you have in your post -


[Database]
host=localhost
user=meme
password=ergrgweg
database=
compression=off


need to specify a DB name -

[Database]
host=localhost
user=meme
password=ergrgweg
database= eq <---------- name of your emu mysql DB
compression=off

I did that but I still am having the same problem

[tcsmyworld]

do you have mysql running?
did you source the DB files into your mysql DB?

yes and yes

this problem seems to be effecting quite a bit of people, including me =(

Does anyone know how to fix this because it seems to just have world.exe and boot5zones.bat do this, if I were to run a local server the mini login works but these still do not work. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Same as the error I'm getting here

The EXE's I posted in this post -

http://forums.eqemu.net/viewtopic.php?t=6717

work without any errors except the EQTime error.
Give them a try.

I think those are the files I posted on my site
I've confirmed that the crash is not a DB issue, or at least not caused by errors or incompatibility in the DB. If you start up world.exe without a MySQL server running, you get the exact same error and crash.

Someone said the new bins don't work under 98. Ehh, can't remember who, though. The error you describe is the error in question: with the new bins, 98 acts like you don't have a db loaded. Might find more info about this on IRC.
