Their is a bug in the code that couses this, search forums for "start_zones" and thier is a nice fix. Im currently working on a "start_zones" table in the format from the fix, and should have it ready for TCS's next database release

k went to the forum where it says how to fix, i replace the code in
database.cpp where it says to and i just get a bunch of errors...

Error executing cl.exe.

Zone.exe - 23 error(s), 0 warning(s)

here is part of my database.cpp where errors occur...

if (RunQuery(query, MakeAnyLenString(&query, "SELECT x,y,z,zone_id,bind_id FROM start_zones WHERE player_choice=%i and player_class=%i and player_deity=%i and player_race=%i", in_cc->start_zone, in_cc->class_, in_cc->deity, in_cc->race), errbuf, &result)) {
safe_delete_array(query);

if (mysql_num_rows(result) != 0) {
row = mysql_fetch_row(result);
in_pp->y = atoi(row[0]);
in_pp->x = atoi(row[1]);
in_pp->z = atoi(row[2]);
in_pp->zone_id = atoi(row[3]);
in_pp->bind_zone_id = atoi(row[4]);
mysql_free_result(result);
return true;
}
}
else {
LogFile->write(EQEMuLog::Error, "Database: could not find start_zones entry in database. Using Defaults..");
}
mysql_free_result(result);
}
else {
LogFile->write(EQEMuLog::Error, "Database: could not find start_zones table in database. Using Defaults..");
safe_delete_array(query);
}
in_pp->x = 0; in_pp->y = 0; in_pp->z = 0;
switch(in_cc->start_zone)
{

any help here would be awsome.

thanks

Without the whole source file and line numbers, it is hard to say, but:

if (mysql_num_rows(result) != 0) {
row = mysql_fetch_row(result);
in_pp->y = atoi(row[0]);
in_pp->x = atoi(row[1]);
in_pp->z = atoi(row[2]);
in_pp->zone_id = atoi(row[3]);
in_pp->bind_zone_id = atoi(row[4]);
mysql_free_result(result);
return true;
}

You may have an extraneous end brace there. Try deleting that.

[arkaria]

an extraneous end brace would result in a compile error I would think.

Yup, those syntax errors he lists are compile errors.

[arkaria]

Oh lol I was reading up to high. Didn't look close enough to the subsiquent posts. My bad

No worries Arkaria, I thought that is what happened ... if you ever see a post by me that say 'n/t', it happened to me too :)

checked, didnt see any brace there.. want me to send the whole database.cpp code?

[ndnet]

The extra brace was quoted from the source which you originally quoted. Unless you've already deleted it, or you somehow added it incorrectly when quoting the source, the brace should still be there ^.^

[Cripp]

ah im a moron, i got it i thought he meant delete the two forward slashes. LOL stupid me.
thanks it worked now :):):) 8) thanks alot
