Server Errors

[IAmally]

1st I follow the following instructions to the T http://forums.eqemu.net/viewtopic.php?t=8493

and here's what I'm getting...

Loading world.exe....

Using database 'eq' at localhost

Liberating a country that despises us...
TCP listening on: port 9000
World server listening on: port 9000

Loading boot5zones.bat everythign seems to go fine until the end I get this...

WorldServer connect: Connecting to the server failed: TCPConnection::Connect():
Couldnt resolve hostname. Error: 11001
[Error] worldserver.Connect() FAILED!
[Status] Entering sleep mode

Now I read alot about this error here...

this is what I tried...


1st changeing all the ip's to both localhost and 127.0.0.1

currently I have my loginserver configured as such....

### --- 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.

boot5zones looks as follows...

REM:--------------Start-----------------------
@echo off

if NOT exist spells_en.txt goto NOSPELL

start zone . 24.50.86.61 7995 localhost
start zone . 24.50.86.61 7996 localhost
start zone . 24.50.86.61 7997 localhost
start zone . 24.50.86.61 7998 localhost
start zone . 24.50.86.61 7999 localhost
start zone . 24.50.86.61 8000 localhost

no matter what I changed my ip to I'd get the same errors loading the boot5zones...

now world.exe seems to log the boot5zones.bat

this would leave me to believe that these 2 lines are probably the problem....

[LoginServer] block not found in 'LoginServer.ini'.

and

Loading EQ time of day..."./eqtime.cfg" is NOT a vaild EQTime file. File version
is 0; EQTime version is 1000 - failed.
Deleted 0 stale player corpses from database.
Deleted -1 stale player backups from database.
Abort/retry/cancel?
TCP listening on: port 9000

not really sure what I'm missing....

oh just a thought as far as my router I just enabled DMZ hosting just to get around putting in all the ports... figured might as well bypass nat all together....

any help would rule...

POSSIBLE CAUSE: [LoginServer] block not found in 'LoginServer.ini'.
loginserver.ini is a bit messed up
POSSIBLE SOLUTION:
### --- 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.

tried pasting the text you had wrote into the ini file.... sadly it's still the same

I start world.exe and....

now when I run Boot5Zones.bat everything works fine until the end when something happens with resolving the host....

WorldServer connect: Connecting to the server failed: TCPConnection::Connect():
Couldnt resolve hostname. Error: 11001
[Error] worldserver.Connect() FAILED!


I don't get it gggrr

[IAmally]

well making some progress....
removed my router (I'll deal with that later) since dmz hosting didn't appear to be doing the job and I got the server to connect I think but it's not showing up when I got to log in....

I'm still getting this when i run world.exe

Using database 'eq' at localhost

You may already be a winner... of the darwin award.
TCP listening on: port 9000
World server listening on: port 9000


BUT... without the router Boot5Zones.bat connects! but I'm not sure if entering sleep mode is what I want

here is the last few lines I see...

[Status] Loading what ever is left
[Status] Entering sleep mode
Connected to worldserver: 24.50.86.41:9000


so yay looks like it connected

but I don't see the server when I log in.... humm

Ok, here is what you want to do. Plug your router back in, and boot up the DOS prompt. Type ipconfig to figure out your internal IP, and then put that in boot5zones.bat. If you're on win xp (forgot if you mentioned it or not) turn off the firewall, and then find the ip of your router, go there and forward port 9000 and all the zone ports that you are running in boot5zones.bat to your INTERNAL IP. Hope this helps.
