New LAN-server : connecting with client problems
 

Hi!
I am totaly new to EverQuest (old enough to have played Ascherons Cal thou) and I have just recently started a small project to try and get a EverQuest server running, both from LAN and remote.

So first thing I did was to install a client following this wiki:
http://wiki.ezserver.online/Getting_Started

I tried it out and I could log into a remote server from the community
eqhost.txt
[LoginServer]
Host=login.eqemulator.net:5999

And from there I followed another "How to setup a Windows based EQ-server"
https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/wiki/Windows-Server

I made sure that the login.ini and eqemu_config.json file is updated with my local ip-adress of the computer running the EQ server.

Furthermore I made sure that the Clients eqhost.txt have the correct ip aswell.

So when I start my Client and log on - nor servers at all are showing.
I can se from the log on my server that my client did log on, it retrived the server list and disconnected when I did.

So my question is if I need to to anything else to setup my server?

Thank you in advance for answers and apologies in advance if this have been asked earlier

If your client points to your IP, it would only show your server.

You updated loginserver2?

Make sure you set 5999 or 5998 for client.

Would need more info really to give anything more than a complete guess. Also, this forum has a few LAN loginserver related issues read those they have some fixes such as client located in Program Files or using a specific IP rather than the network.

Well I did double check and triplecheck my ip-adresses and I did do the ultimate error and write in the wrong one.

So after correcting my error I can log in on my client, I see my server but listed as down.

I can connect,create a character and the the server-log comes up with the error "No zone server to boot up"

In the log of "EQEmu login server" I see an error aswell.
I will update this post from that computer with the exact error-log

EDIT:
Error-log

You have MySql running?

MySQL is running as a service yes.

I recently had this problem here was my solution. http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=42341

Make sure the longname and shortname you have in your config match the exact names you have in the database (exact match, character for character)
