| The dawn.log file doesn't necessarily record everything, it wasn't really designed to be the main form of logging.
Run the dawn.exe file in a dos prompt window (i.e. load a command prompt, then change into the directory which contains the dawn.exe file, then manually run it.)
This way when it exits, you will see any additional messages... I suspect it will tell you that it is missing some directories.

p.s. btw, you can delete dawn.log as often as you desire. |

| Did you remember to run Dawn from dos using the following format?
Dawn 2
That will create the directories you are missing.
I had the same problem when I first started :P
Have fun

| Here are the dawn numbers:
Syntax:
dawn.exe <#>
1 - runs the mud thru a 'Boot Test Only' (Used by HotReboot).
2 - runs the mud in directory create mode.
3 - runs the mud in create dyntable.cpp ode.
4 - runs the mud in test writing skill table mode.
5 - run the mud in create system\classes.txt mode.
