What were you doing before you blew it up.

this is my database from 2012. I quit working on it because i was sick, and figured id start it up again. So i havent really done anything to it since then, it did work with the older server from back then. It says its creating the files but it stops at base data then shared_memory shuts down with no error ect...

I get an error when shared memory runs but it blinks out before you can see it and restarts on its own. I posted it earlier in the thread it was about not being able to open a shared memory file. It errored on the Items table.

For some reason it restarts after that and runs through until base data.

My friend whos running the exact same database as me on x64 says he cant get it working on 32 bit either, so im wondering if its not my database after all

Since this is a 2012 db..has you sourced in all of the updates since?

yes, my friend did it, and hes running the exact database on x64 binaries, is there anything specific that may make it run on x64 and not x86, like a specific file he may not have sourced or?

or could it be a memory issue with the server like would i have to edit anything in the source to make it work with extra items and spells?

Resourced my database, no files are appearing in the shared folder and im getting this error from world

nevermind, still getting the same error as before, cannot open shared memory file for this file segment

Ok after i removed all the extra junk from the folder im just getting this error when I launch world after shared memory.

If there aren't any files in the shared directory it does no good to try and run world, it will fail as you've seen.

Make sure you have a logs directory in your server directory, delete all files from the shared directory, then run shared_memory from a command prompt so you can see everything it outputs. Then, look in the logs directory to see if it wrote anything there.

Post the contents of the shared folder and any text it printed or wrote to a log file.

i cant get em to print in log files but i got the screen shot.




HOWEVER if I run my whole server I get this error on world im guessing however thats cause the items arent loaded right, i get the same error using the PEQ database as mine so that shouldnt be it

The line in the source that error is pointing at is does that mean the name of the memory file in shared is wrong?

		if(file == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) {
			EQ_EXCEPT("Shared Memory", "Could not open a file for this shared memory segment.");
		}

did you copy eqtime.cfg into your server folder from the source?

That won't error out the shared memory.

Re-run cmake and post a screenie of the output there, si vous plais.

(You don't need to make changes..I'm just curious what is being found.)

Also if anyone could do me this favor, compile the 32bit server with vc++ 2013 and send me the exes maybe this is a problem with VC++ 2010

those are built with 2013? they are not valid win 32 applications, u sure u did 32bit

yeah u might wanna recheck em, im on xp and its saying not a valid win 32 application
