Failed to start client (UDP) listener (port 9000)
 

I was wondering if it was possible to run two instances of EQEmu on one server? I have two seperate Databases in MYSQL, two folders set up for EQEmu, and changes the zone ports to not conflict.
When I try I get the following message:
[Debug] [WORLD__INIT_ERR] Failed to start client (UDP) listener (port 9000)

Any ideas? Search didn't turn up anything relavent

Port 9000 cannot be changed as the client is hardcoded to connect there.

You could try to add an virtual IP address to your network device and configure each server to a dedicated IP address. But it might be that servers are listening on any IPs on the server(0.0.0.0) and only taking connections from the IP configured in the eqemu config xml file. In this case it will not work.

Maybe you should give the free VMware Server a whirl, I use it all the time for testing and running EQEmu servers.

Ah yes, I was thinking of VMware, but wooo those have always cause me some headaches heh, If anyone knows how to unhardcode something, that would be nifty haha. :)

Well, I am pretty sure that as long as you make sure that each instance is using a different set of ports, it should be as easy as copying the EQEmu directory and chaning a few settings.

If you are using MiniLogin, however, I cant say if it will support it. Based on what I have seen with my setup, I think MiniLogin just might.

I saw in the xml file a place to change the zone port range, but not for the actual 9000port for the eqemu world.exe I believe.
If I was smart in programming maybe I could grab the source and change it there, then compile world.exe?
I do not know much about this but, under source 0.7.0, world folder, net file, there is a line
EQStreamFactory eqsf(WorldStream,9000);

As I said above: Port 9000 cannot be changed as the client is hardcoded to connect there.
