(RADIATOR) Text file database --> New Database format needed

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Robert -

It sounds to me like there is a typo somewhere in the existing users 
file, which is causing the "end" of the file to be incorrect.

Most Radiator users employ an SQL database for user definitions and 
accounting and so on. You will find example configuration files and 
example table creation scripts in the "goodies" directory. There is 
also a "buildsql" utility supplied in the Radiator distribution that 
you can use to load a flat file into an SQL database. See section 10 in 
the Radiator 3.7 reference manual ("doc/ref.html").

regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
