Local Server Issues

[Uleat]

Real quick..the file that you renamed is the problem with the startup. Executable files (*.exe, *.com, etc...) are files that have been compiled from source code (text files) into a binary executable. The file that you renamed is actually a *.manifest file created by VC and not a compiled binary nor a source code file. Delete the file that you renamed from the source file directory and then come back to the parent source file directory and right-click it, then select SVN Update to ensure that no needed files were deleted.

If you had 5 successfully build, you should have 5 files to copy in your /build/ directory..At least all of mine are there in the Win32 build. Each file will be named based on the name of each project in the Server.sln. I actually have 6 builds using VC9.0 and Win32, but I know there are differences that I haven't played with yet.

Again, you should be using the <eqemu_config.xml> and <login.ini> versions that I post earlier. If you choose to use 192.168.1.50 address for everything, you must use 127.0.0.1 for the database settings in each file or the server programs won't be able to locate it..unless you set up your mysql server to run at 192.168.1.50:3306..but let's not even go there. (Using your network address will work, but adds a tiny bit of not-needed overhead for every packet sent and received, and you could run into the firewall issues Cilraaz alluded to.)

Checklist still inc..

ok thanks a bunch for the help guys. You have all been very helpful and patient with me. I really do appreciate it.

After listening to Uleat, Sorvani, and Lerxst2112, I think I've gotten my files MOSTLY straightened out. I think I'm very close to being up and running.

When I start my batch file, I get three windows up and the 5 zones running with no errors that I can see.

When I log into my Titanium client, I immediately get an "invalid username/password" message. So I obviously have something wrong.

Uleat, I believe I have my files set the way you described in your other post. But to be sure, I'll post them here. If anyone can take a look and possibly tell me why I'm getting the invalid username/password message when logging in, that would be great. I have a feeling my error is being narrowed down to something in one of these files. if not, maybe you guys can point me to where it will be:
