ok i've read around here a bit, check wiki a little trying to find information on this. so now i lay it down for people to look at, laugh and reply. i am trying to set up a server, i've had bad luck once before with not getting mobs to spawn but thats in the past, i've been following i belive it is tech's new guide to setting up a server.

i have to say it has been rather easy however i am stuck at this one spot.

the server screen is blank and i'm not sure why.

i've got these following for my setup config files i'm using mini login to connect.

minilogin config file:
--------------------

### --- 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.

# READ README.TXT

[LoginServer]
loginserver=192.168.1.100
loginport=5999
worldname=test land
worldaddress=192.168.1.100
locked=false
account=mike
password=password

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=
Unavailzone=

[ChatChannelServer]

[LoginConfig]

eqemu config file:
--------------------

<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>tland</shortname>
<longname>testland</longname>






<loginserver>
<host>192.168.1.100</host>
<port>5999</port>
<account>mike</account>
<password>password</password>
</loginserver>


<key>some long random string</key>


<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>


<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>root</username>
<password>password</password>
<db>peq</db>
</database>
</server>

and finally since i'm going to playing

eqhost file:
------------

[LoginServer]
Host=192.168.1.100:5999

if you have any ideas go ahead and toss them at me i'll give em a try and see what happens.

Are you hosting the server on the same computer you're playing on?

I believe you need to uncomment those lines.

turlisk

yes i am hosting the server on the same pc i am playing on.

and i did uncomment lines, still no effect.

Then change all of your IP addresses to 127.0.0.1 instead. And make sure you change the ip in your eqhosts.txt file as well. And double check the variables tables in MySQL and make sure it's set to minilogin instead of public if it is. :)

Edit: touche vales :)

I'm assuming you're trying to use minilogin so you should be able to follow this to the letter. Just replace his ip with yours.

http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=MiniLoginConfig

Also, make sure you've made the change the logintype field in the variables table to MInilogin

it wouldn't let me change the variables so i just nuked the DB and starting over from there.

turlisk

i replaced the DB and added the variables and still can get in, no server...

Well that actually all looks right. You didn't happen to overwrite opcodes.conf from the 7.0 install with the opcodes.conf from minilogin did you? Because I believe you shouldn't have.

try changing your server name in the config files to the same servername that was used in the wikipedia example also.

at this point all I can think of is turn your firewall and see if it's blocking some port.

yeah i turned off all my firewalls and stuff still a no go. i got a message out to techguy and see if he has any advice for me. i've played with all the ip's changed server name several times and still not working, not sure what to do next.

PM me all your config files and output on login server and world server. Or I guess post here, just trying to shorten the length of this thread some ;)

Actually, by looking at your log files, it looks like there's no zone entry name in your zone launcher. Well there is, but it's set at NONE.

In MySQL, look under the launcher table. There should be two entries - dynamic and name. Under name, set it to zone. And under dynamic, set it to 6. That's the default values from the PEQ CVS.

Did you remember to change the ip in eqhosts.txt to 127.0.0.1?

*edit* misunderstood issue...

For the post above; just trying to avoid confusion... I dont think that would effect him seeing a server on the server select screen?

maby just to compare... heres a working file, setup for LAN - didnt ever change the chat host channels... they wont effect anything tho
