The most likely problem is that you don't have your config file, eqemu_config.xml in the same directory as world.exe, zone.exe etc.

Make sure it isn't called eqemu_config.xml.txt or something like that.

Enable the display of file extensions in Windows Explorer (it's under the Organise/Folder and Search Options/View in Vista ... I don't remember off hand how to get to it in XP), or alternatively, launch a command prompt, CD to wherever your world.exe/zone.exe are and do:


C:\eqemu>dir eqemu_config*
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is DA34-F279

Directory of C:\eqemu

06/06/2009 14:25 901 eqemu_config.xml


If your eqemu_config.xml is named correctly, and is located in the same directory as your world and zone executables, then post your eqemu_config.xml, as there may be a problem with it's contents.

You are missing a < symbol where i have indicated in red below:


<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>oick</shortname>
<longname>oicks eq beta</longname>

<!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. -->
<!--<address>192.168.2.3</address>-->
<!--<localaddress>127.0.0.1</localaddress>-->

<!-- Loginserver information. -->
<loginserver>
<host>eqemulator.net</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account></account>
<password></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>192.168.2.3</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>root</username>
<password>***</password>
<db>peq</db>
</database>
</server>


PS: Your password has been replaced with asterisks in my revised version. You will need to re-add it between <password>***</password> in the <database> section, in place of the asterisks.
