I just updated to 0.624, and several of my favorite worlds are gone. main, guest2, and guest1, and possibley sme others. this is a huge pain for me, cause those worlds were very important and took a long time to make.

EDIT: They were just unloaded.

Can you please look through the log file (from that first start-up after upgrading to 0.624), and see if there are any errors are warnings logged?

i dont need to. when i tried to start up the server after updating, it said could not find map file for a world called "spawns2" so i opened the worlds.xml and deleted that file for spawns2.

The logs often include more detailed information that can be used to fix bugs like this so they don't happen again. It'd be really helpful if you looked through the logs, even if it's no longer a problem for you.

Okay, I looked through the logs. In the logs it said config xml loaded sucessfully, which is strange, as the console said otherwise. But on the consoleGUI, when I attempted to start the server, It said Could not find mapfile for world spawns2. Then it automaticaly shutdown everytime.

The date was July 16th, so I was looking at about 10 logs for each restart, each reported no errors.

If it helps, I have automatic world saves disabled, so I can wipe guest worlds when they get full. backups, however are enabled.

I'm sorry my logs couldn't help. If you have to wait this one out, I'll make sure to copy the error report from the console next time (I couldn't then, because that was one of the new fetures for that very update)

I'm pretty sure this is just because i dont have saves on. not a bug
