Almost Working...

[arew264]

Well, my server is almost working, but, now that my db has been updated (don't think I missed anything), I have the problem that people can't jump or learn spells, etc. I think this is because the energy/stamina/whatever bar below the health bar is perpetually empty (I am not familiar with the client, but a friend who is helping me noticed this). What s going on here? Did I miss a database update in the changelog?

[arew264]

An update, just found that, even with an account's status set to 200, no gm commands work. At all. I also have no addon.ini file anywhere (maybe outdated, but I dunno). Is this related?

What's in your Commands table? If it's the default settings, GM commands should work down to level 20 or so (not all, but some). I have all my players at 150, and they can do everything but take down my world.

[arew264]

Well, that table is empty. No records. At all. Anyonegot a dump of it that I can use?

[Angelox]

Seems like you haven't properly sourced your database, is all I can think of - maybe go over it again? (the database part)

My Commands table is empty as well, but my # commands all work fine. Isn't that an Override table? All the # commands are hard coded into the code as fas as I thought...

as you can see from above. This is taken from command.cpp.

Yea, you're right - I wasn't thinking.
Usually what happens is, they don't see all the directions and resort to asking first. there's many reasons for his problems, he just needs to search for them.
I guess everyone starts here with the same questions , I know I did. The trick is to learn how to search these forums and the Wiki.

[arew264]

Well, I have been searching for somewhere near a week and have nothing. It basically comes down to:
nothing works except movement

and I haven't seen anyone else with this problem. Redled the db and reloaded it - again, and still no. I'm really frustrated here.

[Angelox]

what version database and eqemu binarys are you using?

[arew264]

Well, I have the PEQ Lulin RC1 db and EQemu 0.7.0-845.

[Angelox]

Have you checked the logs in your /eqemu/logs directory? Maybe you can get an idea of what the problem is there -

[arew264]

Think I found it... compiling:
mysql_config:command not found
Somehow I missed that. I'll add it in and recompile.

[arew264]

That was caused because I changed versions of mysql and had to put the new executables in the PATH. Anyway, now I found that it never compiled to begin with, it ended on the error:
eqemucollector: file not found

I guess this is the eqemu packet collector, and does not come by default. Can I simply remove the line from the makefile, or do I need to get it?
Also, the next line:
make -c eqextractor
also has no matching file/folder. Do I need to get this as well?

[arew264]

Well, I had forgotten to copy the spells_us.txt files into it. It works great now.

As you have this working on Linux, can you take a look at the "official" How-To and see what might need to be updated?

I'm interested in getting things up and running on Linux as well. I dumped Microsoft over a year ago for Ubuntu Linux. I've been happy since. Heh
