For me the most strange is i can install the linux server script with the same connexion (vdsl2 140m from dslam), but still don't have internet connexion with windows script.
I've same error with my connexion or via my vpn (illiad dedibox and linux with full accept rules FW).

I don't know yet what i've to test, because i set a linux server and it's ok for now.

As I mentioned in another thread, I am having some problems with the server.

Maybe it is related to a difference I had installing it: when I went to change the xml config file, there was no section for the part labelled "Uncomment the address tag and put the local LAN IP"

The loginserver2 part I changed, but there was no part with the "DO NOT EDIT ANY LINES BETWEEN HERE AND THE DATABASE SECTION"

Could that be causing my login issues, and if possible, how would I correct it?

Thanks.

Ahhhh.

I think this is a multilingual thing.

When you open up command prompt and you type:

ping 8.8.8.8

What do you get back?

The code is looking for:

Thank you Akka ! that make sens now you tell me, the return word are not the same in french.

As I suspected.

Delete eqemu_server.pl, run the installer and try again.

I removed the whole ping part in script and now the DL is ok ;)

I'll try that new version tomorrow, thank your for you fast reply Akka.

windows stuck at Connecting to MySQL
 

Im having a bit of an issue getting my server to work.
The installer installed fine, but upon running t_start_server.bat

I get the screens and all windows in orange text are stuck at Connecting to MySQL
then they close and restart..

perl.exe screens displaying up/down zones are constantly changing and ucs and queryserver and world report "UP" and "DOWN"

This is on my win10 machine.


any ideas?

Make sure that you have valid MySQL credentials in the config. I'm guessing you had a database engine already installed.

Make sure shared_memory runs successfully on its own, t_start_server.bat should also run that regardless.

run by itself, shared_memory.exe loads a dos windows, no text is displayed then shuts down and also occurs with the t_start_server.bat file. right after that the other windows pop up and stop at the Connecting to MySQL section.

I may go back to plain vanilla win10, and go from there.

also, I can enter the db ok with heidisql no problem

George

What's shared_memory.exe say when run from a cmd prompt?

running it it starts a dos window, and no text appears, takes about 20 seconds then shuts down. I can see process terminate from windows task list..

Yeah something going on with shared_memory.exe - but not sure the cause

George

I had the same thing the other day when I put together a test server on my win 7 box,
not using the installer, just a fresh compile, etc.
Before I run the server the first time, I ran shared_memory and it did what yours did.
But I said to hek with it and started the server up, ran the shared with server running
and it worked ok. Been working normally since then.

Well finally caught a break
With heidisql, went into mysql/user table and overwrote the word 'root' by retyping in the word root (redundant I know) -- then under tools/flushed/hosts, and restarted the t_start_server.bat and it worked just like that. Went into my server, created a character, and all is well. What' ya know!

ok, so now off to work on the tools!

Install Issues
 

Running Win7 32-bit Enterprise, latest updates.

Downloaded file from http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?Akkas_P...ctions-windows and noticed that the files inside the zip do not match those in the screenshot, specifically MariaDB is missing, perhaps others.

EDIT :

Nevermind I should have read more carefully. I dual boot 32/64 bit and did not realize I was in a non-compatible OS. My bad.

I've looked at the Step-by step Server setup guide, which does support Win7 32-bit. Is there any chance of getting this guide updated? Any chance of creating a Server Installer for 32-bit OS's? :)
