1017 problemo, yet again.

[taran99]

I just upgraded to 5.5-DR1, re-setup the whole thing. I'm mean, started from scratch. I have other people logging onto my server, no problem, and i can see they're creating characters, but I myself still have a problem logging onto the server.

I have the most recent patch as of the 16th or march. I'm running win xp, i have a d-link di-804hv router. my computer is in the dmz (and now that i've posted that, i'm sure i'm gonna get hacked). I have the 0.5.5-DR1 server, using minilogin, and the MW055-alpha-02.sql database. I'm going to try another database, to see if that's the prob.

here's what my prompt says when i try to log on:

311890 New client ip: *my ip address* port: 1046

Removing Client from ip: *my ip address* port:1046
Zoneserver SetZone: *my ip address*:7999 <0>
Zoneserver SetZone: *my ip address*:7999 <0>

it does that message twice when i try to log on.

And i guess it's doing the same thing when other people connect to my server now that i look at it. It just lets them connect, create characters, and then it boots them. Am i missing a program?

Anyone know what i can do?

if i put in "localhost" where 192.168.0.100 is, it comes up with 127.0.0.1, and no-one can log onto it.



And this is what it says when i try to log in: (the binaries)

This is after i started on a clean slate. followed the guides for installation, and so forth.

Phew, anything else, please let me know. sorry again for the hugeness of the post.

You said you were using minilogin? It looks as though your trying to login onto the EQEmu login server.

[taran99]

what can i do to change that? is that in the loginserver.ini file? probably the loginserver=eqlogin1.eqemulator.net part... shoot...

[samandhi]

Yes, change the loginserver to localhost or 127.0.0.1 instead of eqlogin1.eqemulator.net

[taran99]

hey guys, thanks for all the help. I got the server to work, at least i created a character and ran around for a few minutes.

Thanks again, you guys rock.

[samandhi]

Glad to hear it... Have fun!!!

[Budaworm]

I am having the same problem, "but" i want to be able to set up a server that people can connect to, how can i fix this? having the 1017 problem also

[Budaworm]

Ok forget my last post, i think i need to use minilogin and so far i havent got it to allow my other computer to connect, my miniloginaccounts.ini looks like this:

192.168.0.253 <name> <pw>

but with the name and pw there, and there is a space after the pw too and it loads up just fine cause it looks like this:

LoginServer.ini read.
MiniLoginAccounts.ini read.
Server mode: Standalone
LoginServer listening on port: 5999

When my other computer trys to connect to my server i get:

48860 New client from isp: 192.168.0.253 port 3030
Logged in: FirstLogin LS#49408: <name>

I have been getting that same problem and my other computer keeps getting 1017, and yes it is same version of eq as on this computer and i didnt update on 3/23/04. I use windowsxp and i did turn off firewall protection too.

Additional information-
LoginServer.ini:

[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginport=5997
worldname=<Server name here>
worldaddress=<my ip address>
locked=false

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=0
Unavailzone=

[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Standalone
ServerPort=5999
UplinkAddress=
UplinkPort=
UplinkAccount=
UplinkPassword=

db.ini:

[Database]
host=localhost
user=<user>
password=<pw>
database=eq
compression=off

Can anyone help me?

P.S. the words in the < > are replaced with the correct info

[samandhi]

loginserver=eqlogin1.eqemulator.net

Change that line to read:

 loginserver=localhost

You are trying to connect to the EQEMu loginservers and not to minilogin....Hope that helps..

[taran99]

check the consistency with the ports your loginserver is listening to, and what your loginserver.ini is configured to look for.

Your server is listening on port 5999, and your loginserver.ini is configured to call to port 5997. That was the same problem i was having.

[samandhi]

This is his loginserver:

[LoginServer]
loginserver=eqlogin1.eqemulator.net
loginport=5997
worldname=<Server name here>
worldaddress=<my ip address>
locked=false

[WorldServer]
Defaultstatus=0
Unavailzone=

[LoginConfig]
ServerMode=Standalone
ServerPort=5999
UplinkAddress=
UplinkPort=
UplinkAccount=
UplinkPassword=

It is set up to listen on 5997 for EQEMu and 5999 for minilogin... The block that says [loginConfig] is for minilogin, and you can see that the port is 5999 there... he will have to change the loginserver block, where it says loginserver= to localhost and that should fix it... One thing to note, though, is he will have to change his eqhost.txt file to also say localhost and port 5999 as it is default to 5997 for EQEMu...

[taran99]

depending on what type of network setting he has for his localhost. Mine was set to 127.0.0.1... it wasn't my internal ip, and that's where most of my problems were coming from. That, and the port settings.
