Thanks, Justin. Do you happen to know if the first save will be
reliable (other than the missing assets)? It's that word "aborted"
that worries me.
You're right to be worried - the first OAR will not be usable. I have added some text to the error message to make that
clear.
And how can I go about removing references to the missing assets? Is
this a case of hacking the MySQL database?
No, unfortunately it's more complicated than that. The missing assets could be referenced anywhere (within serialized
objects, asset metadata or even hardcoded within scripts).
In principle, you could untar the successfully saved OAR and grep all the files for the missing asset UUIDs. That would
highlight where they are being referenced.
But really, the missing asset problem should not be causing your initial OAR abort. The asset service should return
notification of missing assets as quickly as it returns actual assets. Are you using a stock asset service? Also, how
many assets actually end up being saved - is it a very populated region?

OAR save times out after 60 seconds if it doesn't receive all the assets it's

or very unresponsive servers from keeping the file open indefinitely.
The errors you're seeing suggest that the assets not being delivered are
missing anyway, otherwise they would get into
the subsequent save.

Finding this a lot while doing "save OAR" (text in<> is variable):

So, I'll get several "No information" lines, followed by "OAR save
aborted" and, a few seconds later, several "received information"
messages.
The OAR checks as complete with gzip, but I don't know if it's
complete or not. When performing several "save OAR"s in a command
script, it's not clear which region is affected, or even that there
has been an error at all unless one looks for it.
This could lead to incomplete saves being archived. Obviously, this is
dangerous.
On rerunning the "save oars" during the same OpenSim.exe session, I
get the message:
[00:29:35] - [ARCHIVER]: Could not find asset<UUID>
for each of the above lines . This time, there is no "OAR save
aborted" message; presumably, the OAR worked.
Any ideas?
