Hey folks - I updated my local Rust Server instance with the April 10, 2025 Oxide update. Now getting this fatal error on server startup. Any idea what might cause it? Possible I need to update the local plugins on my machine? I only have a couple.

I ended up doing a clean new install of Rust Server and Oxide...seems to be working okay now.

Glad you got it working, it seems you were missing a file required for oxide to work after the update somehow according to that error.

Can you change the status to solved :)
