Help? Cant get it working....

Dempig · #1 04-13-2002, 01:37 PM

I do everything it says in the read me , and I cant get it working. I tried both to play on another persons server , and to use the mini log in.

When i try to play on a server i make or join anothers , it either kicks me back to login screen right before it goes to character screen , or makes me linkdead when i try and make a character.

When I try to use mini log in ( the 2.6 one with 3.0 , and 2.6 with 2.6 ) when i try to log on at the login screen , it says I have incorrect version and to re run the patch.

Does anyone have any idea whats wrong?

Oh and I have windows xp if that matters.

You have the wrong version of minilogin. you need the new one that can be found at http://eqemu.net/forums/showthread.p...;threadid=1232

I think i did something wrong with the database or something , in the world.exe box after it kicks me off , it says

Error #1054 Unknown column "zonename" iin "fieldlists"
Error in GetCharSelectInfo 'SELECT name,profile.....etc"
and some other stuff.

Logged in: Local: eqemu
Sending list of guilds

i tried using localhost instead of the ip it said to use in boot5zones thing , but still doing the same thing.

Also im on dial up and not using firewalls.

Sounds like you have a corrupted Database. Try and download Drawde's database. copy it to c:mysqlin .... And install that using the same method you would in the MYSql part of the readme. be sure to run winmysqlamin.exe delete out the old database, and create a new one called eq.

are you patched to the latest version?
ignore the unknown opcode...lotsa of em aren't know.

ninja_looter · #13 04-13-2002, 03:38 PM

np man,

First off, Lets take the simple route!

down everything, login/minilogin, world.exe, boot5zone, eqw

1. Goto your Everquest directory... open the EQHOST.txt file.. make sure it reads the following, you can copy and paste it, to make it easy.. ONLY copy between my comments/...

----copy below here-----

[Registration Servers]
{
"eqlogin.eqemu.org:5999"
}
[Login Servers]
{
"eqlogin.eqemu.org:5999"
}

----end copy above here-------

save the file...

and before we proceed have you downloaded EQW?
