Having some issues with persistence (SOLVED)

    Started having some issues with persistence this evening.

    Started making a new mission yesterday, and set everything up for persistence after i had placed most of the vital alive modules, and i got it all working perfectly.
    Got the datapad up after clicking "Server save & exit" and it showed lots of info and then mission ended, could boot the mission back up again and everything had persisted.

    then i continued making the mission, made a few basic scripts that i needed, and populated the map with custom supplies and such for scavenging. Got everything ready, and proceeded to test it on the server again.

    This time however, nothing happens when i click "Server save & exit".
    I confirmed multiple times that i was logged in as admin, and the "Server exit" button works, which also requires admin.

    Also checked the war room, which confirms operation start.

    Double checked all modules to make sure persistence was turned on,
    Player logistics (disabled) module had "disable logistics" and "disable persistence" on "YES" which i turned back to "NO" and proceeded to try running it on the server again after renaming the mission, still didnt work.

    checked the RPT log and it confirms "ALiVE-0 CONNECTED TO DATABASE OK", but below that ends a few lines with "SYS_DATA_ERROR" and "ALiVE SYS_DATA - EITHER DATA LOAD FAILED OR MISSION DATA PERSISTENCE TURNED OFF: false" (both logs added + the mission folder itself in links below)

    aaaand now im at a loss of what is wrong.

    Any help would be greatly appriciated.

  2. Are you using the latest version of CBA? If so, please note that persistence is broken until the next ALiVE update (soon™)

    Not a 100% sure, i downloaded CBA a few weeks ago, downloaded ALiVE on Thursday.
    I must have had some lucky timing then, because it worked flawlessly yesterday.

    I guess the only thing i can hope for at the moment is that (soon™) is (verysoon™). :D

    From what i did see yesterday i must say im very impressed with the persistence. Kudos! :)

    EDIT: im using the steam workshop to get CBA, which says it was last updated Febuary 20th. Meaning i used the same CBA version yesterday and it was working then. :)

  4. Tried again, this time using CBA 2.2

    Still nothing.
    Starting to suspect that there is something i've done in the mission itself that borked it.
    Guess i'll have to wait until the next version to be sure.

    (If anyone that reads this and are using persistence at this time and has it working, could you please leave me a reply here? Thank you.)

    Yea, CfgRemoteExec had to be it, i even threw that into the description.ext without adding the addaction or sqf's into the mission. Just that alone caused the persistence to stop functioning completely.

    Oh... Well forgive me, as you probably could see im still rather new at this. I found CfgRemoteExec and saw the simplest way to do it, and got punished for it. :P

    Live and learn. ^^

    Thanks for all your tips and advice though (To everyone that responded in this thread). Much appriciated.
