That Zone is Unavailable

First Question:

I'm running Win 2k Server.


Second: Tryit just gave me an Idea. This could be an issue of File permisions. The database doesn't have permisions to see/maybe edit the files it needs too. As the username and password given to the database on my system are not that of a win 2k user of any type.

This is most likely a stretch but if by coping the same files to these directories but only threw a different means makes it work.. Then permisions sure sound posible!

Will try and check it out over lunch.

Well nothing on the file permisions side looks to restrictive (everything in the Everquest Dir and the eqemu Dir Full to everyone)


Still not sure... It just dumps me back to server select when I try to enter world


2k server
Login Server v1.0 ( I know not supported)
eqemu v0.3.0

When I installed it on the second server and got it working I did things a bit different, right out of the box I used the dos version of mysql prompt and did the following mixing it with the directions that came with 3.0 and minilogin 3.0

mysql -u mylogin;
create database eq;
source db.sql;

then I used localhost instead of 127.0.0.1 in all the files except
the boot5 bla bla.bat files, I didn't edit them at all.

ran minilogin then world then boot5.bat

by the way I just renamed boot5zones to just boot5 to save a few keystrokes.

whoops I forgot to say I also typed

use eq;

I read your post wrong at first

I know it's like 23 days late, but I had this problem today, and the solution is easy. All you have to do, is go into your loginserver.ini file and change the localhosts to your ip (I assume it works with login 1.0, cause it's got nothing to do with private login). So the answer was right in the readme. Just remember to read the readme carefully checking your work and use the search function before posting. Most of the posts on this message board are from ppl not reading the readme, or are double posts. Anyways, good luck.
