It could be a pfile that is messed up. Check those. I added a printf to show me when each pfile is loading, that way I can narrow down problems in each pfile. When does this happen before, after loading areas? Put in checks in db.c when loading different sections...to give you an idea of where its happening.
IE log_string( "Loading corpses" ); load_corpses(): log_string( "Done loading corpses" ); log_string( "Loading wizlist" ); load_wizlist(); log_string( "Done loading wizlist" ); log_string( "Loading social table" ); load_social(); log_string( "Done loading socials" ); log_string( "Loading artifacts" ); load_artifacts(): log_string( "Done loading artifacts" ); This way you can see where the problem lies. More than likely it's a pfile....show us what you see on the screen when trying to manually start it up.
