Your character file could not be transferred successfully (still busy). Portalling aborted.

No, she hasn't - she's only tried to transfer (and failed every time). That's why it's mystifying that Avlis seems to think the transfer was successful.
guess I'll just keep looking for a DM who has the time to help

Since I host Hala and Ysgard, I have direct access to their logs. However, I have not been successful in getting logs from the Avlis team in some time.
If someone on the staff is willing to work with me, and give me the log files, I can probably figure this out and resolve the issue. I did write or rewrite the vast majority of the core Vaultster scripts that are still in action and assisted PJ with the Linux port. If the core scripts have been changed since, then that may be part of the problem. I spent a significant amount of time back in the day resolving bugs with Vaultster and various character names.
A real quick check for anyone on the Avlis team with Vault access is to compare this character's name versus its actual filename. If the character has been renamed without updating the filename, it will guarantee that they cannot portal.
