sigh, error #2006

[dablasta]

when i load up world.exe, i get this error:
Error #2006: Mysql server has gone away
well, my mysql server is running, i already refreshed the db, don't know what else i could do

I haven't been able to get error 2006. I can simulate the error message that says "MySql server has gone away" by not running mysqld. Although I also get the "Failed to connect to database" message too.

Another way to simulate this is to not have db.ini point to your database (usually its 127.0.0.1) or not use mysql admin user/password.

So if you first message is "Failed to connect..." then its:
1) mysqld not running
2) db.ini not pointing to 127.0.0.1 or wherever you database is
3) user/password is not a mysql admin user (db.ini)

adding to that, it gets to the second login packet and the zone 9x said dropping client

EQEMu 0.2.3 (the latest) does not support any of the patching that has occurred after the 13th. It will crash upon entering the zone, after character selection. So, if you've patched up in the last week you're goning to have to wait until 0.2.4 comes out. Hopefully, this will be soon. Until then, you can play on GotFrags (as soon as it gets back online :P )
