Server is Locked
 

:x

I've starting running a server, but every time I attempt to login, it is locked. I've checked in the LoginServer.cfg file, and locked is set to false. WHat gives?

are your zones booting up?

How do you tell? The batch file runs and then everything closes, so I assume it finishes with no errors. This is what it looks like:

start zone . phenix.homeip.net 7995 192.168.1.3
start zone . phenix.homeip.net 7996 192.168.1.3
start zone . phenix.homeip.net 7997 192.168.1.3
start zone . phenix.homeip.net 7998 192.168.1.3
start zone . phenix.homeip.net 7999 192.168.1.3

I'm fairly sure that they aren't loading properly, because when I use the admin tool to look at "Zone Servers" it is empty. How can I fix this thing?

If the windows close, the zones have failed to load.

Under XP, do start/run/cmd

then type cd <the directory/folder where your zone.exe is>

then type

zone . phenix.homeip.net 7995 192.168.1.3

Zone should report the error(s) without the window closing.

Aye, if loaded directly through the command prompt, any program that errors will not immediatly close. So, load as many as you need from there(usually 2-5) to check errors.

okay, the zones weren't loading properly. The error looks like this:

[Status] Loading npcs
Error: EMuShareMem: pDLLLoadNPCTypes: iMaxNPCTypeID > MMF_MAX_NPCTYPE_ID
You need to increase the define in NPCTypes.h.
[Error] Loading npcs FAILED!

Does that mean there aren't enough slots for NPCs and I should increase the max value in the include file before compiling? Or is there a simpler solution?

Yes, just increase the define and recompile. I had to do the exact same thing first time.

I'm not exactly sure how to go about doing that. Anybody point me in the right direction?

Actually, nevermind. I wasn't aware that it was written in C. Easy stuff, this. Thanks everybody for all your help.

Does anybody know where I can find <mysql.h>? Supposed to be a system file, but I don't have it. Is it up for download somewhere?
