World.exe - Error: 10061

[Ejecticus]

Completed just about everything to log on, save for one simple problem. I ran the world.exe program and this is what I get.

Try eqlogin1.eqemulator.net.

Also, use port 5997 if you're using the EQLive client with the public login server.

Hrm, now I receive this at the end of the world.exe command...

World server listening on: 205.188.209.137:9000

Error message: 'Bad server name.

Your server name must follow a few rules (they aren't very well published).

- Make it long enough (> 5 chars?)
- But not too long (< 30 chars?)
- Don't use the word 'server'
- Don't use funky characters.

Can't think of any others at the moment.

Alright, instead of making my own server on the EQEmu login server, I've decided to make a local server. Just need someone to verify my files again, because I'm getting the first error now. ( Error 10061 or something to that sort. )

a) What error you are having and when you are having it.

TCP listening on: 127.0.0.1:9000
World server listening on: 127.0.0.1:9000
Error: LoginServer::Connect: 'TCPConnection::Connect(): connect () failed. Error: 10061

b) What OS (Operating System, IE: Windows 95) you are using

Windows XP Home Edition

c) What EMU Version (IE: 0.3.7) you are using

0.4.4

d) What you are connecting to (Minilogin, Publiclogin, Logging/Hosting into eqlogin.eqemu.net)

Not too sure. Would minilogin be compatible on a local server? I need a bit of enlightenment on this...

Onto the files.

I also ran boot5zones.bat. Noticed that it connects to 127.0.0.1. Any ideas why world.exe wouldn't connect but boot5zones.bat would?

[Merth]

Here's what TCP error 10061 means (found on groups.google.com):

"Could not connect to "server name." Cause: connection
refused (10061)"

The TCP/IP software tried to connect to a server port which did not
respond.

Your LoginServer.ini is:

LoginServer]
loginserver=localhost
loginserver2=localhost
loginport=5999
loginport2=5999

So it looks like port 5999 is not responding on your machine. Have you set up anything to listen at port 5999? Since you were unclear on what you are connecting to (minilogin, publiclogin, etc) - this is your problem. You have not set up minilogin on your computer - or alternatively, you should be pointing LoginServer.ini to the public login server.


However, I think you're following the wrong howto guide. It's not your fault, this site has not been updated in a while. We're working on getting someone to update the forums to make this more clear, but for now, take a look at http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=9648 as a guide for setting up a server. You are attempting to run 0.4.4, which is something I suspect you cannot run - see http://www.eqemulator.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=9376 for more information why.

that wouldn't be a mysql error?
i think i've ran into that error before when i had mysql not running in the background.
