STILL getting "Bad Login/pw

aqinas · #1 04-27-2002, 08:45 AM

Alright, I've been trying for days now and I still get that Bad login/pw message when I use the account I created. eqhost.txt is where it should be, I've remade my account several times, and I still get that message.

I'm not on AOL but I can't seem to re-activ my account, says it dosent exist, but I can login on EQemu.org just fine.. can anyone help?

What ISP/connection are you using.

You need someone elce to re-auth it then log in. after that anyone can log into the account (as long as u have your user/pass)

I'm using IE on a 56k modem connection.

I got a friend to help me re-auth the account, but he got the message account does not exist when he tried, even though I can still log on the forums with that account (this one)

IE isint an isp.. what company are you paying each month? (hint: the one that sends you a bill in the mail?)

btw, the FORUMS login/password is NOT your EQEmu.org Loginserver login/password.

well that could very well be my problem LOL

pardon my ignorace but where do I sign up for my EQemu.org loginserver account?

If you joined the other 35% of the population that reads my readme.txt, you would know

is step 3 (setting up mySQL) the login/pw part? if it's not I'm not seeing loginserver registration

Shawn319 · #10 04-27-2002, 10:45 AM

no thats not it...

Congrats though!!! you managed to do what 99% of everyone does.. not read CLOSELY

Quote:

3) Run eqw.exe (or the shortcut I told you to make).

4) Click connect and enter your Login and Password for the EQemu Loginserver (You can register one for free at http://eqemu.org/login )

5) Select your server and click "Play EQ"

6)Make your character and when your done click Enter World.

Try reading the front page.

I've read through and re-read throught the readme, gone through and actually done what the directions say multipule times. I've registered the username and password, tried re-authenticating it, tried having a friend re-authenticate it...but i still get a bad username/password. When I go through the directions on running it through minilogin i can actually enter the game and stuff. I made my, mySQL username/password the same as the one I registered here (not the forum one) so as not to get confused. What could I possibly not be doing wrong.
