Initial Setup Help

[Bori]

I've followed the help forum step by step, and I've come across a problem at the very end.

On the step:
Run WorldDebug.exe from c:\EqEmu\cvs\eqemu\NewSource\Build. Just double click on it from windows explorer.

The code version I have, downloaded 09/29/03, compiles a World.exe but not a WorldDebug.exe. I assume they do the same thing, so I ran the World.exe only to receive the following error:

[Database] block not found in DB.INI. Read README.TXT!


My DB.INI file looks like this: (username and password removed)

[Database]
host=localhost
user=(mySQLusername)
password=(mySQLpassword)
database=eq
compression=off


Any suggestions on what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any support.

make ABSOLUTELY SURE there are no spaces at the end of each thing, else it will cause problems.

what was suggested and worked for me, was to rewrite the entire file by hand.
e.g.

[Database]___ (where _ is a space)

Thanks a ton !

I actually just made that change, noticed it worked, and came here to post that I got it :-)

Super speed on that response though, and thanks !
