Creating a private EQemu server

i am not sure about the mysql how do i check? lol thanks for the help again.

its the username and password you used in the command prompt ie mysql -username -ppassword

[deez2255]

i will look into the sql thing. as for the bat i am still having problems switching it over. when i make a new text document and name it start.bat it doesnt give me any visible open to switch it over. it just automatically goes into text format

[Nightrider84]

you gotta go into the text document go to file click save as and there is a bar at the bottom you can change to all files. and name the save start.bat

[deez2255]

thanks for the prompt reply. okay i got the save.bat file saved as a bat. now you said i needed to change the address. and do i need to mess with the sql thing like you said? or is that optional

[deez2255]

You do need the user id and password for the DB in the config and it has to be correct. Otherwise it will all error out.

[deez2255]

Where do i find it at? the user id and password

[Scorpious2k]

Do you meam where do you put it in the config?

[deez2255]

yes thats what i mean i think

It's the same account and password you asked about last week. Remember mysql -uusername -ppassword? The username is generally root for a local connection.

Open the config file (eqemu_config.xml) with an editor (notepad works fine) Go down to where you see

       <database>
                <host>localhost</host>
                <port>3306</port>
                <username>eq</username>
                <password>eq</password>
                <db>eq</db>
        </database>

change the eq between <username> and </username> to the user name you used in mysql, change the eq between <password> and </password> to the password you used. If the DB name isn't eq change the eq between <db> and </db> to the db name you used, otherwise leave it alone.

Save the config file and it should work.
