World not connecting to login

dzags · #1 10-19-2004, 04:06 AM

When I load my World.exe it goes through the normal load commands then says

Code:

TCP listening on: 192.168.0.4:9000
World server listening on: 192.168.0.4:9000

For some reason it won't connect to the eqemu login server.

Code:

[LoginServer]
loginserver=newlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginport=5994
worldname=ApexLanCrew
worldaddress=192.168.0.4
locked=false
account=
password=

I know I'm not using my external Ip on any of those, but we had it set up like this this weekend and it allowed for only people on the LAN to join in, which is what we want.... but for some reason after I set up the server on this new computer it will not allow my world to connect to the login. Help please

update on this problem...

Loginserver.ini

Code:

[LoginServer]
loginserver=newlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginserver2=newlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginport=5999
loginport2=5999
worldname=apexlancrew
worldaddress=192.168.0.4
locked=false
account=
password=

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=20
Unavailzone=

This results in my world saying

Code:

TCP listening on: 192.168.0.4:9000
World server listening on: 192.168.0.4:9000

However, if I change my loginserver.ini....

Code:

[LoginServer]
loginserver=newlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginserver2=newlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginport=5999
loginport2=5999
worldname=apexlancrew
worldaddress=192.168.0.4
locked=false
account=
password=

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=20
Unavailzone=

[ChatChannelServer]
worldshortname=
chataddress=
chatport=

When I run my world.exe it says

Code:

TCP listening on: 192.168.0.4:9000
World server listening on: 192.168.0.4:9000
Setting World to MiniLogin Server Type
Connected to loginserver: newlogin1.eqemulator.net:5999

Why is it that with the extra chatserver part at the bottom of my loginserver it sets it to minilogin server type yet without it I can't connect to the login server. I don't want to have a minilogin server and I am not running minilogin so I am wondering why its doing this.

There are three issues here:

The Loginserver type is set to MiniLogin if you have done:

Code:

INSERT INTO variables (varname, value, information) VALUES ('LoginType', 'Minilogin', 'Set this to Minilogin to login using a minilogin server :)');

Try:

Code:

delete from variables where varname='LoginType';

to fix that.

Second issue. If you don't have a [ChatChannelServer] server block (and your world was compiled with the directive IRC included) the world initialisation doesn't execute a bit of code (LoginServerInfo=1 ), so the world never connects to the login server.

Last thing, you should be using loginport=5994, not 5999.
