Server corruption(?) after crash

[archie]

Hello, my server crashed and I can't start it up again. My computer crashed while playing and now whenever I select 'Host' I get pic related. The server was created on the latest version (with cars) and we even rode one so there is no way the server's version is out dated. Is there anything I can do to maybe fix this? Thanks in advance!

Hopefully this is only a minor corruption that can be fixed by removing one file.
Go to C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid\Saves\Multiplayer on your computer.
Open the "settingsname" folder that you find there.
Delete the "map_ver.bin" file, it should be at the bottom of the folder.
Thats all, start the server again and see if it works.

Under settingsname there was no such file, but i found it under settingsname_player.  Deleting it didn't change anything though, the same message still appears.  I tried creating a new server and pasting all map files from the old one but it still didn't work (same message).

Copy and paste the map_vers.bin file from a working save do the broken saves. Then the world version should match.

 

No promises it's going to work though. Pretty sure you would have to remove every broken file, but I have no idea how to tell which would be which.
