Compile problems over the past couple days

[Elkay]

Ok will definitely be reinstalling VS 2002 then.. good thing I have MSDN via work. Not sure whether the problem launching the EXEs at this point is due to the difference in the versions, since I can now compile but when executing I now get problems. At that point I almost have to assume the problem is the version difference, at least to get it executing properly.

Hmm yeah still getting the executing problems here too, lots of ascii spam like before.

Edit: Even having the problems with the pre-compiled versions you linked LE.

Are you 2K2 or 2K3? 2K3 would make me feel a little better. Would love to not have to run concurrent versions if I don't have to.

Sorry, just edited my post. Meant about the pre-compiled versions too. I've been using vs 6.0 but will probably be upgrading to .net 2k3 some time soon anyway.

So the precompiled versions are giving you the same spam? That would make me feel even better hehe. /rude LE.. haha jk bro Back to my backups! =)

Ya, same spam with pre-compiles.

kk, Yah I just noticed it myself. It was caused by an overloaded function called EQEMuLog::write that FNW added in with his changes. Apparently it worked fine on linux, but it caused all kinds of problems on Windows (as you can tell). I'm uploading some fixed versions now. Give me 5 minutes or so and they will be there. The specific problem was in database.cpp on line 4211. I dont have time to debug it fully, so I just took out the argument that was causing it to use his new function.

They are uploaded, btw to save yuorself some trouble: Apparently if your faction tables arent correct, it just exits the program when it tries to read those tables. Run this query:

ALTER TABLE `npc_faction_entries` ADD `npc_value` INT(11) UNSIGNED DEFAULT "0" NOT NULL

Dont ask me why it just exits the program (I didnt write that)

Hmm new error using the new perl compile:

[Error] HandlePacket() Opcode error: Unexpected packet during CLIENT_CONNECTING:
opcode: 0x%04x, size: %i Error message: %s Client error: %s dbasync->Add
Work() returned false, client crash SELECT faction_id,current_value FROM fac
tion_values WHERE char_id = %i SELECT id,profile,zonename,x,y,z,guild,guildrank
FROM character_ WHERE id=%i
Unexpected packet during CLIENT_CONNECTING: OpCode: 0x0355, size: 4

Did I miss a db change I should have sourced in?

[killspree]

For some reason anything after a logfile->write() is being printed to zone.exe. For example the shielding messages are being printed there. I've been commenting out the various logfile->write() in client_packet.cpp to see if I can avoid crashing and each time I can get further along prior to crashing.

Edit: Still locking up shortly after logging in for some reason.

[fathernitwit]

aight, now that lethal pointed out the problem, I know whats wrong with this at least. I didnt even think about the overloaded function intercepting write calls with 2 int args... I am correcting it right now.



and actually on unix, all it did was print a bunch of the binary to the log files, rather interesting.

[cavedude]

Not sure if this helps, but I lock up right after zoning in. I compiled with .NET both with perl and without. The output stayed the same:

when it boots up a zone i get an error about temporary merchant templates. it says

[Status] Loading Temporary Merchant Lists...
Error in LoadTempMerchantData query 'select ml.npcid,ml.slot,ml.itemid,ml.charge
s from merchantlist_temp ml, npc_types nt, spawnentry se, spawn2 s2 where nt.id=
ml.npcid and nt.id=se.npcid and se.spawngroupid=s2.spawngroupid and s2.zone='cab
east' group by ml.npcid,slot order by npcid,slot asc' #1054: Unknown column 'ml.
npcid' in 'field list'

How do i fix it i just added a merchantlist_temp table, but dont know where to go from there. do i even need to worry about this. I have 0 merchants in any zone right now as well

Edit:: as we;; as that, the black screen erroring is gone... although now it just looks like its loading into the zone but goes back to login after a few minutes. is my DB wrong or is it still the server?

[Elkay]

My compile problems were resolved tonight as of about 6PM and the emulator also runs without crashing.

[hypershadow66]

hmm, well it never worked for me but thankfully ajb20 got me a working compile and my server finally works =D. but its the 29th compile
