eqemuloginserver - after a few days

[provocating]

I notice that after a few days the login server starts saying the username does not exist in the table, but after restarting it works fine. This has happened three times lately after running fine for a few days. It does not have a log file, but I can see it pop up on the screen that it runs the query and says the login name does not exist, but it does. I am using Debian and Wine to run it.

Wow, no one know this one ? It can't just be my machine, or can it ?

While I cannot speak for the other linux servers out there, I will ask the question of why aren't you compiling the code to run natively instead of using wine?

If you use the linux server guides in the wiki, you should be able to successfully compile it. One thing I noticed though when preparing my server (runs CentOS 5.5) was that I had to use all of the linux guides and pick out parts from them to peice it all together. You might have it easier though since your distro was Debian and two of the guides are just for that distro.

Because I never got this resolved.

GCC is picky. They don't like type casting with multiple-word types. Try changing line 129:

unsigned int mode = *((unsigned int*)data);

to

(unsigned int) mode = *((unsigned int*)data);

Yeah I had a prior thread and never got an email notification someone had replied, which they did. Going to try this again this morning.

Actually that lined seemed to be okay, changing it made no difference. The one right below it was the problem.

changing this fixed it.
if(mode == (unsigned int)LoginMode::lm_from_world)


To ....

if(mode == (unsigned int) lm_from_world)
