Update not working

Hi!
I just downloaded the updat 1.03. AB imports it normally but when I want to start AB afterwards it gives me an Errorbox with following errors:

cod5Dat.dat - 3 - duplicate record encountered ('racelist')
kt5Dat.dat - 420 - ruleset 'sc_kill' not defined
kt5Dat.dat - 454 - ruleset 'sc_kill' not defined
kt5Dat.dat - 478 - ruleset 'sc_kill' not defined
kt5Dat.dat - 503 - ruleset 'sc_kill' not defined
kt5Dat.dat - 561 - ruleset 'sc_kill' not defined
kt5Dat.dat - 585 - ruleset 'sc_kill' not defined

And then the prog exits.
Solutions?

Thx

When you imported, did you untick the option to delete files not updated? It looks like you did, because the Kill Team and Cityfight rules have been removed and yet your AB is showing errors in those files which means they didn't get deleted. You cannot leave those files in the AB data folder - as you can see, doing so breaks it.

I would suggest deleting the AB40k5 folder (normally in c:\armybuilderex\data) and then import 1.03a again - this time do not change any of the import settings.

Hi Spack!

The strange thing is, I didn't untick the box. I have AB for several years now and know that I shouldn't untick it. That's why I asked here, otherwise I could have imagined that it had been my fault.

It's odd that the files referred to as having problems aren't in 1.03a though.

Did you delete the AB40k5 folder and reimport?

Yes, I deleted it and reimported - now it works.
Strange... as I said I never untick the box.
