Loginserver Blank :(

Not currently. My client is on the same PC as my server.

I'm assuming you are referring to the local login server?

The issue is most likely in how you configured the 4 tables.

tblloginserveraccounts
tblserveradminregistration
tblserverlisttype
tblworldserverregistration

Combine this set up with the login.ini and the eqemu_config.xml file and it can be confusing. Trust me, it took me a while. Follow the instructions as laid out in the loginserver setup guide:
http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?Windows...er_Setup_Guide

The database db, user and password are what you assigned to your database. This same information also needs to be entered in your eqemu_config.xml.

For the host addresses, just use 127.0.0.1 use that for the addresses in the eqemu_config file as well as the host in the login.ini.

Now this is critical and really easy to overlook... The account and password on the loginserver needs to be the same account and password you used in the tblserveradminregistration table! THAT IS CRITICAL! Without it, your server will only show up once, because the information in the database won't match what is in the database.
account needs set to the AccountName from the tblserveradminregistration table.
password needs to be set to the AccountPassword from the tblserveradminregistration table.
<loginserver>
<host>127.0.0.1</host>
<port>5998</port>
<account>AdminAccountName</account>
<password>AdminAccountPassword</password>
</loginserver>



Once again, for all the address or ip= or host addresses, use 127.0.0.1. Even set the chat and mail to 127.0.0.1!

One last thing, use the SQL script from the login server setup guide to set up your loginserver accounts. It must encrypt the password and that script does it nicely. This may be an issue with my specific set up, but I found it works best if you create an account with a name that does not exist on your server already.

That is what I have learned from spending 4 days getting that login server to work...

Will check into it when I get back home and report back. Thanks!

Alright upon inspection of my tables everything checks out.

I have verified that every entry is correct and in accordance to the guide. SQL is not really difficult for me to work with as I have ran multiple servers over the years and have had a few different EQEmu ones but it seems like once everything was moved over to GIT I haven't had much success when it comes to actually getting the clients to connect.

Every IP has been set to 127.0.0.1 and it seems to be connecting and logging in fine between the applications however when I use my client it just simply is not showing it in the list but it says its connected and acknowledged in the actual server.

I did encrypt the server password and copy the hash over as the password and it connects and says my server is there but its still not showing up in the list.

I'm stumped at this point. Im starting to think this may be a client sided issue.

Side note: I know minilogin is deprecated... but i did try it out last night in a cloned server folder and that still did not work with my client. However it did say I had all of the expansions whereas with the self compiled loginserver it says i have 0 out of 0.

I am half tempted to try it out with the RoF2 client and see if it will work.
