Same issue; others as well. Likely an issue with the hosting.

it is a Rust issue. But the hosting can help you. We got help and are on the way up and running

#

Open a support ticket from hosting site, and you will get the help you need, to get through 🙂

Lesser so an issue with Rust itself, and more so with the old installations of Oxide! Since it stores Oxide data in the rust tools data directory; the errors look pretty similar 😅 Easiest fix is to run a Reinstall + Keep Files with some extra steps ~ steps below! 👀

  1. via the Backup manager, take a backup of oxide , cfg, and server
  2. Once this finishes, move all your files in the Files tab to a subfolder (i.e click the check all box -> Move -> name the folder rustOld for example (Just for safety incase anything important is missed)
  3. Then, go to your Home tab and click Reinstall; ensuring the option you run is Keep files and Reinstall (Theres a delete option too, dont use this one!)
  4. Start the server -> Stop it once it posts as running
  5. Next, go to your Backups tab and restore the backup you created during Step 1
  6. Start the server, good to go!

Ticket lads have these same steps, but figured I'd share the secret here so you guys can get up and running sooner if youre waiting ❤️
