Quest Not Running

[Noport]

because i tested and approved it does work don't knock it until you try it for yourself cOncrete before you reply to a question you don't understand. install 5.14 and use perl5.10.dll and perl 5.10.1 application.

Or, obtain the latest code from the SVN, compile using Akka's easy to follow guide and that way the end user (the OP in this case) who doesn't seem all too familiar with EQEMU, its error messages, etc. will have the latest bug fixed versions. Not to mention, know how to keep his/her source updated when fixes and/or improvements are made.

Personally, I cannot figure out why there are any pre-compiled versions available, though again, that's just me.

Is XAMP good to suggest? Perhaps (as it would provide Apache and PHP which are both needed for the PEQ PHP editor, should someone decide to use it, as well as MySQL/Perl which is most certainly needed).

Though, who's going to offer the support for XAMP when the OP encounters issues? You Noport? No offense, but, your English is broken at best.. perhaps it's not your primary language, maybe, it's your forth language (kuddo's to your multi-lingual self if so) but the fact remains, your English leaves little to be desired bud. So it will be someone else that picks up the pieces, not only assisting the OP with EQEMU, but now XAMP and/or it's installation. Maybe, maybe not, the possibility is there though.

My recommendation to the OP. Use the Windows setup guide available, using Akka's guide to compile your own. VS 2010 Express is free and will compile 32 bit versions all day long (until M$ changes that, should they change that). Relying on packages won't teach you a thing besides how to extract and/or run a setup program.

i know superfluous is a big word and all...

i'm still trying to figure out what mysql has to do with the problem and why anyone would want to install a bundle of software (xampp) when they can download perl by itself. especially given the fact that's the only thing they are having an issue with.

K.I.S.S. (keep it simple, stupid)

I apologize if this caused any problems between people. I found a version of perl 5.10 but its a zipped up fil of an already installed perl and does not have a launcher so inda leaves me in the dark about how to work with it.

I know I am not a genious when i comes to this perl and mysql shit but the moe questions I ask the more I can learn and hopefully someone else out there is learning from my questions.

Hardest part for me is getting this thing up and running. After its up I love writing quests, creating mobs and encounters, customizing weapons and generally I don't need any help to figure it out, but to most im sure thats childs play.

I think I am gonna whipe out my OS and start all over from scratch. I will most likely use Akk's guide and hope Its dumbed down enough for me.

I do have a question tho, is there anyway we can get rid of the old ass busted out of date wiki's and setup guides or atleast archive them so that new and potential host's can go by 1 guide?
