if anyone can help me out it would be much appreciated, I really have no idea what to do. Thanks in advance

Do you have a directory named logs where your serverstart.bat file is?

[wulnar]

I do not. Where should it go and what should be in it? Sorry I dont know much of what Im doing with this

[Congdar]

create the folder is all you need to do. \EQEmu\logs

[wulnar]

i created the folder in the same place as the serverstart.bat and i got the same error? should the .bat file be in a certain directory? i just have it on my desktop

[wulnar]

actually it works despite the error. odd. thank you very much!

[trevius]

You probably need to make sure the logs folder is all lowercase and not "Logs", as I am pretty sure it is case sensitive.

[wulnar]

it is lower case and it fixed all of my problems with the logs but now im running into other problems where i cant get passed character select and my world.exe says "client disconnected (not active in process)" the only other error I see is with loading the eqtime.cfg

[wolfwalkereci]

Which client are you using to connect with?
Tho if you can get to character select I think the opcode wouldnt be the issue.
I had that at first myself.
I just went through the process of getting my stuff working and it was frustrating to say to least. If you want to discuss it over vent or something let me know.

[wulnar]

anything you could do to help would be very much appreciated. I'm using EQ titanium. Ive played with the same files on a different eq emu so i doubt thats the problem. ive found other errors now saying that "my character is destroyed before reaching the connected state." and "Client sent initial zone packet, but we never got their player info from the database". so maybe its a problem with the db?

[lerxst2112]

I'm gonna go ahead and guess at this since it's a common problem.

Run this SQL against your database. If you get an error on the first line, just run the last two.

ALTER TABLE `altadv_vars` ADD `account_time_required` INT UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL AFTER `clientver`;
ALTER TABLE `account` ADD `time_creation` INT UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL AFTER `suspendeduntil`;
UPDATE `account` SET `time_creation` = UNIX_TIMESTAMP() WHERE `time_creation` = 0;

[wulnar]

sorry im kind of a noob at this but, how do i do that exactly?

[wolfwalkereci]

Do you have navicat installed? if so then
open navicat
double click on your peq db so its name turns yellow
click on Query then New Query
copy paste the part lerxst2112 posted.
Might only need to use the 3rd line with the UPDATE

[wulnar]

ok got it thank you so much to all of you that helped out. it is very much appreciated!
