Name rejected only on some characters.

[samandhi]

My server seems to be up and running just fine, but when I try and create <or anyone else as a matter of fact> an iksar or vah shir, I keep getting the "name rejected" error with any name I choose. I have tried dumping and replacing the db, and reinstalling eq. Even tried clearing the names in the db <found another post that had a similar problem and someone was kind enough to give the code for clearing the name, cause I dont know SQL at all hehe>. Here are my readings... If somone would help me out I would very much appreciate it.

I am using mw_052_053_alpha2.sql db with the update.sql that came with 0.5.3dr2... Again, any help would be most appreciated, as I cant find a post the has the same problem as this <though similar, the fixes for those problems didnt work with mine>... And also, those are the ONLY 2 chars I cant create due to the problem....

[Squiffy]

I run a live server, and have the same thing happen. Nobody can create cats lizards or frogs.

MW, current release, added GoD zones, added Myra's PoP. Everything worked fine 3-4 days ago.

[samandhi]

Yeah your right ... froggies too... I have been searching and searching, and trying new things and still nothing..... :( Is anyone else having this problem? I noticed that my son was not able to make a frog on someone else's server because of the name thing, but I dont remember on what server it was, as I didint think there was a problem at the time. So lets see, I have reinstalled EQ, reinstalled the db (hell, reinstalled mysql from scratch hehe), reinstalled (re-compiled eqemu).... there isnt anything left to reinstall... I wonder if it is something in the db iteself, as it is the only common denominator in this (the only thing that has stayed the same), though I have re-sourced it into mysql.

I know some servers have those races disabled and when you try to make one of them you get that error.

[Squiffy]

One funny side-note. I created a frog to test out what was happening, and it sent to World.exe as Race: 74. Looked that up out of curiosity since I thought Frogs were race 330 or so, and race 74 = Pirahna... so for some reason my client's telling World I'm trying to create a newbie Pirahna Paladin

The other race #s are fine, though, and still won't create.

Getting same problem using EQEmu-0.5.3-DR2- Win32-1-12-04. I have tryed both ways. With the default DB.sql and Dumpeditems.sql, as well as with MW_051_052_alpha1 sourced in.

Anyone got a fix for this? I read other post that suggest its a corrupt database, but Im getting the same issue the default DB.

[samandhi]

I checked out the table data for start_zones in mw_052_053_alpha2.sql and everthing seems to be in order... In other words, If you look at what race and choice world.exe assigned for that particular character

then look at the data in the table start_zones, you will see there IS choice 13, and if you look at character ids, 130 IS the cat <which is also listed in the table correctly... Also the correct starting zone is listed in that table, so I am not understanding why it is doing this... I dont think it is the db that is the problem here, but I wonder if there is somethinag amiss in the code <which I dont know how to read>... Any research or advise from the experts would be GREAT at this time, as I dont seem to be the only one with this problem. TiA

[Squiffy]

Bump... anyone out there have a clue? Still not working for me.

[wize_one]

upgrade to DR3 they work..

[samandhi]

Yeah, upgrade done, and now am able to use all characters. Musta' been something in the code...
