Issues starting server

[sirgoladith]

Ok, so I got it all set up and all. But when I run the batch to launch the server, I get an error in the eqemuloginserve.exe window

EQEmuLoginServer v1.0 ALPHA by The Oustanding Developers at PEQ!

Using Port: 5999
Dumping Inbound packets.
Dumping Outbound packets.
Database Server: localhost
Database Catalog: peqlogindb
Database UserName: root
Database Password:


File 'C:\mysql\\share\charsets\?.conf' not found (Errcode: 22)
Character set '#33' is not a compiled character set and is not specified in the
'C:\mysql\\share\charsets\Index' file
Server (TCP) listener started.
File 'C:\mysql\\share\charsets\?.conf' not found (Errcode: 22)
Character set '#33' is not a compiled character set and is not specified in the
'C:\mysql\\share\charsets\Index' file

But then the world.exe never runs either. That is as far as i have gotten really. been troubleshooting this for the last day or so and I just cannot figure it out for the life of me.

I forgot to add, I am running server rev 1316 w/ bots and PEQ DB 1589 if that makes any kind of difference. At first I was running server rev 1612 /w bots.

I screwed up, only compiled the login server..compiling the rest as we speak...we shall see what it does after that.

Ok, now this is what I am getting...along with the other error from the eqemuloginserver.exe...this is from the eqlaunch.exe [08.31. - 17:38:25] Starting Log: logs/eqemu_debug_2376.log
[08.31. - 17:38:25] [LAUNCHER__INIT] Loading server configuration..

Ok, I got it worked down to, the fact that world for some reason cannot access my sql db. But I think I have it set up correctly. Here is my eqmu_config.xml

You need to have your MySQL password in there so the launcher can access your database.

I deleted the password out of there for the paste.

Instead of localhost, try '127.0.0.1'

I somehow got it to work on my desktop. I was able to get a working server, I tried copying over the ini's and the xml and it didn't help. I really am stuck and at a loss....
