ok got the apache server up, I got the IT WORKS message.. now trying to find the PEQ editor install instructions again in forums.. I somehow saw the PEQ login screen in a webwindow but the user/passwords are not found, so somewhere in the install I cant find the user/pass thing... tryed admin/password combo no go so far... im a notch farther now need to figure out the rest of the peq-php install

Step 5:

Source schema.sql (in the editor's /sql directory) into your database.

also im getting password errors saying cant log into localhost

you'll need to be very specific as to where you are getting errors and exactly what they are (verbatim, preferably) or no one will be able to assist you.

what's telling you that your username/password is wrong? mysql? is it when you attempt to source in schema.sql?

yea now i cant even get eq server to launch its stating bad password... man i think i screwed up something big now.... I cant seem to find the file that has the user/passsword settings... ARG!!!! so it seems I have mysql and apache running. at this point im going to experiment on my laptop and see where I can go with this... I followed the install guide for apache as was suggested it worked but think somehow the user password got screwed up there... im going to uninstall apache and see if i can at least get what I had befor up and running again, the EQEmuGUI program I can launch the "start MYsql" but am getting errors once i launch EQEmu server thats now where Im seeing bad password errors in the server window..... rebooting now

after deleting apache server, the EQEmu server seems happy again... so somehow I screwed up the apache user/password thingy

nothing related directly to apache (or php) is prompting you for a username or password. the database (mysql) will require a login, however.

your database user/pass will be located in your eqemulator directory in a file named eqemu_config.xml. it may not be the same as your root login information, but if you only use mysql for the emulator, it probably is.
