Getting errors when i try to launch server

[Astal]

Its saying something about error loading items common/memory_mapped_file line 130, no logs appeared for the errors, this happens when I launch world

Did you run shared_memory.exe and let it finish before starting world?

it crashes i believe, no log file though, yeah it disappears after it gets to loading base data.

Getting the same error when running shared_memory, says line 61 in memory_mapped_file.cpp

Then you need to run it from a batch file so it doesn't close.

create a file that has these 3 lines in it:

@echo off
shared_memory.exe
pause

save it as test.bat in your eqemu folder where shared_memory.exe, world.exe, etc are

double click it to run it

let's see what the error says

no error, just stops loading at base data then it says hit any key to continue, the only other error i caught when first running shared memeory is


Eqemu exception (shared memory) in ..\common\memory_mapped_file.cpp at line 61 could not open a file for this shared memory segment

You have a directory called Shared in that directory, right?

yes it has the following files

base_data
items
faction
loot_drop
loot_table
skill_caps and spells

Delete all those files. Let's see what happens when you run test.bat again

no none of them are

imma try switching database once i get my meds today and see if it works, if it does its an error with my db and ill have a lot of work to do :(

The only thing that has me baffled is how is it creating the files without *telling* you that it is creating them (in shared_memory.exe)

You might have a NULL in your database where there shouldn't be one.

What were you doing before you blew it up.
