Can you post a screenshot or something else?

[Mill3nia]

here is a screenshot of what happens when I try to load it http://imgur.com/UCwTyLG
any help getting this running would be awesome, been wanting to run another random loot drop server, the old diablo loot tool I used no longer works, this seems to be the only option I have left. thanks in advance!

Need to make sure that your database configuration in your eqemu_config.xml is valid and that you can actually connect to your DB using it.

yeah the configuration is fine, I'm able to run the server, connect, and play no problems. perhaps the format is wrong of my configuration?
and if I turn off mysql, I receive a Cannot Connect error in place of what I posted previously.

any possibly answers? really looking forward to using this =\

looks like the code to go in and read config is wonky, seems to work by bypassing it.

Ok random question, do you have the correct modules installed?

The code works just fine, I used it for years.

Make sure you have DBI installed correctly.
