The server should boot up.
Beware tho, it can take 1-9 hours depending on number of mod’s and how old the DB is.
I played this file in 5 years, with a lot of buidling and thrall and player. May be it take long long long time 
The server will start, the older and more items in the world and mod’s, the longer it will take. But it will boot up.
remove the auto restart on it if it takes too long, and add it back later.
I run 9 Conan servers and have done for many years as well as make several mods for the game.
I can confirm that after the hotfix there is the following warning in the logs:
[2024.11.04-21.17.28:006][ 0]LogPackageName:Warning: String asset reference “None” is in short form, which is unsupported and – even if valid – resolving it will be really slow.
[2024.11.04-21.17.28:006][ 0]LogPackageName:Warning: Please consider resaving package in order to speed-up loading.
[2024.11.04-21.18.42:232][ 0]LogPackageName: SearchForPackageOnDisk took 74.225s, but failed to resolve None.
The cause for this is inconclusive at present following many hours spent investigating searching through files, speaking with other modders and server owners and looking through various sources of information.
This issue is widespread and is affecting many 1000s of players and many many server owners, making servers either not start or take many hours to start up. Whatever changes were made in the last hotfix has severely impacted on 1000s of players ability to play on their servers. Many players have 1000s of hours and years worth of progress into their characters and game worlds
Please Funcom can this issue be looked into as a matter of high priority, as stated this issue is affecting 1000s of players currently
Many thanks

And do you think it is possible if a database saved before the update is loaded? Would a rollback be possible?.
2.5 hours this morning to restart our server at this rate everyone is leaving
Hello. I have a problem too with my server. He take 4 hours for start. I really hope you can make a patch for fix this. It’s a big big problem. We have a community, and we want they dont go on another game !
I’m starting to get the feeling that they have a saboteur in their ranks. There’s hardly any other way to explain it…

I have 9 servers too and I can only get up 5 of them up and my 2 won’t even load and the other takes 5 hours to load up. Still getting the same issue. [2024.11.05-17.44.10:040][ 0]LogPackageName: SearchForPackageOnDisk took 30.709s, but failed to resolve None.

Bonjour Funcom, pourriez-vous s’il vous plaît déployer un patch pour corriger les problèmes rencontrés dans votre jeu ? Merci d’avance pour votre aide.
My server is also having these issues since the hotfix
After waiting over 6 hours+ since the last patch, all 5 of my servers refused to boot up anymore. I have tested all my mods thinking it was the issue but no, that was not the issue as the servers on a clean map booted in 15 mins, still double the time they usually do but at least they booted.
Whatever changed during the last patch - please, I beg that you roll it back, as wiping 5 servers that my community has been playing on for nearly 4 years now is out of the question, players will leave, and the frustration of each broken update will only make people want to play this game less.
My logs are just spamming with what everyone else here is reporting:
[2024.11.05-18.02.03:273][ 0]LogPackageName: SearchForPackageOnDisk took 58.088s, but failed to resolve None.

Can you PLEASE stop ‘developing’ the game as all yiu ever manage to do is break things that were not broken before and you NEVER fix things that are broken and need fixing.
Its pretty obvious you don’t test your code properly, most of these defects should have been found during QA before it even went into beta. Roll this back to before the hotfix and test it PROPERLY before you deploy any more bug-ridden bug-fixes!

I agree. Either test properly or just stop developing the game and let modders pick up the slack that will fix it properly.

Please note my EL servers are facing the same issue as everyone else with the same error. My Siptah and Savage Wilds server are having no issues. All of them are running exact same mods.
