Three New Server Setup Issues

Good Morning All!

I'm setting up a new server and have run into three issues. First, I'm running Kubuntu 24.04 on my server. Setup was a breeze, and after installing the missing zlib1g-dev package, I can run admin commands, etc. The server is set for Renaissance era. I was able to create the world and it is populated. Before posting here, I did search through the forums to see if I could find answers for issues, but didn't find anything. The three issues that I have run into are:

1. On hovering over an NPC, object, etc. the pop-up description does not display, I have to left-click it to get the description to display.
2. Left-clicking on an NPC, the context menu does not display to allow purchasing/selling or training new skills.
3. In New Haven (I haven't yet checked to see if the issue extends beyond this town), the training NPC's are red and appear to be flagged as criminals. While standing in close proximity to them, the message pops up that "you would be under attack were it not for your status as a new citizen...".

If I missed a solution that was previously posted, I apologize in advance.
Thanks!

Back in Renaissance (pre AOS) ObjectPropertyList (1&2) and New Haven (3) didn't exist
You used to have to speak to npcs to obtain services
New Haven will operate by post AOS ruleset
To make a server fully pre AOS compliant is a huge job involving client, ruleset and spawns

UO (Debian 12)

For 1) and 2), have you tried just rebooting the shard?

For 1 & 2, it is what 4737Carlin stated. When you set a shard to be UOR or older...the hover functions, and context menus, are disabled since they were not a feature back then. One would need to modify the source to enable these AOS features to work in UOR.

Thanks for the responses! It's been so long that I had completely forgotten about New Haven not existing back then. I decided to just go back to the current expansions, and when I feel adventurous enough to try to setup a Renaissance server, I'll work on that separately from my live server.
Thanks again everyone, your help is greatly appreciated!
