Ok, question

[Balkon]

Where do I type all that? In the MYSQL command line client? I just re-did the WHOLE tutorial over again on a brand new computer in my basement, still the same problem. The world.exe and the zone.exe just dissapear instantly. I tried typing what you said into the SQL command line client and it just gave me some error. In the logs it says cant find database or some crap (Same thing I posted above) I've tried going through the login server and typing my IP, 127.0.0.1 and my Internal 192.168.1.104 and External in every place it asks for it. I tried ports 5999 and 3066 for everything that asks for a port, I have them all unblocked, And I know 100% that I did everything right. What your saying might work but I dont know where to type all that, or how to do it. Thanks for the post, can you guide me a little more? By the way, heres some other error I find in the log, now that I re-did the server thing: ---------------------------------------------
[05.03. - 18:40:33] Starting Log: logs/eqemu_error_zone_4008.log
[05.03. - 18:40:33] Failed to connect to database: Error: #1045: Access denied for user 'eq'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Go to Mysql site and download the MySql Adminsitrator GUI, it's all real easy there

Ok, thanks, hopefully it helps. I'll tell you if it does or if I have a question

[Balkon]

should I set all the places that ask for ports to 5999 or 3306? If not one, which ones need to be set to 5999 and which ones 3306? Also for IP addresses, which ones should be set to localhost and which ones 127.0.0.1?
Thanks

You mean your firewall? is this a windows, linux, or router firewall? If you have a router, you don't need Windows or Linux firewall, unless you have a DMZ server.
heres some ports;
3306/udp 5999/udp 9000/udp 7000 - 7005/udp 3306/tcp 5999/tcp 7000 - 7005/tcp
You don't need to clear ports on your router if you play in your LAN only

If you use static zones, then you have to open more of the 7000 ish zones

[Balkon]

No I mean in the files like LoginServer.txt and eqemu_config.xml. I have my firewall turned off, and all those ports enabled. Im not for sure what static zones are, the only experience with this that I've had is the tutorial I went through. I'musing mini login and right now all I'm trying to do is get the server up, no public or even lan, just trying to get singplayer working and lan later.

What guide did you follow.

If used the latest guide, the GRANT ALL PRIVILAGES command is not needed.


Try this one, as the error you get is normally do to this step being missed in the guide.

set password for 'root'@'localhost' = OLD_PASSWORD('****');

**** being the password for your root account you put in when running the instance server config wizard from the end of the mysql setup. (LEAVE THE ' IN THERE)


To get to where you need to type this in, Start->Programs->Mysql->Mysql Server5->MySql Command Line client

or Go to run, type in cmd, and when that comes up, type in mysql -u root -p



You dont have to be under any database to do this. Just run the command
