[Guide] The specified database doesnt exist

.Beatz · 07/25/2010, 16:07

Ok I have had enough of people complaining that when you run a 5165 server that you get this error

Code:

The specified database doesnt exist

You WILL get this is your OldCODB Folder is not in C: Drive

Please follow the guides as they do tell you this needs to be in that place.

Download the source you would like to use.

Extract it to C:

Now you should see 5165 Source / NewestCoServer or whatever source you downloaded is called.

You should also see OldCODB in your C: Drive. If you do not see this then you have done something wrong.
After you see OldCODB in the C: Drive then your P.Server will work.

:r tfm:

**UPDATE**

Just now had someone complaining to me this wasnt working. So I asked them to check their source and I found that all the checks for OldCODB Were pointing the server to F:\
You will need to go through your source and make sure that it is pointing to the right place.
This only applies to people using this source.

Make sure you get everything else it will not work.
F:/ F:\ F:// F:\\ These need to be changed to C:/ C:\ C:// C:\\

There must be a few F: you have missed.... I downloaded this source to check it and I had no problems after changing the Drive letters.

That post is spam actually, you could have reported him instead of posting it, besides, you can't command people, moderators can (sort of).

I never said I COMMAND YOU! Therefore not commanding people. I did say "please don't spam this thread". If that is commanding people the WOW you have a lot to learn. Yes that post is spam but I was merely pointing out that his comment was useless.
Okay I have an idea. I'm just going to throw this out there.
Basser read what you post before you post it. I feel a bit insulted by your post. Yes I could have reported him but I was feeling in such a nice mood earlier. Now I'm in a ****** off mood because people come here tell me I cant do something I haven't done.

Another post I see like this Basser I will remove everything of mine from epvpers. I have helped a lot of people over the time I have been here. Yes I know my releases are not all that "Advanced" but someone has to help people.

Anyway I'm going stop typing now before I break my keyboard.
