Cannot start server

Post your configuration file and don't forget to remove your passwords!

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>centauri</shorname>
<longname>centauri Semi-Legit</longname>

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>eqemulator.net</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password>xxxxxxxxxxxx</password>
</loginserver>

<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
<key>Random long 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>root</username>
<password></password

</server>

If its not overly obvious I am completely new at this stuff. Thank you for the help.

How do I delete posts that I have placed here?

In red below, I marked the password section you filled out with Xs. You don't want to have anything at all in that part. Remove all of those Xs (or any password you might have there).

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>eqemulator.net</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password>xxxxxxxxxxxx</password>
</loginserver>

Should look like this:

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>eqemulator.net</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>

I cleared all of the X's and I still receive the same message.

This is what it looks like now.

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>centauri</shorname>
<longname>centauri Semi-Legit</longname>

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>eqemulator.net</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>

<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
<key>Random long 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>root</username>
<password>"Removed for posting"</password
<db>peq</db>
</database>
</server>

Just wanted to let you know that I saw this line and it is fixed already...

I went ahead and copied the config file directly from the site as opposed to typing it up myself. Once this was done then I encountered no problems loading up the server. Thank you for all of your help. Now to find any other problems!
