[Wumpas]

Darkyth I have the same problem My 5.1 server runs fine my 5.2dr1 works fine my 5.2 same setup with every posible database configuration and sourcing combination imaginable does not work. I too have ruled out my database as boot5zones and world connect fine and server is not locked. . . I hate saying this next part as it tends to invoke the rath of everyone but. . . 1017 !!

(Wumpas hides under a chair cowering)

Im going to try again tonight I think I sourced my database from scratch at least 15 times today and even used dragons pre sourced database unsucessfully (I don't think its a database problem)... That said does 5.2 have any changes to ports or methods of connection that could affect how it runs with certain firewall settings. (AGAIN 5.1 and 5.2dr1 work flawlessly)

(Note: the 5.2 release and 5.2 source both produce same error)

If i find any way to get this to work ill post it but Im about to throw in the towel for the day as i spent 7 hours frying my eyes in front of my computer to get it to work. (ATENTION: error is due strikcly to my own errors until proven otherwise by a dev) my day off is once again consumed with

Do WHILE 1017 = 1
{
drop database eq;
create database eq;
source (insert database here)
----unplug pc speaker as it resonates with my fillings no joke !----
grant all privileges on *.* to eqemu@localhost identified by 'eqemu' with grant option;
INSERT INTO account SET name='eqemu', password='eqemu', status=200;

check the Forums for possible causes or signs im not the only one in the boat.
}

For those that dont understand my pseudo code just repeat those steps over and over and over and over changing every variable you can until it works :P it may help to down a beer on every other loop.
