How do I stop players from spawning in Crescent Reach?

*SIGH*

Maybe I'm the one that's not being clear...

I do not want players to spawn in Crescent Reach. At all. Ever.

I went through and replaced all of the starting zone entries that pointed to the new Freeport to Zone ID 9, which is freportw, the old classic Freeport.

When I create a new human warrior, even if I pick East Freeport, the new character starts in Crescent Reach. I do not know why they are starting there or how to make them start where I told them to start.

Apologies...Have you shut down and restarted the server after making your db changes?

If so, perhaps there is an issue in your tables as the server will default you to Crescent Reach if it cant find good info in the db:

{
		LogFile->write(EQEMuLog::Status, "Found starting location in start_zones");
		in_pp->x = atof(row[0]);
		in_pp->y = atof(row[1]);
		in_pp->z = atof(row[2]);
		in_pp->heading = atof(row[3]);
		in_pp->zone_id = in_cc->start_zone;
		in_pp->binds[0].zoneId = atoi(row[4]);
	}
	else
	{
		printf("No start_zones entry in database, using defaults\n");

		if(in_cc->start_zone == RuleI(World, TutorialZoneID))
			in_pp->zone_id = in_cc->start_zone;
		else {
			in_pp->x = in_pp->binds[0].x = -51;
			in_pp->y = in_pp->binds[0].y = -20;
			in_pp->z = in_pp->binds[0].z = 0.79;
			in_pp->zone_id = in_pp->binds[0].zoneId = 394; // Crescent Reach.
		}

	}

That's the thing, I don't THINK there's an error. I changed the start_zone and zoneid fields from 382 (or 383) to 9 and got the xyz coordinates from in-game. There's no reason I can think of why players shouldn't be able to spawn there.
