Error Messages in MP Console

I keep seeing these messages in yellow in my server console stating that it can't find a file, or it can't be allocated, or it can't be equipped, etc.

Anyone know what these are from, and why I'm getting them?

Just a note, I made an image of my game and am using Daemon Tools to mount the image in order to get better response on the server, as well as to allow me to use my disk in my REAL computer (not the one running the server). Any thoughts if this might be causing it (I doubt it, as I got the same errors with the disk in the drive).

Thanks much!

I got the same messages in the console, the only "problem" that I found in the game is that my server isn't in the list but if I add it manually (with the command line) it get's listed, but shows as a "internet" server and not LAN I can play fine though...

Well my game shows up in the Internet and LAN listings, as I've had people joining on and off with no issues, and friends/co-workers have been playing there.... but I'm still curious if those error messages mean anything

As I understand it, the yellow "error" messages like this:

E:\FL\Scratch\Source\Common\CEqObj.cpp(454) : *** WARNING: alloc_equip: Archetype[0x8000bec6 not supported/equippable!

aren't really errors, but informational messages. Evidently, they're generated when you pick up a piece of equipment that your ship doesn't support. I can reproduce these messages at will if I select a greyed out weapon and get the "your ship does not have a hard point capable of..." (Sorry, don't remember the exact verbage there)

They also pop up when you tractor "junk" in afer a kill..

Huh... you know what, that makes absolute sense. I'd never thought of it that way! Thanks much!
