Unable to load config.lua

[archer32]

So, I have made 0 changes to my Config.lua

I have also re-created another config.lua and also just tried a STANDARD one with a distro...

Everytime I run forgotten server it says ERROR.Unable to load Config.lua


Now, why all of a sudden this happens? I have had the server going strong for like 2 weeks, and today???

I use CryingDamson 0.3.6 (8.60) V8.2

I even redownloaded the distro and kept my map, etc...still have the same error..

What could have caused this? I know we did changes to the map, so I brought back the old map to see if it had anything to do with it, and it did not either.

 

[archer32]

Bump, anybody know why all of a sudden this would do it? I have not changed anything in the database and my no-ip.org is still valid, I also removed the no-ip.org and made a new one and still nothing

 

[Evil Puncker]

please post a screenshot of where your server files are (config.lua, data folder etc)

The error I get.

 

[Evil Puncker]

try changing its name to config.lua instead of only config

 

[archer32]

Did not work sadly..

Not really sure how this all of a sudden happens, I even deleted it all and redownloaded distro -.-"

This is the CONFIG.LUA file --- I erased the root and password here -- but I have the right info on there.

 

[archer32]

Bum pity anybody know? It's depressing lol!

 

[Elaney]

Tried changing to a new config.lua?

 

[Flatlander]

Could you need the .otbm on the map name? you just have the name of the file.

 

[archer32]

I have tried diff config.lua

I can try the .obtm when I get home I suppose but my question now is....

If that does wok how do I go 3 weeks not needing it then 1 magical day after restarting my PC I can not run config?

THAT I cannot answer, all I know is I am 80% sure you need the .otbm

Still does not work.

Where can I find a regular Config.lua for 8.6?

I even replaced it with a redownloaded distro and would not accept it either.

 

[archer32]

So, after re-doing a fresh 8.6 Config.lua

This is still not working.

It seriously makes 0 sense.

Please post:

• Operating system
• Exactly how you start the server
  
• All of the text written to the server log when you start it.

Hello Archer32,

What was your solution here? I kinda have the same issue, everytime I upload a new otbm map into my server folder(same names, house and respawn dependencies) my init says that confi.lua is not found.

Nevermind I just solved, this was my case with a custom 7.6 tibia ot.
Just download the exact map editor that was used in the first place (it can be checked by reading the map descrition)
