Database connection issue

[zack221]

Hi just wondering if anyone out there could help me with this problem i am recieving. When i start my start.bat file nothing i happens one screen just flashes then closes the other just says:

Wait for world to finish loading. . . Press enter when done.
Press any key to continue. . .

then i just get a blank screen when i press a key.
i checked my log's in the Eqemu folder and this is what i get:

EQemu_debug_world_2308:
---------------------------------------------
