 I did everything the tutorial said, but i can't seem to get world.exe and boot5zones.bat to stay open, they keep closing,   however when I go into c:\games\eqemu\eqgame patchme   it starts up and I can even type in "eqemu" for the user name and password but I can't find any servers at all in the list, its all empty, plz help.
 
 Also, what exactly am I supposed to see when I type this in, cause I don't think it came out right for me.
 "world.exe flag eqemu 200"

 Execlent install directions!!  I got my server up and running and can login and play! Sweet.  Thanks for the great work!
 One questions however...
 
 When I create a spell caster I go to the merchants in the guild and .... No Spells  :cry: .  Is there a database that you recommend sourcing to correct this issue?
 
 Thanks in advance.
 
 Todd

 Look in the Worldbuilding forum for Drawde's itemsbooks.zip.
 It might be linked in my sig.  I don't know if that one works.

 When I try and start world.exe i get,  "Error: #1045 Access denied for user: 'myusername@localhost'   <Using password: YES>"
 And when I run "boot5zones.bat" several windows open and close so fast i can't see what they say but I know it ain't good.                           So please someone help me, don't leave me in the cold.

 Do the grant command again and BE SURE THAT YOU ARE ROOT!!  mysql --user-root or some command like that.

 I don't know what you guys are doing different but I still get error #1045.  I tried re-entering the GRANT command like you said and there's no difference.  I still can't start up world.exe or boot5zones.              Also, when I tried and did "world.exe flag eqemu 200"  I get some weird error messages, something about reading the readme.txt.                                        I can login the game using eqemu as the password and user name, but I just don't see any servers in the list |

 Start a new post in the Win32 Server Support Forum  with the steps you take, and where you get your 1045 error.

 Woohoo!  I can now see my server and I can now load world.exe and boot5zones!       However, when I try to login to my server, it seems to be loading it, but before it gets to a loading screen it pops up with an EQ message that says this:                                                                                                                 "Error 1017: Cannot login to the EverQuest server.    You may need to re-run the Update Patch. Repeatedly seeing this message indicates a loss of connectivity to the patch server. This is usually temporary."                                  Please tell me I'm not the only one that has this problem, thanks for the help. |

				 HAHAHA :D 
 hehe... i fixed it... obviously my Spacebar was messed up... did two spaces after the eqemu part to the 200 so it looked like this  
world.exe flag eqemu  200 .... hehe shoulda looked like this 
world.exe flag eqemu 200 ... just the little bit of difference there made it not work right... so try to double check yourself's like i shoulda did    sorry for the waste of space. 
best regards

 Double space bar doesn't show up, but I get the idea.

				 after installing mysql 
 this is something that is posted several other places, however after messing around with it for the better part of 12 hours or so and nearly smashing my computer and reading as much as i could take on the documetation of mysql from the makers-     i found that getting permissions for mysql using version 3.23.57 is accomplished simply by hitting Start (on the toolbar) opening a dos prompt and type:      
 
c:\mysql\bin\mysql -u root -p 
when the password entry shows up- hit enter because there isnt one yet. 
 
go on with the permission granting as usual from the above posts- but with an initial install with windows this is the default all permissions user- 
 
 hope it helps |
