Zone.exe crashing with application error

[Borkus]

Zone.exe - Application Error
The instruction at "0x00469faa" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".

All applications (including those in the system tray) were shut down. I have tried using IPs 127.0.0.1 and 102.100.100.10 in Boot5zones.bat with the same results. I've also run a complete virus scan (just in case) using McAfee's latest DAT.

System info:
lan IP address: 102.100.100.10
EQEmu 0.4.2
MiniLogin 010503

PC specs:
Win2k sp2
P-4 2.0GHz
1GB RAM
Geforce 3
160GB HD (raid 0)


Running minilogin.exe:
LoginServer.ini read.
MiniLoginAccounts.ini read.
Server mode: Standalone
Login server listening on port:5999
New TCP connection: 127.0.0.1:1112

At this point, I get an error:

### --- 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.

Oh yeah. That old problem. I do believe I may have had them all. Eventually I gave up. But this particular thing was caused when I tried using the database that came with Eqemu 0.4.2 all by itself. You might want to try sourcing in Telmet's database on top of whatever db.sql you sourced in. Worked for me, even though EQ would crash when connecting to the world server, giving me an error message in minilogin that included the keywords "getstate" and "102", if you want to look up references to it in the forum search. This "getstate" problem might be with my EQ files because I can't even connect to any on-line servers without EQ closing. Hope this info helps.

Sourcing Telmet's database solved the problem and got me running. Thanks for the help!
