[Opensim-users] OAR not receiving asset data in time

[John Hopkin]

Thanks, Justin. Do you happen to know if the first save will be
reliable (other than the missing assets)? It's that word "aborted"
that worries me.

And how can I go about removing references to the missing assets? Is
this a case of hacking the MySQL database?
