Can't Load to zones.

[wodon]

Whenever I try to make a charecter, it usually freezes after i make a name. Either it will attempt to check on my name, or once the name clears, i click enter world and it freezes there...whats going on?

If it's the same thing then I had. Then it's simply a error caused by ZONE taking to much time to load.

Try emptying this table in the databse : merchantlist_temp

mysql -U root
use (databse name);
delete from merchantlist_temp;

Try it again !

not metioning if this is while trying to connect to your personl server or a public server. If it is a public server then try PEQ to see if all goes well abd rule out client issues. If it works then the issue is server side on that server you tryed.

if it is your personsal try what cmdr-franck posted it does speed up the zone bootups.

what am i suppose to delete? Im not understanding what you typed..

[cmdr-franck]

go to command prompt (cmd in EXECUTE)
type " cd \mysql\bin " or where ever you put MySQL (should be on C )
type " mysql -U root " (it case sensitive)
type " use (your database name prolly eq ou eq62) 2
type "delete from merchantlist_temp"

Start your server again .. and try to zone !

That's what fixed my personal server. I'm only wainting for the fixed zoneperl to test the quests (can't wait)

Keep us in touch of progress.

Umm...I dont think hes talking about a server he is running...just his client. This is the 'General Support' not server support =p

he never specified what he was doing there is a response to him for if it was his personal server.Also there is a response on what to do if it was a public server. he never responed to what it was so if people do help they can only guess so far as we are not mind readers.

also a few people will through server support questions in here even though they are not suppose to be here.

Actually, the same happened with me (same issue as wodon's)

I'm running a public server
-No response (sometimes) after name selection.
-Zoning into glookingdeep (No response - restarted server)
-Zone into home town - worked fine. Killed a few rats in oggok.
-Zoning to innothule swamp (No response - restarted server)

So, I will try the "delete from merchantlist_temp" idea
Apart from the huge wait during zoning, game runs flawlessly!
