You are trying to use a database that is NOT compatible with the version of the emu you are running.... Unless you are patched to the date that 5.6 was still good (equal with live) then you will also have problems connecting with your server when/if you get the server running correctly. I am not sure of the date that 5.6 was still compatible with the live client, as I was away from the boards during this period, but the best way to check is to read the changelog.txt file that comes with the source. Use the last date on that as a general rule of thumb that you have to be patched (your client) to around that time..

If in fact you CAN get a 5.6 DB, AND your client is of the right patch, then you need to change your loginserver.ini to port 5995 instead of 5997.... and you will also have to change your eqhost.txt file to reflect this change.....
