Stuck trying to make server help!

[rlie_0]

Ok, something just corrected itself or I managed to get it down right, so it cleaned with 9 out of 9 and built 9 out of 9.

Now im on step 10 copying files over.

Im looking for

Chatserver.exe

That file appears to be missing. The other 4

eqlaunch.exe, World.exe, Zone.exe and EMuShareMem.dll

Were all there. Has anyone else ran into that issue before?

[c0ncrete]

yes, it doesn't exist. it's UCS.exe now.

[rlie_0]

And for the patch ones, unable to find

patch_Anniversary.conf,
patch_HoT.

we not support those 2 anymore? the rest of them were there.

[Uleat]

yes, those were deprecated as well.


look in your peq folder and there should be an eqtime.cfg file too.

it's not required to run, but it will eliminate an error that you will get without it.

[rlie_0]

There any other hidden files that will make this less painful anyone can sugguest I copy over into the server folder?

[rlie_0]

So im working on the .sql part of this, the guide told me to start at 1711 and work my way up the highest numbers, covering each required and opational ones are not as needed but I can if id like. Upon attempting my frist one it fails, saying this.

[Err] 1146 - Table 'peq.account' doesn't exist
[Err] ALTER TABLE `account` ADD `time_creation` INT UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL AFTER `suspendeduntil`;
[Err] 1146 - Table 'peq.account' doesn't exist
[Err] UPDATE `account` SET `time_creation` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP() WHERE `time_creation` = 0;
[Msg] Finished - Unsuccessfully
--------------------------------------------------

From what I can see, Im missing file folders or something any sugguestions to fix this, and do I repeat each step for each .sql scource Ill input?

[lerxst2112]

You source updates newer than the initial database you installed. So, if you started with 2294 then you want the updates from 2295 and up.

But, if peq.account doesn't exist then you did something wrong in the initial sourcing, like you missed load_player.sql or did it incorrectly.

[rlie_0]

When I go back to the CMD, get logged into that the errors im getting are

ERROR: 1062(23000): Duplicate entry `1 - This one came after i entered

source peqdb_rev2294.sql


When i enter

source load_player.sql

I end up with a lot of rows looking like this

Quary OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)

with this in the middle of it all

Quary OK, 21 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Records: 21 Duplicates: 0 Warning: 0

and then I end up back at

mysql>

Was there a step I missed?

[lerxst2112]

Open your database in Navicat or whatever tool you use and look for both a database named peq and a table named account.

Sourcing over what you already did will give you a lot of errors and duplicates. In order to start fresh you'd need to delete the database or empty it and then source again.

[Noport]

mysql -u root -p
Create Database peq; this will make sure you created a directory for your peq database. if you have a peq directory you may skip this step.
use peq (Hit enter and you will see a short note saying "Database changed")
then type
source load_player.sql

[rlie_0]

The step im having trouble with is making the database...I go into the cmd window and it says I have made the databases...no clue where they are at tho. when I head into Navicat, and open Localhost_3306 then go down to peq, the Tables, Views, Functions, Events, Query tabs within it are clear of anything inside them. This correct or there something im missing?

When i go into the cmd window i do this;

cd/peqdb
mysql u-root -p
Enter password: XXXXXXXXXXXX
Create database peq; (I get an error states its already there)
Use peq

source peq_rev2294.sql (wait awhile)

Then finally enter

source load_player.sql

then close the window and look in Navicat. Once I get into there I look under local connection, open it, look at the peq database, nothing inside it...

[Derision]

I don't use Navicat, but from a command prompt you can verify if your database is there by doing this:

C:\Users\Steve>mysql -u root -p
Enter password: ******

That is just verifying the peq database exists, it has tables inside it, and the last SELECT command just displays some data from the zone table.

You can verify if there is data in the other tables by running similar commands on them, e.g.

select * from npc_types LIMIT 10;
select * from spawn2 LIMIT 10;

If you really want to redo your database, go into mysql via a command prompt and do:

drop database peq;
create database peq;
use peq;

and then source peq_rev2294.sql, load_player.sql, load_bots.sql (if you want bots), then all the .sql files in utils/sql/svn between 2295 and 2497:

source 2299_required_inspectmessage_fields.sql
source 2300_optional_loot_changes.sql
source 2340_required_maxbuffslotspet.sql
source 2361_required_qs_rule_values.sql

source 2448_optional_stun_proc_aggro_rule.sql
source 2471_required_aa_updates.sql
source 2482_required_start_zones.sql

There is no need to actually re-install the MySQL application to wipe your database and start again.
