Stuck at zone server

Post by Valcor » Wed May 13, 2009 6:35 pm

Every time I attempt to login to my own server, it gets stuck on "Connecting to Zone Server". This has happen all this month, and Im running Client 4523L. Ive dropped my database and had it reloaded using the EQ2World.exe. I also have the latest changes to the SVN.

After about 30 seconds, I get booted back to the login screen. I have tryed multiple times and get the same responce

There is something wrong in your setup and it requires a small tweek, its just I can't remember what it is.

You might want to supply more info, like posting contents of your config files (loginserver.ini, world_db.ini, eq2_default.ini, etc.)

Well, after posting in the correct forum and gathering all the info you requested... I found my problem LOL. Wrong IP in the WorldAddress setting of the ini.

Go ahead and delete all this. Thanks for the help, and the heads up.

See how helpful reading the Sticky threads are?

Too bad more people cannot learn from your efforts :) Enjoy!

Make sure your router is forwarding port 9000 to whatever machine is running your World, and that no firewalls are up.

You might also try putting the local IP (192.168.x.x or another local class) in the internalworldaddress= field.

The blank values do not matter (yet).


Edit: I just tried connecting to your world, definitely an IP problem. Do you have a firewall up? Either that, or your IP is wrong. Is it Dynamic everytime you connect? Maybe you should get yourself a DynDNS or No-IP setup.
