DP revisions seeing as about a month ago this wasnt happening =/

[JMD]

so you just download the newest nightly build, overwrite your old files without upgrading the database?

[iMadHatter]

no, I update the database, I just export the characters and custom tables then reload them so I have my buffer and things still if I get an error in my gs console like earlier today I got an error in my custom npcaid table couldnt find table row canMove because it used to be called can_move so I just went and changed the row name and it worked.

[JMD]

you are not updating your database the corrent way. you should use the database installer and choose upgrade. For now make a clean server, back up your old database and run the database installer of the fresh pack and choose upgrade.

[iMadHatter]

I did that Its fresh install with fresh DB and fresh installs of everything, I'm still getting this "characters stuck thing"

Maybe cause data of your characters hasn't updated correctly? You make a backup, and leave them inside DB, then use upgrade function of database_installer, which does everything to preserve your data

[iMadHatter]

The chars dont exist any more. If I formatted my db, my server, my pc, How would the characters not update correctly? I'm not trying to update anything... Im trying to figure out why even new FRESH chars get stuck randomly whiel doing something/anything/random stuff.

if you do that, and we have deleted some files in L2J, you will still have old files present inside and mixed with new files, and that could make issues in some cases.

There was player ai bug, dont know if it has been fixed. When it happends to char again, shift click her being on gm and see char ai intention. if it's anything other than AI_INTENTION_IDLE (when char is stuck) - means its still bugged.
