boot before char sel screen
 

k i installed eq n expansions up to pop, got eqemu 0.4.1, mysql 3.23, and the fix from irc. i followed the readme for the minilogin local server, and first i got the 1017 but fixed it by command and setting status to 200

now im getting booted to the desktop after the loading screen right before the character selection screen pops up...

from command window for minilogin.exe

did i miss something? i have cable and share the connection wit another comp, but i am the host for the connection. i have xp and i disabled the firewall. also im trying to run both client and server from my comp

i tried to use my comp's ip instead of localhost or 127.0.0.1 and it doesn't work. i've tried both eqw and eqgame.exe patchme to connect.

Try fully patching EQ and then install the fix. If that doesn't work, resource your database.

i just installed eq yesterday and did the thorough file check so i should have the up to date patch. will try again though. what do you mean by 'resource your database'?

If you edited the database at all the DB editor may have screwed it up. Go to the mysql\bin folder in the command prompt, and type mysql.exe -f [Database Name] < [Database File]. "Database Name" is whatever you chose to call your database (i.e. EQ), and "Database File" is the name of the .sql files you got when you dowlnoaded the emu and any addons. Repeat this for each additional .sql file you have. It worked for me when I had the same problem.
