There is a way to fix this, but you will need to go to the main page then click files on the left. http://www.eqemulator.net
Download EQEMu 0.5.2. In this release you will find a folder labled config. Just take this whole folder and put it in your EQEMu folder (or wherever your emu is). Now it should look like c:\eqemu\config assuming c:\eqemu is where your server is located... This should take care of SOME of those messages.

What is happening (in most of these cases, of course there are exeptions to everything), is that when loading a certain race/class combo, it is looking for a config file for certain zones, and if it cant find it it will try and use the default. If this default is corrupted then you MAY get this error for EVERYTHING you try and load... Not saying this IS the error, but if you use the method described above you WILL avoid problems that WILL arise from not having them (whether it be now or later it will surface in some way, so just fix it now.. read preventative maintenance)... Hope this helps you out.. .

Another way to test this is to make a different race/class combo and do a #movechar on the one in question, then see if you can log back on with that character.. It COULD be a zone issue.. If you have made some quests, and if the quest script is wrong syntax or somethign like that, for that zone, it will crash the zone and give you this error also... Many things like this can happen... It could be just about anything, but mostly something the server deems as illegal in the zone that will cause it to totally crash.. You might try and look at the output of zone.exe and world.exe when you are getting this error... Sometimes it will tell you exactly what is going on here...

You can do this by doing an alt+enter to make the eq client windowed... Then to release the mouse so you can use it while eq client is running just hit alt+shift+r (might have to do it a couple of times, youll know when you see the mouse move around outside of the window)... Now you can look at the outputs of those programs running and do a copy or screenshot so you can paste them here.

Hope something here helps you...
