i log in and have no problems doing so, the server seems fine when starting it on the server computer, so when the server is started i log in and when i choose my server and hit play everquest, the game stays there, frozen for a minute then kicks me back to the login screen, i am using the privatelogin

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


ive tried everything i can think of, and last time i set up a server (about 8 month or more ago) i had no problems, and it was on the same computer, now i redid windows on there so i decided sence i have it JUST for a server now i would reinstall the eqemulator, but everything is new, and my setup took a while to config cause i didnt know what was different or now, anyways, if someone could help i'd be very happy :)

Might want to put what you did for the sake of other people looking for a solution. I always wonder why people always just say "nm, fixed it", lol.

all it was, for me, is that im using the privatelogin, so it kept tryin to create my account from the login database to the ax_classic database, well i had an account on the ax_classic database already, so i deleted that, and tryed it again and it had no problem loading, i found out cause i looked at the world.exe while i was trying to connect with eq, this may not be possiable for people running everquest and their server on the same computer, i dont know, im running a server computer with everquest, and other server software

You also may want to make sure that you're not ovewriting anything in the variables table as well. It's recommended that you make a new database for the PrivateLogin and just point the db.ini file to that database for logging in. :)

It's works perfectly fine when you're hosting and playing on the same PC. The problem was that since you already had an account in the ax_classic database, you couldn't make one because it already existed. Hence making a seperate database for the login server is recommended.
