NEW BINARY IS AVAILABLE - Download the binary from the normal location (see Get Land - Self Hosted)
MAKE AN OAR BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING
Your best option is to unpack the binary to a new folder and copy your Region.ini file in. You can copy your opensim.db file (your region contents) but you are better off saving an OAR from your original region and restoring it to the new binary. If you do not know how to make an OAR backup (in console, "save oar /path-to-file/name-of-file.oar") and you are confused about the load oar command, check with me (Edison).
The new binary fixes many issues, however it may still have some bugs too. Also, it is preconfigured and many options are not configurable anymore. I will publish a list this week. Following our grid upgrade, we have been made aware of an issue with the old self host binaries.
Specifically due to changes in the avatar appearance pack in the new builds, teleporting to regions running the old self host binary do not work. We are working on a new binary to upgrade your simulators with but it will take a few days.
We apologise for the inconvenience.
