[IRCServices] Db's out of date?

[Nicholas Prisi]

Heya all,

Is it possible that databases of older versions of ircservices are no longer
compatible with newer releases? I just compiled services on a different box,
uploaded my db's via ftp and now I get

[May 13 22:00:27 2003] FATAL: database/version4: Invalid extension data
version in exception.db
[May 13 22:02:05 2003] IRC Services 5.0.18 starting up
[May 13 22:02:05 2003] database/version4: Read error on news.db
[May 13 22:02:05 2003] database/version4: Read error on nick.db

This would still be strange because the original db's come from an older
release which I successfully used on a *.18 release on another box but all
of a sudden they no longer work :( I thought it could be the ftp that messed
them up so I uploaded the files using a text method...

Any help would be great!
