Problems with all quests.

[rev_dynamo]

Yes, I ran all those commands before. When I tried to do it again it just told me those packages are already installed. It activeperl always running in the background? Perhaps I need to start it somehow before the server goes up?

I've played on PEQ's public server and their quests seem to work just dandy...

I'm thinking that somehow the EQEmu files are in the wrong places. The quests are where they belong. All the quest .pl files are in there. I looked in the plugins file and it was empty, but there was a plugin.pl file in the main EQEmu file... does that belong in there? I'm just checking every detail to see what I did wrong because it's probably some minor mistake.

I think I may have figured at least something out...

When I use the batch command given in the server setup faq, it says there should be a window that says "0:sleeping". This does, in fact, happen, but I thought there would be some comments about perl running (nothing pops up in the world.exe window about perl).

Just for testing sake I ran the batch file and then ran zone.exe after everything loaded. I got another "0:sleeping" window, but this time a nice long string of perl execution lines scrolled by. Now when I chat in a zone, the text pops up in this window.

So, is eqlaunch.exe not calling the zone.exe command properly? Should I change something in my batch file? Since I'm the only one playing on this server (for now), should I change the batch command "start eqlaunch.exe zone" to "start eqlaunch.exe" followed by "start zone.exe"?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Is your plugins folder located in the eqemu\ directory? I think by default it gets placed in eqemu\quests\plugins
If the plugins folder is not in the eqemu\ directory turnins and other quest functions will not work.

Below is the batch file I use to startup my minilogin test server. It has always worked for me

@echo off
start minilogin.exe
Echo Please wait for Minilogin to fully boot up.
pause
start world.exe
cls
echo Wait for World to finish loading... Press Enter when done.
pause
start eqlaunch.exe zone
exit
