I wanted to post some usefull info.

I am close to getting my server working. Here are some problems and fixes that I have.

I had problems with the access denied when trying grant privileges. One problem I noticed in the mYSQL startup info was that it said my.ini was missing. I searched my windows directory and found it./ I then pasted it into the c:\Mysql directory as well as c:\mysql\bin directory. It then was able to find the my.ini file in the startup info of mysql. So the usrname and password started working externally.

I then noticed that when I dialed up I lost connectivity to MYSQL when running world.exe. I am running XP. First problem was the firewall which was running on a different network connection, but was nevertheless causing the disconnect from MYSQL. I ran a search on firewall in XP and fugured out how to turn it off on all network connections.

Ohh also when connecting through dialup, all references to localhost stopped working. I changed them to 127.0.0.1 and they started working. this seems to be soem kind of DNS problem with my dialup-thats my best guess.



Now world.exe runs fine and connects to the database. Boot5zones.bat comes up without error.

Only problem I have now is that I cannot login to the server with the everquest gaem either through the local setup or the normal setup that connects to the eqemu servers. I shoudl have this nailed down pretty soon.

I hope. /crosses fingers.

I hope this was able to help anybody else out there.

good luck
