I posted my world.exe, db.ini and LoginServer.ini data on page 2 as quotes. If you look there, you should find them. And I am on an XP Home Ed. using 512 mb ram and p4 with 1.4 ghz. I set up 4.3 and 4.4 servers with few problems and ran them until something in the eq folder decided to die.
Now, I am trying to set up the new 5 server and having trouble starting the world.exe file. I've set up db.ini and LoginServer.ini correctly. I've even hand typed them, just to make sure there are no strange invisible characters messing me up. I have mysql 3.23 running on my computer. A few people have mentioned having no problem running them (on Linux I think) but I'm currently downloading 4.0, just to try it out and see if I have any better luck with it. I also installed MyODBC 2.5 and 3.51 just so that it wouldn't show "not found" in that window. I probably didn't need to but I wanted to cover all my bases.
I've tried many different things to get world.exe to work. Most recently I've been trying changing the names of the ip address from my online ip addy (not a static ip) to localhost to 127.0.0.1 in the LoginServer.ini. That didn't make much difference. I also tried changing the ip addy in the db.ini and using the miniserver.exe. Putting localhost or 127.0.0.1 in the db.ini made no difference but when I put in my actual online ip address, I actually got a response between the miniserver.exe and the world.exe.
Here are the printouts:
world.exe:

That last line is printed out after I close the world.exe
I have a feeling that I'm forgetting some silly and easy little thing that is going to make me want to smack myself after I fix it. I just wish I'd find that things so I can get in the game finally...
