Alright, this is a new problem that I just encountered today when I re-setup my 0.4.2 server. I reinstalled MySQL 3.23.53 and the MyODBC 3.51.05 API on my Windows XP Professional computer. I re-sourced the db.sql included with the 4.2 binaries, and created an account with the MySQL.exe command-line utility. Everything seemed to be working just as it should. Minilogin.exe executed without a hitch, as did World.exe. However, when I ran Boot5zones.bat, each of the Zone.exe's encountered a fatal exception and were terminated. What follows is the contents of my Db.ini, Loginserver.ini, and Miniloginaccounts.ini configuration files.
Db.ini
[Database]
host=localhost
user=eqemu

database=eqemu
compression=off
Loginserver.ini
[LoginServer]

These settings worked just fine before, and I have no idea what the issue is. BTW, this is just a single-machine setup, MySQL, EQemu, and the EQ client running on one PC. Please post your suggestions. Thanks
