[TFS 1.0] - The server does not save house changes.

[Jack Parsons]

I've downloaded the 1.0 version of the Forgotten Server, and for some reason it does not save any house changes. I'm creating a new map from scratch, and I've created some houses already (It's perfectly possible to buy them with !buyhouse). Nevertheless, when I close the server and open it again, it does not save the owner of the house, nor the items inside (Even if I log out). I'm using MySQL and considering the schema that came with the server, I thought the server would make changes to the "houses" table, assigning a player as the owner.

How can I make the TFS 1.0 actually save data to the database / houses table?

EDIT: Inside the world folder, there's only agharti-house.xml, which is a product of the Remere's Map Editor.

How exactly are you closing the server?
Assuming you're running the server on windows - if you just close the console the server will not save before closing.
If you use "/closeserver" first, this will save all players by logging them out, but that is all - houses etc. still not saved.
You should use "/closeserver shutdown" to close your server. This will ensure the entire server is saved and closed correctly.

I hope this has been helpful =]

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm doing (Closing it the wrong way), since it's just an application running on a terminal (There's no way to input any commands). I'm testing the server with a 5 vocation player (Master Sorcerer), and there's no "Game Master" vocation. The /closeserver command just does not work, since I don't have access. Do you know how I can create a "GM Account" so that I can close the server correctly?

To create yourself a GOD character:

- Create a new character with whatever method you have configured
- Log into MySQL (you probably use phpMyAdmin)
- Edit the player you just created - set group_id to 3
- Edit the account of the player you just created - set type to 6

You will then be able to use the commands =]

EDIT: Just noticed Cornex helped you in another thread, whoops! Best of luck!
