When I am following your tutorial, i get to the very end, and when i run world.exe it tells me that mysql server rejected the username and password. I checked all the ini files, and my account/pass match up. Any idea of how to fix this?

Ok, I think I got it to accept my username and pass, but now there is more problems. I get alot of Database Errors saying that it lost connection to the database and that it is trying to recover. When it gets to loading the next item, it gives me the same error. Any idea of why it might do this? (this is my first time trying to setup a server, sry if I sound dumb)

er yeah im sorry I left out one tiny part in the instructions.

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON eqdr2.* TO [username]@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '[password]' WITH GRANT OPTION;

on that step, I forgot to put in the dr2 after eq, so redo that and it should fix that.

Im glad you pointed that out im sorry to have left it out.

Hmm, I did that but I am still having problems. I think that it is just not connecting to the database. After almost every command it says 'Database Error: Lost connection, attempting to recover...
DB Query error #2006: MySQL server has gone away...'

I'm not sure how to fix this.

I did everything the way your instructions say to do them, and I am still having the problem with 2 of the 3 not being found. Install BDI, and Install-BDB-Mysql. I have even went thru and uninstalled and redownloaded everything. I am also getting the username and password problem when starting world.exe, ect. please help. thanks.
