the vhabot server may be down for all i know, eh. not tooo worried about the !items, but info would be nice if someone has it.

main issue: new install of 4.3 to replace a 4.2 bot, no copying of files, nothing.

straight edit, new mysql db, roster fails to update;
Bot is online ::: Roster update starting ::: System busy
Roster update failed! Funcom XML returned 0 members ::: System ready

thats all i get, !rosterupdate or no. which is funny, because the xml is in the right place, the php files point to it, i can skim over in firefox and LOOK at it, but the bot just doesn't see it.

edit: ignore vhabot comment; saw the post in modules.

It's been my experience with FC xml that if first you don't succeed try and try again. If you grab the url from the php-files and open that url in a browser and find the xml then it's most likely a timeout. FC servers aren't always fast enough. This is quite apperant with larger guilds (as generating the xml naturally takes longer).

What you can try is to open the url right before you start the roster update as FC servers do some caching. It helped me more than once.
