If your DB is incomplete, corrupt or incompatible I believe zone will crash upon loading.

What DB release are you running?

Deus	05-21-2004 11:15 AM

the latest version, i believe,btw earlier post, where can i get 5.6 version of Zone?

Ok - that could cause a problem - you are running a different version of zone compared to world, and zone is most likely not even compatible with your DB if it's the newest release.

Anyone know where to get 5.6 version Zone?

(Gah, its storming)

If you want 5.6 WIN32 executables, and you know your EQ client is compatible with them, you can get them here:

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/e...2.zip?download

That is old code though.

K, here is my db.ini file:

Code:

# READ README.TXT!



[Database]

host=localhost

user=Papertank

password=*can'tshow*

database=eq

compression=off





### --- This file tells world.exe what computer mySQL is on. Host should

### --- be left "localhost" unless mysql is on a differant computer than world.exe.

If you are patched (your client) from 04/04/04 (I think) up to 05/05/04 (also, I think) you should be able to use 0.5.6, but anything after that date up to, but not including the 18th, you will need to use 0.5.7

:evil: gah, my server is up, but when i try to connect, it boots me back to server select, this is hopeless :(

You are running 0.5.6? When did you patch your EQ client last?

Deus	05-22-2004 09:05 AM

Like a day before they changed the login skin

Deus	05-22-2004 11:05 AM

And now I messed up the LoginServer.ini file:
Minilogin:

Code:

[LoginConfig] block not found in LoginServer.ini.

MiniLoginAccounts.ini read.

Server mode: Standalone

Login server listening on port:5999

LoginServer.ini:

Code:

### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to. 

### --- Leave the account and password field BLANK. 



### --- Public Login is un-supported as is LAN playing. We recommend using the eqemulator.net Loginserver ALWAYS. 



### --- NOTE: You can NOT use the word "Server" in worldname. 

### --- NOTE2: the word "Server" is added to each server automatically.

If you get a [Block] not found message, generally it is because you have a space at the end of that line.

Go to the line with [LoginConfig] in it, press the END key, and press backspace to delete any spaces.

Deus	05-22-2004 12:50 PM

When will it end? bah

You have a space or spaces at the end of your loginserver= lines, follow the instructions in my previous post to delete all spaces at the end of all lines in LoginServer.ini, world is very picky like that :(

EDIT: Also, depending on when you patched, you will probably want to run 5.7DR3 executables, try Richardo's in the EQEmu forum, or mine at: http://www.rama.demon.co.uk/5.7DR3WIN32.zip
