ok sorry to bring this up again but i've been banging my head against the wall for the last 10 days to get this awesome tool to work. I've gotten desperate...
I thought that i had this figured out because I realized i was running a 64bit server. I got it working on a 32bit server on another machine with windows 7 64 bit ultimate.
So I uninstalled everything, MySQL, Perl, deleted the PEQ database folders and any references to these in the registry. I started from scratch, compiled a 32 bit server and reinstalled MySQL and Perl, sourced the PEQ database, sourced in the required files Akkadius explained in the wiki just like i did on my Win 7 machine. The two computers are setup exactly the same.
The server works great, all my other Perl quest files work perfectly, I've done a LOT of research on testing the DBI, DBD::MYSQL connection through Perl. Everything says it is working fine. The only difference I can see is that this machine is running Window 8.1.
Does anyone know if something needs to be set in Win8.1 that doesn't need to be in Win7 to make this work?
I have tried to check permissions on folders and such but I don't see anything that would be blocking this one perl script from working when all other perl scripts work.
I know I'm not missing something like setting my status > 200 or adding the code to the global_player.pl. It's all there just like on the Win7 machine.
It's great that it works on my laptop but it doesn't have the power of my desktop and I've run out of ideas to try.
I also tried your suggestion Shendare of adding it to a player.pl in a particular zone folder. Thanks for the tip but it still didn't work.
I hope someone can help before I go insane... lol
Thanks guys
