login server issues
Okay, I've just finished my third server setup this week in attempt of success (windows, then linux, then fresh windows).
This last time I installed a fresh copy of windows xp 32bit sp2 home. I compiled revision 1583server code and sourced peqdb_rev1549. I followed http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=Windows religiously. I couldn't find EQEmuLoginServer.exe after I compiled, so I pulled the one from the google SVN and made my own eqemulogin.ini, since this version of EQEmuLoginServer.exe doesn't seem to point at the current source's "login.ini" Code:
Port=5998 Code:
<?xml version="1.0"> "Connecting to login server: weezilla.dyndns.org:5998" "Setting World to MiniLogin Server type" "Connected to login server: weezilla.dyndns.org:5998" Even though I'm running EQEmuLoginServer.exe and not minilogin.exe The Login server seems to be running fine, but I do see this: "Unhandled server packet 0x1000" after I run world.exe (but it seems to run after that). I set my eqhost.txt to point directly to my server, and I'm able to login with ANY username/password combination. The server list is empty and it displays 0 of 0 expansions. I tried minilogin, but every configuration I try, I just get "A connection to the server could not be reached." I know I have to be really close >< I don't know what it is stopping me. I've got almost 30 hours in this over the weekend and was hoping to get it working before classes start again tomorrow =( Any help would be EXTREMELY appreciated. (Btw, my aim is to have this on the public login at eqemulator.net). |
I can't find how to edit so:
I'm REALLY close. I set my <loginserver> for world to eqemulator.net and I can log in to my server, but I can't seem to zone. Do I need to be using minilogin or eqemuserverlogin? EDIT: can anyone tell me how all the new login stuff works? Do I need to point the world.exe conif to eqemulator.net, or to my own eqemuloginserver.exe? How dose eqemulator.net communicate with my server? Thanks =( |
Unless you intend to play without an internet connection, it is probably best (and easiest) to just make your server a public server that uses the eqemulator.net Login Server.
Minilogin pretty much sucks for most people. The EQEmuLoginServer is really nice, but it has been changed a bit recently and none of the guides for it are fully updated for the changes yet. Maybe this guide can help you some, but again, it isn't fully updated: http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=ValesEQ If you can log all of the way into your server, then you are doing pretty good. Being unable to zone may mean you need to increase the dynamics setting in the launcher table of your DB to 5 or greater. If you somehow have that set to 1, it wouldn't let you zone. Or, you may have some issue with ports or port ranges for your zones in the config and/or in your router config. |
Thanks for your reply. I was really confused about the login situation. Somewhere along the way I started assuming that minilogin and eqemuloginserver could point to eqemulator.net (that eqemulator.net wasn't a login server).
I pointed all of my config to eqemulator.net and I think things are working now (after making sure my high version source worked with peqdb 1535). I have more testing to do, but I think things are working? |
