Problem starting server

[Saragoth]

Hey all. I would like to preface this by saying that I have been pouring over the forums for the past two days, trying to follow the guide exactly to create my EqEmu server. I feel like I am very close, but I am running into a few difficulties.

When I click on my Start.bat file to start my server, the World.exe application shuts down after about 15 seconds. I checked the log and got this:

---------------------------------------------

and also this:

I searched these problems on the forums and the most common solution I found was to make sure my DB files were properly downloaded and sourced...but as far as I can tell, I downloaded and sourced the revision .sql file correctly (I even retried).

If it helps you to know, I am using Perl v. 5.8.9. I also gathered my DB/Maps/Quests etc files via Tortoise SVN.

Also, if it helps, here is my eqconfig log:

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>Legions</shortname>
<longname>Legions</longname>

<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. -->
<!--<address>Serving Machines IP</address>-->
<!--<localaddress>127.0.0.1</localaddress>-->

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<account>root</account>
<password>*******</password>
</loginserver>

<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
<key>some long random string</key>

<!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service. -->
<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>

<!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. -->
<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>root</username>
<password>*******</password>
<db>peq</db>
</database>
</server>

Can anyone lead me in the right direction towards fixing these errors? I do apologize if this is somewhere in the forums that I did not see, but I have been pretty much self-dependent up until this point (thanks to the clear cut guide). Thanks in advance!

I have still been searching for solutions, and I came across a post which inspired me to change the port for my LoginServerInformation in my eqemu_config file. I changed it from 3306 to 5998, and left the DB port set as 3306.

Now when I click on my Start.bat command, I get this:

I read a post that said that same error message often means you have corrupted DB files, but I don't see how any of my files could be corrupted...I downloaded them properly, as far as I know. And if I made a MISTAKE by changing the port number in my eqemu_config file to 3306 (instead of 599 then you should know that when it's set to 5998, world.exe eventually crashes after about 15 seconds.

I hope I'm providing enough info for any takers
