Did you make clean?

When you mess around with ANY header files.. You always need to make clean your project.

Or, type:


rm *.o
make


However, typing:


make clean


has the same effect.

The trouble is that you may have compiled some object files with (say) 50 levels, but some with (say) 100 levels. This is very likely to cause a crash. Removing all object files forces them all to be recompiled and thus "in agreement" with each other.

yes i have made clean everything....

I belive the problem lies in my server's crypt files.

I have triied to declare no crypt, and i have tried editing the mud.h file to make it define my system only to linux..

So if you can give me some examples of a mud.h file that only defines linux -- or a make file that defines no crypt so i can veerify it all i would be greatful...

Have a look at this post: compiling Problem - your problem might be something else.

Also, it has suggestions for using gdb to narrow it down.
