A shame there are no replies to this yet.  I'm having the same issue.  Running Gentoo Linux on my server.

Prior to the game crashing with the error above I get a bunch of errors along the lines of.

To make sure it wasn't an issue with old game data, I deleted my VintageStoryData folder and still get the same issue.

I just deleted the VintageStory files, unpacked the tar file again and it worked.  So I assume the game bugs out if you just try and overwrite the old server binaries and data.
