I download the UPDATED (2-13-2015) STABLE from the post you listed ?

No, the binaries from the update will automatically run eqemu_update.pl and download it if you don't have it. You need to drop the updated binaries as instructed into your server folder and this will occur on its own.

I actually did what the instructions said, I unzipped the whole .rar pack in to my eqemu server folder and let it overwrite all the executables. Then I run the world.exe and that's as far as I got. Is that what you mean ?

Your credentials in your eqemu_config.xml to your MySQL server are wrong, you need to fix it.

Ok, maybe I am misunderstanding something, as I already indicated the current old server I am running now is connecting to the DB from that same file eqemu_config.xml (user name root pass *****) for db login.
I have not changed that config file, I left it in the server folder when I put your world.exe file in there.
I've been running this older server for a few years now, just thought I would update and seen your repack and figured I would try it out.

When world.exe says cannot continue without a MySQL server, its failing to login.

If you installed the repack it is installed MariaDB, another database engine on top of what you had. I would look into that.

Ok, after your last reply, concerning the MariaDB, I had to do some searching because I couldn't find anything related to that from what I found in the zip
file that I got from your link in post here:
http://wiki.eqemulator.org/l/wa/file...015-stable.rar
I was simply unzipping that in to my server folder, letting it overwrite.

But I found an .msi installer you have here:
http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?Akkas_PEQ_Server_Repack which shows content of the MariaDB. I'm about to install it and see what kind of trouble I can get in to
