Error: InflatePacket: inflate() returned -3
 

I know minilogin isn't supported but I'm not sure if this is a minilogin problem
or a problem with the server. I know this has worked for people as I saw the servers
on the EQEMu Loginservers with it.

So i'm just going to post my error, I cut it down to what I think the problem is.
Here its getting unknown opcodes when sending character information, as you can see :]
I'm guessing opcodes have to do with packets, and something isn't reading right. This
isn't a database problems I don't think because i'm using the db.sql that came with the
EQEMu 4.2 zip, with no addons, just that file.

Below is my config, and what the files say when I get the error. Basically I copied these
after I tried to enter with the character I just created, and when I do, it loads up the zone
and then the bootup exits out and I get this error.

I've always used this setup, it works fine with 4.1, only thing different I notice is the
compression=0/1 and the guide GUI Files which I don't think has anything to do with the error :]

So please, ignore this, or post a reply. Would be glad if I could get this to work, i've been wanting
to test the pathing :]


File Configs:

Boot5zones.bat

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Note: I took out 2 of them because with minilogin I don't really need 5 of them since i'm the only one using it.
This might be the problem, but in previous versions it worked fine. I didn't have time to check when I realized that.

CMD While Running Server

World.exe
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Start~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Note: Error: InflatePacket: inflate() returned -3 'unknown compression method'
* I'm guessing this is the error, but I wasn't sure what it meaned. I tried changing
the Compression=0/1 but it still got the same error.

1x Server Bootup
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Start~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Minilogin

If this is a minilogin problem, just tell me, no need to flame. I don't have internet at my house
right now since I just moved so I can't really check the forums but simply post and check back another
day.

Also, if you've read this far you probably are trying to help, if you know how to get it so corpses stay
i'd like to find that out aswell. I heard it was something like corpses=1 in the source. But i'm probably
wrong like usual :]

I got this EXACT same problem, installed 0.4.2 & db addon, and this happens. Used to work perfectly now i keep getting this every time. Wish someone would help.

God dam...it took me about 3 days...but I used to have this problem also.....yea got it working... :D :D ...ok her is the list of changes I made to the database.

ALTER TABLE variables ADD COLUMN ts timestamp NULL;
ALTER TABLE `npc_types` ADD `MR` SMALLINT(5) NOT NULL;
ALTER TABLE `npc_types` ADD `CR` SMALLINT(5) NOT NULL;
ALTER TABLE `npc_types` ADD `DR` SMALLINT(5) NOT NULL;
ALTER TABLE `npc_types` ADD `FR` SMALLINT(5) NOT NULL;
ALTER TABLE `npc_types` ADD `PR` SMALLINT(5) NOT NULL;
ALTER TABLE player_corpses ADD COLUMN timeofdeath timestamp NULL;
ALTER TABLE player_corpses ADD COLUMN zoneid int(11) NOT NULL;


what was happining was that when the zone would check for corpses it would crash and not load zone thus giving compression errors... check your db first to make sure you do not have tables fields first and use at own risk

ill have to try that, brb. I'm gonna go test.

Didn't work bud. :?

Installed telmets. Nice nice, working fine so far. (the dev r3 #2 or something)

Instead of crashing zone on enter with no error. I get windows error on zones.exe with the same exacty error.
