What in the world....(HELP)

[ZeroDegrez]

Okay, <gets sick, throws computer out the window>

I wake up one day and I am now getting "You are preformed an illegal operation" EVERY time someone trys to connect to my zones.

The users sees the zone is not avaliable, but on my side(server side) the zone program crashes. what am i doing wrong?...

The world program displays this message:

Attempting autobootup of 'akanon' for Saris

And the zone program lists out like all of these unknoen op code things.

HELP, iv tryed reinstalling EQ, EMU, EQW, the database. nothing.

(I keep a backup of old valuable EQ files so im not running EQ live, im running the verson right before that...so that shouldnt be a prob.

are both ips in your zone file and your db.ini pointed to your internet address? if all else fails make a new db and try then.

[ZeroDegrez]

already made a new DB, and you db.ini doesnt point to your internet address, it is suppose to point to "localhost".

Correction: Your db.ini ONLY points to localhost if your database is running on the same physical machine as your zone and world servers.. I run my database on a windows machine inside my firewall, so I definitely do not use localhost in that file.

FIX:
Here is how you correct the problem..got it working. If you have recently updated make sure the spdat.eff file in your EQ dir matches the file in your server folder.

foolish mistake..but it is something that can slip your mind
