Ok heres my problem, any help would be greatly appreciated...

Followed all the readme's have my sql all loaded up ect.
I am running on WinXP

Heres readouts from the dos windows while starting up each server

Got up to the character select screen, created a character and it didnt show so i clicked create character and backed out and the character i origionally created was listed.
Next i go to Enter world.

I get the error zone is not avalible. I noticed a few other posts similar, it shows my server as Locked even though Locked is false in the ini. The zone files seem to no be recognized or something.

Here is what the readout on the world server is when trying to enter the world

525536 New client from ip: 127.0.0.1 port: 2905

Guild Send Request...

if there is any more info you need let me know.

hmm I am no expert but the zone thing shouldn't end with done...
if I remember right, its should say something like "entering sleep mode"
you got the spell file in there and all that?

Yes have everything set up exactly as written.

Going to try again with todays release

You either put an empty file named spells_en.txt in your emu directory or you didnt put the spells file there at all.

Tried again with the new version, doublechecked to make sure the spells_en.txt was there.

having this on the zone server dos box

Using database 'eq' at localhost
EQEMu 0.4.1 Spekkio

EMuShareMem.dll loaded.
...done.
done.
If this is the last message you see, you forgot to move spells_en.txt from your
EQ dir to this dir.
Spells loaded.
Loading guild ranks...done.
Loading faction data...done.
Unable to get the host name. Error: 11001InitWorldServer failed

I can get to the server select, server still reads locked, decided to bring my machine on to the DMZ port of my router to make sure it wasnt that , but still occured, got a 1017 error saying i need to rerun the patch, thought i would post this while trying various things from the forum.


edit: also did the add user thing with

world adduser eqemu eqemu 200

:edit

on a side note, just wanted to let all you dev's and other contributors know this is great work you are doing and is much appreciated.. :)

ok this time i realize i made the mistake of re-adding my ip on the new zone batch file, but i wont edit out my stupidity in case someone has the same problem.

still having the re-run patch error with the EQclient
will keep searching the forums

so far tried the boot5zone.bat with the follow for the IP address

localhost

127.0.0.1

and my internal ip which happens 192.168.0.2


also changed the miniloginaccounts.ini


localhost eqemu eqemu
192.168.0.2 eqemu eqemu
127.0.0.1 eqemu eqemu

still getting the 1017 asking me to re-run the patch though
will continue reading through posts, if anyone has a solution let me know thanks

ok switched the boot5zone.bat ip back to localhost

and opened mysql and used the command

insert into account set name='account', password='password', status='200', lsaccount_id='1'

and it works.

thanks everyone that posted

works now
hopefully this post will help someone down the road
