about LS and World.exe

[Lokon]

When I click world.exe ( everything is installed)

I get:

Loginserver.ini read
Suing databse 'eq' at localhost
Loading items...done.
Loading guild ranks...done.
World Server Listening on: port 9000
(nothing more...)


when my Loginserver.ini reads:

[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqlogin.eqemu.org
worldname=Your Server Name Here
locked=false
account=
password=
worldaddress=YourIPhere
loginport=5999

then when i open Boot5zones

world.exe continues onto:

"Unable to get the host name. Error 11004" over and over

then"New zoneserver #1 MYIPADRESSHERE

Can anyone help me? or tell me how to fix my problem?
Thanks,
Lokon

[Lokon]

The EQEmu forum is not for support.




[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqlogin.eqemu.org
worldname=Your Server Name Here
locked=false
account=
password=
worldaddress=YourIPhere
loginport=5999



This helps none when you tell me the default loginserver.ini and add "i did everything right" (basicly). Try pasting your real loginserver.ini (anyone can see your IP by checking the who's online list so dont worry about it lol). also paste your boot5zones.bat file along with what OS you're on.

[Lokon]

ok copy and pasted.


[Database]
host=localhost
user=****
password=****
database=eq


[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqlogin.eqemu.org
worldname=Rennin Fo
locked=false
account=
password=
worldaddress=24.243.129.140
loginport=5999

I then run world.exe and get this:

Loginserver.ini read.
Using database 'eq' at localhost
Loading items...done.
Loading guild ranks...done.
World server listening on: port 9000

(That is before running the Boot5zones, i do not get a "Connected to LoginServer: eqlogin.eqemu.org:5999" underneath everything else.)

Then Running Boot5zones, world.exe changes to

Loginserver.ini read.
Using database 'eq' at localhost
Loading items...done.
Loading guild ranks...done.
World server listening on: port 9000
Unable to get the host name. Error: 11004unable to get the hostname. Error:11004Unable to get the hostname. Error: 11004New TCP connection: 24.245.129.140:1458

New TCP connection: 24.243.129.140:1459

Zoneserver SetConnectInfo: 24.243.129.140:1459: 24.243.129.140:7998
( so on all the way to #5 )

Boot5zones(all)
say this:

Using database 'eq' at localhost
Loading items & NPCs...done.
Spells loaded from 'spdat.eff'.
Loading guild ranks...done.
Loading faction data...done.
connected to worldserver: 24.243.129.140:9000
Entering sleep mode

Then when I run EQW it goes to Server Login and I type in my Acct name and Pword and I get a Error 1001 message.

Please Shawn if you could help me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you,

Lokon,

if anyone else has a solution in hand please tell me.

Maby a loginserver problem? re-check the IP on worldaddress and boot5zones.bat. you didnt list your OS or the actual boot5zones.bat file (but i had to edit out your mysql login and password lol)

if you would have listed your OS i would have told you how to get your real "IP Address".

[Shawn319]

lol mind reader.

goto Start-> Run-> CMD

then type ipconfig in the dos window. paste what it says for "IP Address"

[Lokon]

that is the exact numbers that i pasted and that are in my files.

24.243.129.140

hell ive memorized it.

[Shawn319]

Okay my coder friends (other devs hehe) seem to think its a common internet connection problem. try restarting your computer and reconnecting to the internet (if it doesnt when u first boot up). then try everything again.

[Lokon]

seems this is a login server problem, any ideas on how to fix it? I really want to get this thing working,

the worse part is it was Fing working just fine yesterday and today and last night it was just Fed up

any ideas?

[Lokon]

Cable Modem, always connected, so then what -_-

[Shawn319]

so THEN (it doesnt look like you restarted your computer in 3 seconds lol).. so try restarting.

[Lyenu X`Arie]

try making boot5zones.bat say this...


@echo off
start zoneNT . 24.243.129.140 7995 127.0.0.1
start zoneNT . 24.243.129.140 7996 127.0.0.1
start zoneNT . 24.243.129.140 7997 127.0.0.1
start zoneNT . 24.243.129.140 7998 127.0.0.1
start zoneNT . 24.243.129.140 7999 127.0.0.1
exit
cls

[Lokon]

[Lokon]

[Lokon]

its just that last line when i run world.exe it wont fooking come up,

so i guess im not attaching to the server.

[Shawn319]

it has to be your ISP and/or internet connection. you ARE getting a ton of packetloss right now. maby its a friday night kinda thing lol. try tomorrow morning :(
