Failed to connect to database: Error: Can't connect to mySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

mysql isn't running, or db.ini has the wrong information.





Also from the readme:

4. Now is the moment of truth (time to run it and see if it works!)

In the EQEmu Directory run "world.exe"
A window should pop up saying :

LoginServer.ini read.
Using database 'eq' at localhost
Loading items...done.
Loading guild ranks...done.
World server listening on: YourIP:9000
Connected to LoginServer: eqlogin.eqemu.net:5999

If you receive a message saying Access Denied blahblah@localhost blah blah error. Try running Winmysqladmin.exe in the background.
If that does not work reboot your machine

And if that does not help. Open mysql.exe ( found in c:\mysql\bin )
Type in: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* to '%'@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '%'; (press enter)
Close out of mysql.exe

IMPORTANT NOTE: CONTINUE ONLY IF THERE ARE NO ERROR MESSAGES

If you get an error, stop and figure it out. Trying to continue only confuses the issue. And make sure you looked back and find the FIRST error.
