Crashing

[Rengoku]

For starters I followed the guide word for word. Everything works great, server loads, I'm able to login, and even create a character. The problem comes as soon as character completion and the game attempts to zone. I get a Windows error pop-up and the games locks-up. When I restart everything, I need to remake my character (delete the one in the DB) and it will do the same thing again

the Windows Event Viewer error:

Faulting application world.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module world.exe, version 0.0.0.0, fault address 0x000721d4.

What database are you using, and did you apply SQL updates per the changelog.txt?

[Rengoku]

I found out that my DB was corrupt! After I rebuilt it

[John Adams]

For mysql 5, yes.

Great... thats what I'm using.

Is there a fix or at least on in the works to fix this problem?

Look around for an answer, more people use MySql 5 and don't have these problems.
Do a search in this forum for the problem you have.

Use build 866 or higher, the changelog states:

FatherNitwit: Maybe fixed issue with losing items when zoning in mysql 5.

If it still doesn't work, then back down to MySQL 4.0, I have found through tests that it is the best version performance wise for EQEmu.
