Setting up pre5/11 Velious Beta1 + 6.1DR1 + Minilogin(windows)

Hehe thanks, I moved the file outta the way for now and it works fine.

Not understanding the dump reason really. Though all I needed on the comp playing eq was an edit to the eqhost.txt such as host=10.10.10.11:5999

and that would be it. DB,World,minilogin,zoneperl are all on the other comp hehe.

1) Commands.pl in zone.exe errors: I dont know where to get a valid file for commands.pl. PEQ father says the file is not required, the program works without it.

notice the troublshooting tips

if you dont want the errors create the file and put code below in it (file should be in the directory with world, zone.. etc)

found it somewhere in the forums, but i can't remember where

sub commands_init{}

Thanks for all the help vRandom, i will try that out and see if it fixes the commands.pl error on mine. Youve been very helpful!

for some reason I keep getting error 2006 when I run world.exe "mysql has gone away"
I have tried rebuilding the database as well as completely removing and redoing everything. I would be greatfull for any help.
also I was wondering if the Vel DB contains all the old kunark DB data as well?
thanks,

when you see mysql has gone away, it usually means your server cannot connect to the database. So somewhere in there you have a problem. It can be a number of places, you could have named the db incorrecctly, you could have not put the right name in the db.ini, your sql could be shut down or not on... I would check to make sure your mysql is running properly and ou didnt acidentally name is something else than what is in your db.ini.

About the velious db, yes it includes all of kunark, i was surprised, but it does.

Also please check the first two posts, i will be updating them as fixes come in to make it the best guide that i can.
