Zone Unavailable
I followed the Guide.pdf by TechGuy and originally used the PEQ database and was not able to get a Zone to Launch?
So I tried the ax_classic and I get to the same point as before, I can login and connect to the server, create a Character. But when I try to login I get Zone Unavailable. It appears that even though the Dynamic Zones are loaded, no zone is loaded into the memory space? I really tried searching for over a week before posting here. Any help would be appreciated. eqemu_config.xml information Code:
<?xml version="1.0"> Please let me know if you see something I am not? I get this error if I am on the same network or attaching over the internet through the FW, as I have an internal DNS server I have ruled out the FW as an issue. I will post the information from the World.exe in the next POST as I ran out of space :) Thanks for your help in advance.. :) |
Here the results from the Command Prompt screen on the Server.
Also I have it running on Windows Server 2003 sp2, and the client is on Windows XP Pro. I have also ruled out the client as I can connect to other servers on the eqemulator.net. Output from World.exe Code:
[Debug] Starting Log: logs/eqemu_debug_world_3228.log |
Hi horton who
If you are trying to use minilogin I think you need to change 'eqemulator.net' to your local address. i.e. in your case 192.168.0.3 in your eqemu_config.xml file. Does your eqhost.txt file contain Host=192.168.0.3:5998 or is it 5999? Which version of the emulator are you using? I had no problems with 0.7.0-992 with either database but I can not get ax_classic to work with 0.7.0-1070. I get 'zone unavailable' after selecting a character. PEQ seems to work fine with the latest version on both XP and Vista. When using PEQ chech the 'launcher' variable using your MySQL query browser. If it is blank run this: insert into launcher values ('zone', 5); and make sure 'variables' has minilogin as the login type. If not run this: insert into variables (varname, value, information) values ('LoginType', 'Minilogin', 'Set to either Public or Minilogin in value column'); Let me know if any of that helps, I'll try and help further if you can't get it going. |
I am using EQEmu-0.7.0-1070
I am not using the minilogin I am using eqemulator.net So the Variables table is set to Public I am currently using ax_classic, but I originally used PEQ and both gave me the same error. I will try checking the Quote:

Have you tried just firing up a few zone.exe's alone?
Before I got eqlauncher figured out and the way I wanted it I'd just write a script (in bash but you can use a .bat) to start a few of them. |
I used a more recent version of EQEmu and I had the same "That zone is not available" problem.
The fix is simple, just download the 992 version and delete your other folder. Configure the .xml file and everything as you normally would. There's no need to re-install anything else. |
cheers for the fix
Downloaded the 992 version , and bang game loaded straight up :)
Cheers....now back to the letting outside ppl in problem /scratch head |
Well, the worst part for me is that I cant determine a "critical" error from a "ignore it" error in logs. So lets see what we can see here....
First thing that stuck out to me is the absurd amount of errors at the end and the lines where it says its unable to convert the OP_Codes. Another one was the bogus character "Brin". Maybe tring to dump your database and your eq cache might clear up the Brin problem. Are you using Titanium and not other version of the client. Lots of erros refering to op codes to me would seem like your version of EQ is different from what the emu is compatible with. As far as the difference in version of the emu, like 992 versus current, can lead to errors, but should cause constant errors like the inability to connect. The devs do strive to at lease make sure that there isnt a huge difference in code that causes things to break more so than fix. 99% of the time that a newer version of the the emu will not work for someone is simply due to the lack of proper sql updates to your database to make sure that everything is compatible. If you look in your changelog, you will see these sql updates that must be put in for things to work. The most significant one recently is going to be the implementation of the graveyard, or from what I have read. Lots of people had errors with the emu recently when they followed my guide. I never covered reading the changelog for sql updates, so people never looked into it and just let things ride, and couldnt get thier servers to work. The bad part is that there is a million of reason why stuff doesnt work, and its hard to determine what it is if your not the one that set up the server in the first place. You have to wonder what people did exactly when setting it up, and if they did it right or wrong. But thats what we are here for, to help you when you run into issues. Let me know how things go, I will more than likely be checking in until after the begining of the year, then its some more away time so I will help out until then! |
