Just another 'incorect version'

[donfi]

I have read the readme and followed it in setting up my server.
I think I should be getting this

LoginServer.ini read.
Using database 'eq' at localhost
Loading items...done.
Loading guild ranks...done.
World server listening on: YourIP:9000
Connected to LoginServer: eqlogin.eqemu.org:5999


I am getting this

LoginServer.ini read.
Using database 'eq' at localhost
Loading items...done.
Loading guild ranks...done.
World server listening on: Port 9000
Connected to LoginServer: eqlogin.eqemu.org:5999
Login server responded with FatalError. Disabling reconnect
Error message: 'Incorrect version'

These are my config files

[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqlogin1.eqemu.org
loginserver2=eqlogin2.eqemu.org
loginport=5999
loginport2=5999
worldname=jd's place
locked=false
account=
password=
worldaddress=24.127.8.45

[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Standalone
ServerPort=5999

I eliminated the extra three lines in an attempt to cure the problem. I did however make a backup copy so they can be restored.

I have read something about a patch but can not find it in the Sourceforge.

While not the problem, put the extra lines back in loginserver.ini

Are you sure your world.exe and zone.exe are from the 3.4 eqemu release? It is the loginserver complaining your trying to connect with the wrong world.exe version.

thanks I was using 3.3.1. I down loaded it from eqemu and that is the only one they had. It did not occur to me that the link on eqemu's sight would not be the newest.

you're missing some lines at the end of loginserver.ini. re-extract the 0.3.4 loginserver.ini and set it up again (new loginserver.ini has all the required lines).

I have put these lines back in.

UplinkAddress=
UplinkPort=
UplinkAccount=
UplinkPassword=


Once again thanks
:D

baaaad thing :)

I am a programer and technition. When something does not work I begin troubleshooting. Sometimes eliminating blank lines like

anything=

does make things work because the code was removed but no changes made in the config file. That can screw up the read routines by leaving unexpected things in the buffer. It is just one part of my routine.

When messing in territory that is new and I have not experimented for 3 months to a year on, or when using a new version I always make back-up copies of the original files.

If you do it safe ie make backups it is not necc. a bad thing just a learning exp.
