Fresh Server Stalled

Alright everyone, I've setup EQEmu with no problems in the past but now I'm having an issue.

I load up World.exe and it hangs at the following:

Code:

---------------------------------------------

[01.28. - 10:45:12] Starting Log: logs/eqemu_world_7896.log

[01.28. - 10:45:12] Using database 'eq' at localhost:3306

Same with Zone.exe and QueryServ.exe.

Here is a copy of my Config

Code:

Try replacing localhost with 127.0.0.1.

I've tried both ways, still doing the same. I will rebuild from scratch because I forgot to build the EQEmu Login Server!

I will post back with an update. Thanks for the reply!

You left your password in your first part of your database information, you may want to take that out.

Thanks for catching that, I modified my post to hide it as well.

P.S Still having the same issue with a clean rebuild! Has to be a glitch somewhere on my end.

Question?: Is your database called 'eq'? Usually people name it 'peq'.
Also, mine looks kind of like this.

Correct. I did name mine 'eq' but this has never caused an issue in the past. perhaps I'm building against a bad version of mysql? I mean I have mysql installed for my apache but I built against the mysql that came with dependencies for eqemu.

Unless you are getting database errors, you should be fine.

Your log doesn't show a "hang". What makes you think it hangs? What do you observe and what are you expecting to happen next? What does your start.bat look like?

I think I know the problem, he's not used to the new way the compiles work, with less logging, I was like that the first time, it just takes a while to get it up and going because you don't see the whole process happening aside from using the database, try to run it, give it 4-5 minutes, and see if it's on the server list.

When I open World.exe it is supposed to show it loading everything from the DB (Such as spells and items) instead it stops at "Using database 'eq''

Also, it is supposed to detect when a zone.exe is connected and it doesn't do that either.

I guess you could turn the log level up in CMake, also, shared_memory is the only one that loads your items and other static information.

Okay you were 100% correct. My server works flawlessly. I didn't know the logging changed at all, it's been quite a while since I've ran a sever. All is well, I show up in the list, database is working, all that jazz.

Thank you for the replies and help!

Oh sweet, I was taking a wild guess. I hope you enjoy your server, as my signature says, if you need any help, just ask. Enjoy!
