sort of the same problem...
 

Yea , ive had some problem with this too. Very sorry for asking this but "Anyone know what I did wrong , The compiler did finish but it had a few errors and warnings , I used C++ visual 6.0 and the file i had to compile before the world worked perfectly , so any advice?"

Did you download zlib and put it in your lib and include path?

Doesnt look like it...

Just wanted to say ith a big thanks to Conan, my server is up and running nicely. We found that one of the problems was that for some reason world.exe was requiring dumpeditems.sql to be databased and ready before it will work right. I'm sure Conan can give a more detailed explaination if you ask him really nicely :)

Thanks again man, couldn't have done it without you.
