zone ruleset loading question

it will either load the zone custom ruleset or the default,

I'm only trying to load a custom ruleset, but whenever I zone into the zone, the default ruleset is loaded. When I look at the zone.cpp code block, I see that it will do exactly that, if I have have a custom ruleset specified.

Code:

if(rules->GetActiveRulesetID() != default_ruleset)

This if block executes, because my custom ruleset id is 2(and the default is apparently 1). And inside the if block, it just loads the default, and I'm not sure why, unless it is only supposed to execute when 'LoadZoneCFG(zone->GetShortName(), zone->GetInstanceVersion(), true)' returns an error, like so:

Code:

 //load the zone config file.
        if (!LoadZoneCFG(zone->GetShortName(), zone->GetInstanceVersion(), true)) { // try loading the zone name...
                LoadZoneCFG(zone->GetFileName(), zone->GetInstanceVersion()); // if that fails, try the file name, then load defaults

               if(rules->GetActiveRulesetID() != default_ruleset)
               {
                       string r_name = rules->GetRulesetName(&database, default_ruleset);
                       if(r_name.size() > 0)
                       {
                                rules->LoadRules(&database, r_name.c_str());
                       }
                }
       }

To see illustrate this behavior I added a line in GetRuleSetID in common/rulesys.cpp (@line ~353) as follows:

Code:

 if (db->RunQuery(query, MakeAnyLenString(&query, 
                "SELECT ruleset_id"
                " FROM rule_sets"
                " WHERE name='%s'", rst), errbuf, &result))
        {
                if((row = mysql_fetch_row(result))) {
                        res = atoi(row[0]);
                        LogFile->write(EQEMuLog::Error, "Fred: %s: %s",query,row[0]);
                }
                mysql_free_result(result);
        } else {

Which leads to zone output as below. You can see where it tells me it's loading my custom ruleset, then below that it 'quietly' loads the default.
