First: thanks for the work into making this tool. But I have a problem. I downloaded the CedServer 6.1 for windows and put it into my UO folder. I'm running it under windows XP 3SP with client 7.0.8.2 (2D version of Stygian Abyss, last patch).
CedServer asks for the files and account data, I leave everything free except account data. CedServer creates the xml file. CedServer closes down.
Any idea what to do? Thanks.

When starting under command prompt it generates this error message:
[14.08.2010 11:37:52] Initialization started
[14.08.2010 11:37:52] Loading MapAn unhandled exception occurred at $00418076 :
EFOpenError : Unable to open file "map0.mul"
  $00418076
  $0043DFA8
  $00416411
  $0040188F

What does that exactly mean (apart that it has problems with the map0.mul)? Is there a maximum file version it supports? I thought the SA map0.mul is the very same as it always has been???

Got the "raw data" muls from Siebenwind that they claim work with CedServer. Same error message:
[14.08.2010 11:46:28] Initialization started

Edit: Got it working now by setting map dimension to 896 for the Stygian Abyss map. No clue what about the siebenwind stuff that is supposed to be pre-ML. *shrug*

The map I use is pre-ML too. You can work with maps of any size, that's why you can (and have to) specify the size manually.
But the error you got - unable to open file - most likely indicates, that the file is locked by another application (the UO Client, RunUO, whatever), or is simply not found (wrong path for example).

I would just like to say, I thought that I was using an ML map, and for some reason it seems that my sizing was incorrect. Once I fixed the size of the map, the server loaded up fine and I was happily editing away. Also don't run UO or any tool that uses the same .mul files. I run the CentrED server with it's own set of .mul files. This way I can be sure that there are no conflicts.
