Server not serving all the Zones?

[hackwizofcent]

I've just put together a server got everything up and going... but.... one problem.... I can't go into zones like halas and others as well..... the server says the zone could not be found in database.... I've tried re-installing EQ and the server as well but it didn't work... I've also updated my DB file.... WHAT DO I DO!?!??!?

[Lurker_005]

What DB are you ussing, when is it giving you the error, are there any errors in your world or zone windows?

This was an attempt to log on a char. that I JUST created... char was a barbarian shaman that stats out in halas... I start the server...I start EQW... then I created my char. only to find when I try to zone from the char. select screen I get kicked right to my desktop... I had NO trouble starting my human in quenos, everything done GREAT... but.... not so with the barbarian in halas. YOUR REQUEST FOR THE WORLD.EXE AND ZONE WINDOWS ARE BELOW!!!

Looks like a bug or something causing the server to drop the client. To see if the database might somehow be causing the problem, try loading hte default DB and see if it still boots you.

Nope Didn't work... I tried the original DB and still didn't work... then I tried your DB... and no luck.... I think I may have a problem with running the server on Windows XP??? any sugestions??? any problem running the server with Windows XP Professional?

Sorry Hack, it is not an XP prob. I just logged in to Halas on my server. I run XP proffesional. (Until Someone can tell me how to get the client running under linux I have to.) So there has to be someother problem on your machine. Is the halas map there. I noticed that the server said it could not find it.

Map: Maps\halas.map not found.
Zone ID = 29

You do not need the map files. The map files where to enable pathing of the spawns on servers but was never finished. It would work for a bit and then stop working.

Oh to bad. I would like to see things moving about. That is one of the fun things in eqLive sometimes you accually have to chase something a ways. I play rangers alot. Tracking is fun. Even if it does sometimes lead you right through an enemy camp. lol
