Logged in: FirstLogin LS#59302: kastingxx
Error in GetCharSelectInfo query 'SELECT name,profile,zonename FROM character_ W

any way to fix this?

I googled for that error and read a few threads. You could try a repair of the character_ table, e.g.:

Code:

C:\>mysql -u root 57dr1

Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.

Your MySQL connection id is 5 to server version: 4.0.12-nt



Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
