I’m running Windows 2008 R2 , with the embeded DB.

Starting Client Control Plugin

Found old database version 9 for gateway. Upgrading to version 10…

Warning: database type unknown. You must manually upgrade your database.

First, IM Gateway plugin is outdated. You should use Kraken instead of it. Second, what database do you use? Is it the embedded one?

He did state it was the embedded DB.

Sorry. Dont know how did i miss that

So, the first option is to try Kraken. And if that doesnt help, then maybe go with a fresh installation and install Kraken first. Maybe one of the other plugins has messed up the database, though this would be weird.
