Cannot Log into my server with MiniLogin

cohaagen · #1 06-18-2008, 04:24 PM

Hey. This is my first attempt at making a server. The server loads properly, and is even listed on EqEmu if I launch it there. My problem is I am trying to login using MiniLogin, but when I enter my account information and password, nothing happens. It says "Logging into the server, please wait..." but cannot get past that point. My MiniLogin screen says there is a client connected when I try to login.
Now, I went through one of the Wiki's for setting up a Minilogin, and it never said anything about linking a password to your account name. This is the problem, because I cannot tell EQ to login to the server without telling it a password (a window pops up and tells me I need to enter a password with my account name), and at the same time, I do not know SQL language and have no idea how to set a password to my account. Here is the command I am using to create an account:
INSERT INTO account (name,STATUS, minilogin_ip) VALUES('namegoeshere',250,'127.0.0.1');
I know Minilogin goes off of IP addresses, I just need to know how to get past this password issue for now. Also, I am not currently running on EQ Titanium. I am getting it soon (hopefully), and I know that may be the problem too.

OK, you can type ANYTHING in the password prompt, it will take it. Did you put your actual IP address as your minilogin ip and NOT 127.0.0.1?

INSERT INTO account (name,STATUS, minilogin_ip) VALUES('namegoeshere',250,'127.0.0.1');

namegoeshere is your actual account name - 250 is GM Status and then
Change the 127.0.0.1 to your computers actual IP address whatever it is IE:192.168.1.1

PS. This should be in the minilogin support section, but your new....

Ok, I tried using my IP (which is 192.168.0.4) for my MiniLogin and the other files, but the same problem occurs. Here are the contents of my files; hopefully you might spot a problem. Also, to make sure I am in the right spot for editing accounts in my database, here is what I did. Loaded up MySQL. Entered my password to get in. Typed "\u peq" to access the PEQ DB. Then I did the "INSERT INTO account" stuff. Am I making a mistake here when trying to add an account to my DB?

eqemu_config:
<?xml version="1.0">
<server>
<world>
<shortname>Name</shortname>
<longname>LongName</longname>






<loginserver>
<host>192.168.0.4</host>
<port>5999</port>
<account></account>
<password></password>
</loginserver>


<key>some long random string</key>


<http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" />
</world>


<database>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>3306</port>
<username>root</username>
<password>*******</password>
<db>peq</db>
</database>
</server>

I should have read your post more carefully, this is your problem

You MUST have Titanium and NOT a Downloaded Version!!!

Thanks for responding quickly. I got my EQ Titanium installed, so I am now past the "Logging in to server... please wait..." screen. My problem now is that my server doesn't pop up in the server list. I am still trying to use Minilogin, so there are zero servers listed. Any clues on how to get my server to appear in the server list?

Have you altered your database entry to be MiniLogin instead of public?

Aramid · #7 06-19-2008, 04:14 PM

Try these changes in red and delete the missing lines.... This is how I have it and it works on my server.

Hmmm... I tried entering those IP's you suggested and changing the login to Minilogin, but it still is not showing my server. I would appreciate any further tips, and in the meantime I will be surfing the forums for answers. Thanks.

Do you have a firewall blocking the ports, perhaps?

cohaagen · #10 06-19-2008, 04:52 PM

Ill check my firewall. One question though: you say that the table variable needs to be set to MiniLogin and not public. How do I set my table variable to MiniLogin?(I am not certain that I have yet).

Andrew80k · #11 06-19-2008, 05:25 PM

Code:

UPDATE variables SET value='Minilogin' WHERE varname='LoginType';

use your favorite DB interface to update or the mysql command line.

cohaagen · #12 06-19-2008, 05:32 PM

Yup Andrew that did it. I never entered that command code into my DB until now. My server appears just fine. Thanks for your help. Heh, hopefully my server runs without any problems.
