Having error message and cant start host server

[sage hollow]

I’m sure this is common and I looked online and they were all too confusing so I’m going to the direct source. Please help, thank you!

This usually happens if you add mods to the server. Do you have any?

[sage hollow]

fully vanilla server, no mods that I know of

[obtuse carbon]

How much RAM did you assign?

Don't collapse PZ while the server is launching, not touching anything is a good thing to do too. Helped me.

[sage hollow]

4 GB

I have had it crash one time after playing for a couple hours, I don’t think i’ve had an issue with this server besides that

but after the crash I was still able to get right back on, the next day though is when I had trouble

Can you share your logs.zip file found in C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid?

[sage hollow]

when I get home Saturday night I will, thanks for the patience

[sage hollow]

hopefully you can help me out, thanks for the patience once again

se.krka.kahlua.vm.KahluaException: YoMomma_SandboxVars.lua:511: unexpected symbol near <eof>

Seems like there is an issue with your sandbox file

Did you perhaps manually edit it?

Or add any mods that add settings to it?

Regardless, you can put this file in your Zomboid/Server folder

And the server should be able to load after that

[sage hollow]

manually edit as in change like spawn rate or loot settings? That has been the only thing I've touched, no mods

@ripe lion I just put the file you sent me into my zomboid folder and I tried to load up my "host" server and got the same error

[ripe lion]

Into your Server folder

Not Zomboid folder

[sage hollow]

ooooo k

thanks

[sage hollow]

I lost all the data of the server I was playing on, any way of getting that back?

[ripe lion]

Not sure what you mean by that. Are you sure you are loading the correct server?

Did you crash before the data loss?
