Reproduction Steps
i have bought a rented server by Nitrado. It is an experimental build server. the current version is 2.6(b10). Since the update i have encountered multiple bugs. First on loading screen of connecting to server. the cmd in game pops up and cant close it until the game shows spawn. Once spawned. Automatically you are greeted with a visual glitch (red x in center of screen) that are visible in the images provided. Not a big problem as i can just reload the UI but a problem non the less. Also in the images provided you will notice collectoremptytext / collectorhasitem1text being displayed. If u try to access the items inventory you will get the cmd pop up giving multiple different errors every time you first attempt to entre. Once you do so, the game will not allow you to access the apiary, dew collector and the fire pit. If you restart the game, the same thing will happen just the txt might be different in the cmd. Thing i have tried to do to fix the issue was; 1. Restart server and update it. 2. Returned all setting to default. 3. Verified file with in steam. 4. Uninstalled game and reinstalled it. 5. Tried top use debug menu (not at that skill level). 6. Had one of my friends join its with the same result. 7. Left server offline for 5 days or so.
PS. This server was used with 5 other streamers throughout the v2.5 with no issues at all. I will keep checking in on this matter as of right now the game cannot be played without any way to get water or food prepared. Thank you for your time.

Hi wittywave,

We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with the V2.6 update.

If those workstations are in a land-claimed area, you should be able to pick those up and place them again. Can you give that a try and let me know if that corrects the issue?

Additionally, any client-side (player) logs you can provide will help us investigate the issue, since the server log does not contain the error shown in your image. This means that whatever happened, it is showing up on the player side of things and should be in your local log.

The client output log can be found at C:\Users\"yourusername"\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie\logs

Regards,
Dollie

hi Dollie thank you for replying so quickly. in the file is one of the instance that the error occurred. i assumed it was server side as there were 5 different people that had the same issue. to answer your question i think i have done one better for you. i enabled cm and placed a fresh one down. just to verify a replacement issue. the image of the dew collector is with the one i had placed down fresh. but nothing different, its still doesn't let me into the dew collector to collect water. the same applies for the campfire and apiary. storages still work perfectly (storage boxes) and vehicle inventory also. that being said i know the gyrocopter got a new mod slot but requires a new build of the gyro which i have not done yet. so the gyro storages are the old set same as bikes etcetera. i wont be able to provide older log i believe as i did reinstall the game to see if it would fix it. i will need to verify it though. if u do need more of the logs let me know ill do my best. this file was the last time i used the server just to see if anything changed. again thank you.

Hi wittywave,

Thank you for the additional log and information.

After further investigation of the server and client logs, I noticed that the server seems to be having issues loading some of the xmls. This portion of the log shows some issues loading the files, ie something has changed within those xmls. You can see the below in the server log after the section showing the gamestats.

"2026-03-05T02:25:53 7.545 INF Wrong hash on Data/Config/biomes.xml
2026-03-05T02:25:54 7.557 INF Wrong hash on Data/Config/blocks.xml
2026-03-05T02:25:54 7.560 INF Wrong hash on Data/Config/buffs.xml
2026-03-05T02:25:54 7.561 INF Wrong hash on Data/Config/challenges.xml...."

If you have not modded any of the xml files for the game, you may want to, at the very least, validate the server files. My honest recommendation would be to reinstall the server from scratch after backing up your save files.

I don't recall the way Nitrado's backup works, so you may need to reach out to them for assistance with that if you haven't done it before. Once that is done, you would want to load the same game name and seed as your previous save to reload the files.

By doing this, we can rule out that the changes made to those xml's for 2.6 are there and it's not loading an older xml, which may be causing the issue.

Once the files have been validated, please let me know if you are experiencing the same issues.

Best,
Dollie
