Might want to post your config files and be a bit more descriptive or something. That was about as descriptive as me telling my doctor that I'm hurting somewhere. ;-)

Vales mind helping me with my problem also, same idea, but when i choose my server, it sits for a little while, then it pushes me back to the login screen

im using the privatelogin, and everything seems to work fine until i try to join my server :(

the following are my config files

eqemu_config.xml

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

<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. -->
<address>localhost</address>-->
<localaddress>localhost</localaddress>-->

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>5999</port>
<account>admin</account>
<password>******* (removed for security)</password>
</loginserver>

<!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world -->
<key>some long random string</key>

<!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service. -->
<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>

<!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. -->
<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>root</username>
<password>******* (removed for security)</password>
<db>ax_classic</db>
</database>
</server>



db.ini

[Database]
host=localhost
user=root
password=******* (removed for security)
database=eqemuls


LoginServer.ini

[LoginConfig]
ServerName=riot
ServerDescription=riot
ServerMode=PrivateLogin
ServerPort=5999
ipaddress=
allowanonservers=0
statsaddress=
statsport=5999


I think thats all of them :/

RIOT... I've never looked at the AX setups...but, just a quick question...the database name in your config file and the db.ini file don't match...does it use 2 DBs?

[Riotgamer2212]

yes, it uses 2 databases, one for the game server, and the other for the login server

Is your eqhost.txt file set to:
[LoginServer]
Host=127.0.0.1:5999 ?

I'd copy back the default xml and start from scratch. For a start, I can see this section missing:
<!-- Sets the ip/port for the tcp connections. Both zones and console (if enabled). Defaults are shown -->

Search the forums for 0x0003 - the opcode you get spammed with when you can't get past server select.
