OK, banged my head against this long enough...

[Kirgothi]

ok, I reinstalled and now I am able to connect to the database and I inserted the record into the emusp3 account table. I also had to copy the patch_6.2.conf file into the opcodes.conf file before I was able to get past the login screen. YAY!!

Now I am right back where I was before serverpack 3.5, a server selection screen with no servers listed.

[cavedude]

You are using the wrong database. 3.5 creates a database called eq, not emusp3. Try completely dropping all databases, un-installing the Server Pack, manually delete the EQEmu dir if logs are left, re-download 3.5 and try again. I guarantee it works.

Yeah, I actually deleted all but my 'mysql' and 'test' databases before reinstalling. Wasn't sure if there was a reason why I had a emusp3 db before, but then it created an eq db after (with 3.5). I still can't get past the server screen either though. :(

[Kirgothi]

Cavedude, I will try that. I have to go out for a couple hours. When I get back I will try all of that and reply here. I will try to post all the info I can find. It will be a loooong post.

[klinzhai]

Maybe this will help, my eqemu_config.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>Korancia</shortname>
<longname>Korancia - EQ</longname>

<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. -->
<address>127.0.0.1</address>
<localaddress>127.0.0.1</localaddress>

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>127.0.0.1</host>
<port>5999</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>

<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
<key>some long random string</key>

<!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service. -->
<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>

<!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. -->
<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>eq</username>
<password>eq</password>
<db>eq</db>
</database>
</server>

(changed from red... it was so obnoxious)

Here is my minilogin

###Your current configuration is as follows:

loginserver.ini:
[LoginServer]
loginserver=127.0.0.1
loginport=5999
worldname=Korancia - EQ
worldaddress=127.0.0.1
locked=false
account=
password=

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=
Unavailzone=
[ChatChannelServer]

worldshortname=
chataddress=
chatport=

[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Minilogin
ServerPort=5999

Still stuck at server screen. Before I installed this last time (earlier today) I deleted all but my 'mysql' and 'test' databases, made sure that the 'eq' user in MySQL had the password of 'eq', deleted everything in my eqemu directory other than the maps (take too long to download) and then reinstalled. Still nothing at the Server screen :(

[cavedude]

Ohhh... you changed the server names... You don't have to with minilogin, in fact I recommend that you don't. Only change your server name for public. Try changing back to My Minilogin Server for both. That may just get it.

[klinzhai]

After I finish reinstalling EQ (just in case... installing it to a different location) I'll change that over.

[Kirgothi]

Ok, I tried all of that and nothing has changed. After instalation, there was not a record in the account table for mini/mini. I added one. If I start everquest after getting the server started I am, once again, stuck at the "Logging into the server. Please wait..." screen.

If I copy patch_6.2.conf into opcodes.conf I can get past the login. Then I am facing the dreaded server selection screen with no servers in the list.

Are you sure there isn't anything else you are doing and just not thinking about Cavedude? It seems odd that while the serverpack doesn't create a record in the account table that you are not getting stuck at the login screen. Are you entering the record somehow? Is there anything else that you are doing?

Here are my files and output:
eqemu_config.xml
<?xml version="1.0">

<shortname>minilogin</shortname>
<longname>My Minilogin</longname>

That is what things look like when before I launch the client. If I launch the client, it changes the window to say 1 Server(s), 1 Client(s) Connected and adds the following line at the end of the window:
285771 New client from ip: 127.0.0.1 port: 3400

I don't know if this helps but if I click the "Admin" button on the server list, it times out and I get this line in the 1 Server(s), 1 Client(s) Connected window:
Unknown packet: .4233692 [***.***.***.***:15->0.0.0.0:0]
[OpCode 0x000e (OP_Unknown) Size=11]
00000: 00 08 00 00 00 00 00 00 - 00 00 00 | ...........

the ***'s are my real IP address, instead of the 127.0.0.1.
If there is any other data that may help, just ask, I will post it.
