peq eqlaunch corrupt (could be just me)

eqlaunch works fine in that build. Though, it's quite the bit outdated, but sure to get the upgrade pack to get you a bit more current

I just upgraded my private server from build 1129 to Revision 233 and I get the same exact error as Rhodan mentioned. When my batch file calls eqlaunch.exe, it says the system can't run the program. I copied eqlaunch.exe out of the zip for build 1129 and everything seems to work fine.

I read that earlier when I was looking for a fix but it didn't help. I am running under Windows XP and my OS is all up to date. Everything ran perfect with 1129 but when I upgraded to Revision 233 the eqlaunch executable didn't run. Copying the one from Build 1129 seems to work fine since you said it was outdated I figured it was the same exe.

The eqlaunch in 233 is the same one that's in the auto build. If one works, the other will. Anyway, in the link the fix is there. You have to install the C runtime library.

I already have MS Visual C++ 2005 SP1 installed that is dated August 2007. Is there a more recent version that I am overlooking that I need? Should I just roll back to the previous version of Perl and just use the autobuilds when they come out or will all the newer builds use the updated libraries? If so I guess I'll just do a reload and see if there is something wrong with my installs but I'm not having any other issues.

My bad. In editing I did a boo boo. I referred to Revision 233 which is the database but the eqlaunch.exe was from Revision222 from the svn build. The code for eqlaunch may be the same but the exe files are different as mentioned in previous posts from the link on projecteq.net forum. The build 1129 eqlaunch.exe is 220k and the Revision222 one is 148k.
