Cannot Log in to own server

[gladimus]

OK got my server up yet it kicks me to login when i try to enter....any suggestions?

 

[Yoda007]

1. Are you using EQ Titanium which is NOT PATCHED ?

2. Are you sure that you followed the guide step by step ?

 

[gladimus]

YES and YES!

Think i may have gotten it but still won't flag me as a GM

 

[JTPlayah]

To Flag yourself as a GM, you can MANUALLY edit the Database file and make your Level 250. Then in game #gm on . Poof, you a GM

I don't have GM commands in game, says my access isn't high enough, and i dud the GRANT ALL PRIVILIGES ON stuff

 

[JTPlayah]

Grant All Privilages just lets the account name that you gave to the user of the SQL Database do all the things it needs to do. has nothing to do with being a GM.

OK, so your IN the game on the Emulator right? Ok Great. Now, go to your Emu Server, hopefully you have MySql-CC or somefront end that you can edit your database with.

Load it up, view the tables in your Database. Choose the account Table. Find YOUR account.. scroll right until you see the status record, change yours to 250.

Log back in and then #gm on

If you don't have a Front End editor.. then do this....

goto c:\mysql\bin (if that is where you put MySQL)

type in mysql -u (database user name prolly eq) -p (so it will prompt you for the password) -(name of database)

ie:
c:\mysql\bin> mysql -u buzzy -p -peq
password: xxxxxx

now your at the mysql prompt.

now enter the following....

mysql> update account set status = '250' where name = 'your account name';
Query OK, 1 Row Affected etc...

mysql> quit <--- Type this in to quit mysql

Got it thanks JT, any reason why sometimes when i zone world.exe crashes?

 

[JTPlayah]

Could be a lot of things....

First off, what zones?

Second.. What version of the emulator are you running, 070-xxx?

How did you install it? Did you use Cavedudes package?

If you did, did you enter ALL of the SQL updates that were in the changelog.txt file that came with the emulator version that you downloaded?

^^^^ Is VERY important that you got ALL of them!

Lastly, what kind of computer are you running it on, processor, memory...?

TBH i followed Yoda's post exactly

Installed Cavedudes

and one other thing after i registered sever it said to put that information in the loginsettings.ini which i don't have

lastly i am running a AMD 3200 1 GB ram, and cable internet

 

[JTPlayah]

It's inside the eqemu_config.xml file...

<-- Login Server Information -->
<host> eqemulator.net</host>
<port> 5998 </port>
<account> Your Login Name that you registered</account>
<password> Your Password that you registered </password>

I also have a loginserver.ini file.. This is used if you are running a MINILOGIN SERVER

###Your current configuration is as follows:

loginserver.ini:
[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqemulator.net
loginport=5998
worldname=Your Server name (Do not use Server in the name)
worldaddress=Your IP Address from your ISP
locked=false
account=your account name as above
password=your password as above

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=(Legit, Non-Legit etc...)
Unavailzone=
[ChatChannelServer]

worldshortname= I don't use these 3
chataddress=
chatport=

[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Public
ServerPort=5998


and a file called db.ini that is NOT needed anymore, so disregard

###Your current database configuration is as follows:
##db.ini:

[Database]
host=127.0.0.1
user=your DATABSE user name for the databse, not a character
password= the password you gave name above
database=peq <- The database your using PEQ or EQ

and a config.ini file <== This is no longer needed as well

[Database]
host=localhost
user=Your database suer name
password=your database password
database=peq (again peq or eq)
compression=off

[General]
quests=C:\EQEmu828\Quests\ (Where your quest files are located)

wordwrap=1

You may not even need the INI files. I really haven't tested hard without them, but did try removing themonce snd couldn't get to login server.. but then I am running a Mini Login, not a Public server.

What is your servers name and again, what VERSION are you running?

Did you UPDATE the Files, the .exe files, or just running right from Cavedudes setup package?

 

[gladimus]

Here is what my xml looks like not quite sure how to find version number

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>Glad</shortname>
<longname>Gladimus Non-Legit (Beta)</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>eq</username>
<password>eq</password>
<db>eq</db>
</database>
</server>

 

[JTPlayah]

Thats you ENTIRE .XML FIle?

 

[gladimus]

yup.

I can login and play tho

and no i haven't done updates just went straight from cavesududes

 

[JTPlayah]

Are you running the Server from a Batch File?

Does the World.exe window stay open when it crashes? If so, can you copy and paste what it says when it crashes?

Read thru your log files too, this may point you in the correct direction.
