Server crashes with "System.ArgumentException: Object of type 'LiteDB.ObjectId' cannot be converted to type 'System.String'."

Server crashes with following logs after restart, sometimes using restore recovers it, but next time server restarts it crashes again. Started happening after latest update.

OS: Linux Ubuntu

Please attach the save file and database.

This is currently last restore point that was created before the server went to restart loop. This has already happened multiple times so I suspect that the issue is still there, just some specific restarting case when it fails.

Also below is my Linux systemd config in case it interests you. With this game actually saves and closes properly.

I have tried multiple cycles of starting and stopping the server with this savegame and wasn't able to get the error.

Is there anything specific involved in getting it? Your mention of your config to "with this game actually saves and closes properly" sounds like the server was simply not shut down correctly and the database corrupted as a consequence - that is common for ungraceful shutdowns and a setup error, not a bug - though typically shows in different ways. (With the actual savegame corrupting, not the database)

Could you maybe provide one of the broken saves, so we could look at that?

I do not have the broken save at the moment as I did overwrite the save from backup (those things are super btw!) If it happens again I will provide one and I can open a new ticket if needed.

Closing due to not reproducible and no broken save available.
