database help pls

[aludain]

Hello all i am using the ax_classic database and it seems to be setup correctly but when i run world.exe it errors saying cannot continue without a database connection. My config file is setup with the password and ax_classic under database, and using the mysql query browser i can connect to the database and see aa entries and whatnot. I tried googling/searching and the two things most things said where do the oldpass /newpass thing, which i tried and set all privileges which i also tried. I setup using techs pdf guide on this site. In the guide it also says ax_classic was setup for minilogin and to run . update variables set value="public" where varname="LoginType"; in the mysql query browser when i do that it says unknown column 'login type' in 'where clause'

I can post any info needed if someone can help me get pointed in the right direction.. wasnt sure what all to add here.Thanks in advance for any assistance anyone can provide!!

check your start.bat file..

right click and edit then see that it looks like this:

_______
@echo off
start world.exe
cls
Echo Wait for World to finish loading....Press Enter when done.
pause
start eqlaunch.exe zones
exit
_______

where next to last line says 'zones' and not 'zone'

update variables set value="public" where varname="LoginType"; in the mysql query browser when i do that it says unknown column 'login type' in 'where clause'

The error doesn't match the query.

Make sure you have a variable called 'LoginType' in the variables table. If not, insert one and set the value to 'public'.

Look in your logs and you should see some more specific info.
