That is a pity because the fix has been discussed many time. A typical 
response in a case like this is tell you to search the archives and not 
waste more bandwidth with the problem.

You are upgrading from a version where the fonts were part of -server. 
They were moved to -libraries and when you updated server, they were 
deleted. The only fix is to reinstall -libraries.
