I did what you said, and my server still just says "Locked", the MySQLAdmin still says "Not Found", and when I try to load up EQEmu Admin Tool it freezes for a while then finally loads with the error message:

Exception: Can't connect to MySQL server on '*my IP adress here*' (10060)
The admin tool wasn't able to connect to
database "eq" at host *my IP address here*.
Please go to the Preferences dialog and set the
username, password, database, and host values.

There's an OK button, and when I click that the tool closes down.

I'm confused...

Oh yeah, I opened the FQADMIN.INI to see if I set everything, and it all looks right but I dunno what this one thing is for:
EQPATH (I set it to the EQ folder)
MAPSPATH (I didn't change it, dunno where it is supose to go)

Well.... I need Help... Is there a Chat thing besides Mirc thing? like Live chat so i can talk to someone? maybe on Yahoo?

Mirc is just a popular program to access the IRC network. and it is by far your best bet to chat live with someone aobut problems.

Log on, ask and be patient. If you don't get a response try agin in 10 minutes.

I got past login, then i got a "COULD'NT' message: as follows:

"COULD'NT LOAD DLL (null), error = 0" or some along those lines...

Did I miss a piece of something? because when i was patching for the first time, it says "missing file: blah blah blah"

It sure sounds like you messed up patching somewhere.

The EQEmu patcher should be installed in your EQ dir, not in a subdirectory like might be suggested by the default path when setting it up.

I'm getting an SQL Error message. Here it is. Anyone else got this before? Using Windows2000 sp2 with the newest mysql release.

Seems it doesn't like the syntax. Guess i'll go in the sql code and see what's what.

more like your DB isn't right, it is missing tables.

whenever i try to type in:
i just get this:
i also has this when i was trying it without the lsaccount_id=0 at the end. what is wrong?..

try it with

"status=200"

Howdy,

I have been working on a LAN setup, with no internet connection (in the military and dont have personnal net access). I have everything working great on the server, can log on and play normally from server computer. My problem is when I try to connect from a second computer. I reach the server select menue on mini login just fine, mini login sees the client when I do this but when i select my server and try to connect it bumps me out every time. Both machines are running xp pro and I am using a hub for the LAN. I have spent alot of time reading the forums but I am overlooking something (probably very obvious). Any suggestions as to why this is not working for me would be appriciated. :D

Make sure you have the propper entries in miniloginaccounts.ini and that your not using 127.0.0.1 or localhost anywhere. Use the actual lan IP addresses.

Also check the minilogin, world and zone windows for any clues to what is actually happening.

That did it for me...
 

Hi,

just wanted to say that I've been away from EQEmu for a few months and nothing worked when I returned - but following this did, so thanks Lurker - nice job on this file!

Well with over 20000 views I'm glad I have been able to keep it pretty much up to date and useful :)
