At my wits end...

[Black Heart]

I will start this by saying that to call me a noob would probably do an injustice to the noobs. I have absolutely no experience with MySQL or any other sort of database set up...

I am using the EqEmuServer pack installer... (Im thinking I should be able to do this, right...)

every time I try to log into my server to start the game I get this error:

---------------------------------------------
[10.05. - 12:31:44] Starting Log: logs/eqemu_debug_2852.log
[10.05. - 12:31:44] [LAUNCHER__INIT] Loading server configuration..
[10.05. - 12:31:45] [NET__WORLD] WorldConnection connect: Connecting to the server 127.0.0.1:9000 failed: TCPConnection::Connect(): connect() failed. Error: 10061

[10.05. - 12:31:45] [LAUNCHER__INIT] Starting main loop...

I have looked through most of the threads that address the 10061 error and have adjusted my set ups accordingly. Nothing has changed.

My Loginserver.ini:
###Your current configuration is as follows:

My config.ini

[Database]

[General]

my db.ini

###Your current database configuration is as follows:
##db.ini:

[Database]

Now I have no intent of putting this up for public login. We are on dial-up with no high speed access in sight. Just want to set up a server for the family to use on LAN.

I appologise in advance if this is too simple or if Im too much trouble. I jus wanna play EQ again...
