I had a similar issue a few hours ago but was able to get around it after a bit of tinkering online.. I still have the issue with "unable to query name availability" but it seems you guys are stuck at a step before this one.
I had to make sure I opened things up for maria db. for my system it was on a different drive but i followed one of akka's posts:
"If you're having MYSQL path issues (Update script), make sure you set your path to the correct value. Make sure you're only adding this, not erasing the rest of the path variables
C:\Program Files\MariaDB 10.0\bin
https://www.howtogeek.com/118594/how...d-line-access/ "
i followed the instructions to add maria DB to the list
then i followed other instructions
run cmd and cd to the directory of your server
then in the cmd window run the "eqemu_server.pl" file
worked like a charm for me
I had to restart my pc a few times and update a few times but now the server is up and running and it recognizes the bot commands (prior to this they werent even recognized as commands for me)
but now i cant create the bots due to the name issue.
