1017 error on my server

[Frienzied]

Ok, I didn't patch to latest or anything. My server is the only one that gets the 1017 error no matter who tries to log into it. Any idea or any additional information you need? I can't even log into my server. Thanks in advance.

What server version ?

Public or minilogin ?

Post the output of your world and zone.exe processes

Which db are you using ?

Post your .ini and boot5zone.bat files

Then maybe someone can help you.

REM: This file requires your real IP in the place of "YourIP" when you are connecting
REM: To the EQEmu Loginserver.

REM: When you are using minilogin, Replace all IP Addresses to say 127.0.0.1

REM: If you still get errors try using localhost instead of 127.0.0.1

Loginserver.ini

### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to.
### --- Leave the account and password field BLANK.

### --- Public Login is un-supported as is LAN playing. We recommend using the eqemulator.net Loginserver ALWAYS.

### --- NOTE: You can NOT use the word "Server" in worldname.
### --- NOTE2: the word "Server" is added to each server automatically.

I think that's all I have. Thanks! Please help!

Ok I'm now able to log into my server because I changed the localhost on the boot5zones ini to 127.0.0.1, now I can't zone in. Everything is the same as it was on the boot5zones screen, when I try to zone in it lists what zone I'm trying to zone into and everything. So now I'm stuck again, heh.

Could be a Nat issue, check out the Nat thread and make sure thats not the issue, also I have run across a couple people reciently where they had this issue because there ISP dosnt allow hosting.

rename your quest folder to q and see what happens.

Well, I resourced the database and I'm having the 1017 problem again! =(

If you're using minilogin did you forget to re-add the eqemu user? I've done that more than once when resourcing the DB.

Try starting mysql (I.E. Start > Run > C:\mysql\bin\mysql -u <your username> -p <your DB name>) then enter the command

INSERT INTO account SET name='eqemu', password='eqemu', status=200;

Hope that helps.
