Setting up local EQEMu Server v0.4.4-DR1

[sirpez]

OKAY!!! HERE GOES!!!
I've been working on getting this mess to work for days now. Currently i'm able to actually get onto the og in server and stuff, and i can even get all the way to the server select screen for eqemu but of course there's no servers up (at the moment i'm try to set up a server to be played from the same PC as described in your wonderful layout above.). NOW, i know it's because my "world.exe" isn't working right! I ALWAYS get this lame little:

"Failed to connect to database: Error: #1045: Access denied for user 'sirpez@localhost' (Using password: YES) .... etc. etc....."

SO, can't load up that sucker, let alone get the "world.exe flag eqemu 200" mess to stick. I've played around with just about every version of the "GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES..." commands i could find across these forums, and while it seems like they all get accepted by the 'mysql.exe' command thingy, i still get he same error over and over. FOR THE LUV OF GAWD SOME HELP ME I"M GIONG MAD!!!

kk now for the various stuffz ya need for troubleshoots:

-Using windows ME...
-Using EQEmu version 0.4.4 DR1 with telmet blah blah... (the bin file thingy delvore has u download from his tutorials link up top there.)
-Using the 'eqbackup00.zip' thing as my sourced sql for the db... (the one delvore provides up top under his sig.)
