    I am on Windows. I downloaded sbbs_dev and extracted that to exec directory. After that I ran jsexec update. It says missing c:\sbbs\ctrl\msgs.ini file.. --- Synchronet 3.20a-Linux NewsLink 1.114

    That's expected (not a fatal error). See https://wiki.synchro.net/install:dev --

    it literally fucking tells you the problem.
    you edited it or you have some damage to that file.
