Same problem as original poster

Having the exact same problem.

if I :
create database eq;
use eq;
source db.sql
then
everything works fine. No mobs, loot, spawns.... obviously. But i can get in and walk around.

if i:
create database eqtcm;
use eqtcm;
source MWnpcmovDB_050_alpha0_3_3.sql
source 050_item_object_update.sql
"optional next line, i've tried it with and without"
source dumpeditems.sql
then
I can get up to the char select screen create a character but when i try to get that character in i immediatly get "That zone is not Available"

The output in World.exe and the Zone.exe handling the character are pretty much identical to what the other poster recieved.

Am i going about this wrong? I've trolled here for a few hours and tried everything i came acrossed.

Any ideas?

please post your .ini's, might be in the IP config or in the Batzone... If your set up right you might also be having a NAT error. There is a wonderful No-name.org trick that shortcuts the NAT error...

exit

The only thing i change is the database name from eq to eqtcm depending on what one i want to try.

did you world adduser eqemu eqemu 200?
I had the same problems and I think that fixed it

Will give that a shot right away......
That zone is not available
:twisted:

If that doesn't work, I forgot how to fix it.
Be sure that when you add that account, it's to the new one that you make "DWMnpc_blah.sql" one

Try downloading the database directly from his website and sourcing the update then add the account and try. I am almost positive that's the problem.

Am doin that sa i type am currently sourcing =)

No Go =/

ERROR: Couldn't load zone lists.
Zone->Init failed

So to recap.

create database eqtest;
use eqtest;
source DWMnpc_blah.sql
source DWMnpc_update_050..blah.sql
exit

edit db.ini
changed the database line to
database=eqtest
go to command prompt to eqemu directory

world adduser eqemu eqemu 200

close command prompt.

click on world
click on boot5zone.bat

open eq and....

after creating newbie 1 ranger
and clicking on enter
That zone is not available =/

Did i miss anything?

Again. if i follow these exact steps but only source the db.sql from eqemu i enter the world fine.

/boggle

Did you grant the proper mysql permisions to the database eqtest for the user tinv@localhost?

ruh roh i think ya got me.. that one went soaring over my skullcap.. let me go search around for exactly what you are talking about

[Error] Database: could not find start_zones table in database. Using Defaults..

Thats what cought my attention, Ma be a bad DB. In the past when i had DB issues i re-downloaded the DB and reinstalled. It is a common error for the SQL file to become currupted when unzipping, i know of many cases of this.

EDIT

that would be the result of the first error i pointed out.

Not sure what guide you've been following. The following guide is out dated but the commands you need to configure mysql are still valid.

http://www.eqemu.net/Guide.htm

ok redownloaded both archives by following post # 2 and 3 from this thread.

and am following http://www.eqemu.net/Guide.htm
to the "T".

Just make sure not to use the eqhost.txt specified in that guide as it is for v4.4 servers. Everything else pretty much should still aplly.
