World.exe not reading db.ini file

[Dr Zauis]

I see your database name is mysql? Is that the name you chose for your Database? Its usually eq or something. Also I have problems with world.exe closing too soon. So I dragged it into a dos box and got the unable to open
db.ini error. So I dragged a working world.exe from my 0.6.1DR1 server and got the same error so Im assuming its not possible to start world.exe that way. All I can say is they are talking about changing opcodes.config or something so maybe thats the problem.
