server connection issue

[arcticangel]

Lol i know iv had soooo many problems...

I got my server up and running but it was label'd "DRP says change me!" so i took some advise and i went and changed the config files that had "<longname>DRP says change me!</longname>" to "<longname>myserver</longname>" and after i changed it and the shortname, when i clickd run eqemu the 2 ms-dos prompts came up then on clicked off and then the remaining one told me :
---------------------------------------------
[04.23. - 17:57:45] Starting Log: logs/eqemu_debug_4012.log
[04.23. - 17:57:45] [LAUNCHER__INIT] Loading server configuration..
[04.23. - 17:57:47] [NET__WORLD] WorldConnection connect: Connecting to the server 127.0.0.1:9000 failed: TCPConnection::Connect(): connect() failed. Error: 10061
[04.23. - 17:57:47] [LAUNCHER__ERROR] worldserver.Connect() FAILED! Will retry.
[04.23. - 17:57:47] [LAUNCHER__INIT] Starting main loop...
----------------------------------------------
so im not sure what im suppost to do, I tried to change back everything i changed and i still get the same server error. what do i do?

<world>
<shortname>setme</shortname>
<longname>I Forgot To Edit My Config</longname>
</world>These are really the two main items in world that you need to set, the others will default to values that are probably correct. Shortname will be used for things like chat channels, client side log and ini file names.
The highlighted part is where you edit so it should be inside the > < .

Please post your .xml file here.

[bloodfiendserver]

this is the first file :
<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>emusp</shortname>
<longname>Blood Fiend</longname>

<!-- 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>bloodfiend</username>
<password>mypassword</password>
<db>emusp3</db>
</database>
</server>

and the second (im not sure which u need) :

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>setme</shortname>
<longname>Blood Fiend</longname>
</world>
</server>

My handle is subme503 on aim. I am at work now for some reason is not loading up at work. But I see 1 error
<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />

If I remeber that should be 9000 not 9080

[paaco]

9080 is the correct port. One thing I would say is to try Changing:

 <!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. -->
<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>bloodfiend</username>
<password>mypassword</password>
<db>emusp3</db>
</database>
</server>

to

 <!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. -->
<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>eq</username>
<password>eq</password>
<db>emusp3</db>
</database>
</server>

If that doesn't work then I suspect your are connecting from behind a router. If that is the case have a look at this.

[bloodfiendserver]

i fixed it to 9000 but it still isnt connecting

[kouhei]

The file that says eqemu_config.xml.full that file is the complete info need for the eqemu_config.xml the other file. What you should do is open the .xml.full and select all and paste into the other .xml file and then edit the port as 9000 and the other info needed.
