Item db not readable

[Loke]

I have a problem on my server. I add custom item in item_db.txt then after I use @reloaditemndb all my items became apple/unknown items

I try to remove the custom item i put in item_db.txt but after i reload it again it still the same it seems that item_db.txt is not readable anymore.

also i try to put item_db.txt in import folder but no effect.

Anyone can fix this problem?

are you directly editing the files and uploading the files (like using any FTP client) ??

few years back, I had a similar issue, I was editing the item_db and save, at the background it was uploading the file to the server.

however, I didnt realize that its still uploading, and I did a reloaditemdb command, everything become an apple, broken. 

to fix that, I just re-save the item_db and have it re-upload to the server, wait for the progress to complete before do the reloaditemdb command.

* not sure if you're doing the same things i did tho.

Could you post the item record and any map server errors relating to your item_db file?  Sounds like it may be a parsing issue to me.
