Local Login Server shows no Servers

Hi everyone :)

I set up a Server, following this Guide on the wiki:
http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?Complet...Guide&frm=Main

I want to use a private login server, mainly because i will not always have an internet connection. I did this following this guide, that was linked in the server setup guide:
http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?Windows...Guide&frm=Main

Setting up the server seemed to have worked fine. Everything started up and seems to work. The one thing i changed from the guide, is that i set up the server in a different folder since i generally do not install stuff on my c: drive.
Using the Titanium Client, i can log in, but after that i do not see any servers listed. I searched the Forum and google and tried some things, which did not help.

eqemu_config.xml

Code:

I do not see any obvious errors in any logfiles.

Could it be an issue that i am running a german version of Windows 7?

Most likely i have overlooked something trivial, any help is apreciated :)

There's a few things that will need to be changed..but, first...

When you say private login server -
-- are you wanting a same computer access (client/server) or a LAN access one?
-- will this server still connect to the public login server at times?

There's a lot of ways to configure a setup and we need to know exactly what you're wanting.

EDIT: Let's get through the config setups before moving on to the German windows version - unless someone has
a definite answer.

I've got a private login server going myself. My files are slightly different.

For specificity, I don't specify 127.0.0.1 anywhere in my files. I use the actual IP address of my login/world server (192.168.1.105 in my case).

login.ini:

[database] - the host is 192.168.1.105 instead of 'localhost'
[options] - the localnetwork is also 192.168.1.105

eqemu_config.xml:

address - 192.168.1.105
localaddress - 192.168.1.105
loginserver/host - 192.168.1.105
loginserver/account - EQEmu login account name you created in the account database tables, not your mysql root account
loginserver/password - EQEmu login account you created in the account database tables, not your mysql root password
tcip ip - 192.168.1.105
chatserver/host - 192.168.1.105
mailserver/host - 192.168.1.105
database/host - 192.168.1.105
qsdatabase/host - 192.168.1.105

It works for me with the actual full IP address of the server specified everywhere, instead of localhost or 127.0.0.1.

Ok, i got it working now :)
I did not find what credentials you have to put into the loginserver area in the .xml, so that info helpded a lot.
Also, most likely more important, i missed complely that you had to exit that update utiliy in world exe to get it to actually start ;)

Well.. i can log in, i can look around, but i cannot move at all.
Creating a Vah Shir staring in Shar Val, i fall trough the world... Did i break something by executing all update commands from world exe?
Most likely i will start over from scratch anyway,to get better accustomed with the server software

Not being able to move, and falling through the world, generally indicates that you don't have the proper .map files in the proper location in your Emu folder schema. Except in the odd case of zone files mismatching for Nektulos, Freeport, etc. between Titanium and later clients.

I ran into that with the map file downloads, too. When I saw that world.exe was considering ALL of the pre-installed map files "out of date" and was re-downloading them individually, I cancelled the download process. Reloading world.exe afterwards allowed the server to come up, since the database portion had been properly marked as being up to date.

The red icon on the Maps folder is the Git software indicating that files were added from some other location besides Git, so it can't vouch for them. Would indeed be safest to do a git pull on them to be sure everything's kosher.

Ok, i got it working now. I must have screwed up something when trying to repair my first installation.
I started over completely, including pulling new source, wiped the database, and loaded the maps from the FTP this time. After a Database Updates from world.exe, it seems to run fine so far. So, no issues here with a german windows :)
