OK, banged my head against this long enough...

Followed the instructions for db setup (including the minilogin stuff) at:

http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka...kka=MySQLSetup

My eqemu_config.xml looks like this (copy/paste, so it's exact):

<?xml version="1.0">

My minilogin LoginServer.ini looks like:

### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to.
### --- Leave the account and password field BLANK.

### --- Public Login is un-supported as is LAN playing. We reccomend using the EQEmu.net Loginserver ALWAYS.

### --- NOTE: Starting 6-1-2002, you can no longer use the word "Server" in worldname.
### --- NOTE2: the word "Server" is added to each server automaticly.

# READ README.TXT

[LoginServer]

Yet every time I try to start world.exe, it just pops up the error:

[Debug] [WORLD__LS_ERR] Could not connect to login server: TCPConnection::Connect(): connect() failed. Error: 10061

If anyone has any ideas, I can be reached on Yahoo messenger as solinear.

Just an FYI. When I connect to the minilogin server from a client, it says "904344 New client from ip: 127.0.0.1 port: 4884"

At least something is working...

[klinzhai]

Went and hunted down Cavedude's installer, seems to be working, only I'm not seeming to be able to login from my EQ client. I'm sure that it's something stupid (more PEBCAK) like I haven't added in the user/password for the client.

Edit: Yep, went into the db and inserted the record with a password (Yay for MysqlCC!!) and everything and *bam*! I got in. Now all I have to do is figure out how to get my server onto the server list

[Kirgothi]

I am having the same problem as you. Where are you stuck at? The "Logging into the server. Please wait..." screen? Or the server selection screen.

Cavedude told me that his installer takes care of adding a default user/passcode for you. I think it's mini/mini, but I am not positive.

I'm at the server screen.

His installer does not install default user/password into the account table (if you go get MysqlCC from the good MySQL folks, you can view the table and there's nothing in it). Just right-click on the account table, select "Open Table > Return all rows" and it will actually return you all the data in the table. If there isn't anything in there, right-click again in the open area where it appears that the data is and select "Insert record". Now you can go through and set all those wonderful settings that you'll need so that you can create new users. As soon as you click on the "name" field, it will autocreate a new master key (the "id" field for the table... never change this, it's only important for the db itself and it autoincrements) for the record.

[Kirgothi]

I am trying to use access to open the table, but I can't seem to find anything to open. What are you using to look at the database?
