Error 1017 PLS HELP

[Wrathegar]

Ok, I have been reading a multitude of posts on this error and have yet to find a fix to my problem. I am running Win XP and am attempting to run a local server. I am also attempting to run the server and log onto it on the same computer. I have tried logging onto my server with my user name: Wrathegar and with the user name and pw both being eqemu. I get the same result from both when I click on my server, error 1017. Here is my file info:

LoginServer.ini
### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to.
### --- Leave the account and password field BLANK.

### --- Public Login is un-supported as is LAN playing. We reccomend using the EQEmu.net Loginserver ALWAYS.

### --- NOTE: Starting 6-1-2002, you can no longer use the word "Server" in worldname.
### --- NOTE2: the word "Server" is added to each server automaticly.

Pls tell me what I am doing wrong and how I can fix this error so that I can play. Also I need to know if I can run and play on my server with the same computer. P.S. I have also tried changing 127.0.0.1 to localhost with no effect. :confused:

[Wrathegar]

Oh, one more thing I have disabled my XP internet firewall and am using Zone Alarms, which I also tried turning off with no effect.

I have the same problem. I am logging in with the username and password of eqemu. I get to the loging screen but when I try to Play I get a 1017. I tried to give admin to that account like the help says to.

C:\EQEmu>world flag eqemu 200
Using database 'eq' at localhost
EQEMu 0.3.12 - Wiederbelebung
Account being GM Flagged:eqemu, Level: 200
Account: eqemu does not exist, therefore it cannot be flagged
database.SetGMFlag failed.

In mysql:

Sure enough when I run a "select * from account;" the tables are empty. I can do a "describe account;" and see all the fields for the table but I am unsure as to what the values should be. I thought the eqemu user would be listed somewhere in the db. Maybe I just assume too much. :)

Any help would be appreciated

Try, uh, the adduser, in a command line with a DOS window, then login.

world adduser eqemu eqemu 200

Then, try the 'world flag eqemu 200'. The account will already be set as a Server Op with the adduser command, but if you don't get an error when you do it, it may just work.

It may not solve your problems, so don't get mad at me if it don't. :)

Thanks for the reply. I went and downloaded the EQemu Admin tool and added my user through that tool. I didn't know about the world adduser. hum, should have guessed a world /? would have helped me. All I have to do now is remove the mulitple spawns in the new patch and I'll be good. Thanks for the help.
