Windows based server Help

[net2kwired]

Hey all, I need alittle help.

I had a working server before the database update.
Once the new DB was launched, I removed my current DB since i don't have any content. I went and got all the server files again(just to be on the safe side). Everything updated right, and appears to work, but when I try to log on I get kicked back to Login.

Im running 6122L client. I tested it on TessEQ2 and was able to login and play, but on my server I keep getting kicked to login. Any Help would be appreciated.

[John Adams]

You should probably post the contents of your console window so we can see what the errors are, if any.


Edit: I just created a character on your server just fine. I am standing in your Queen's Colony zone.

[net2kwired]

Thanks for testing it for me John, But I don't get an error, here is the world

I see where you logged in, the last line is where I tried to log in and then it drops me to login again.. any ideas
I removed your IP

[John Adams]

Hmm, only thing I can think of is maybe your LoginServer.ini needs the internaladdress line filled out? Or if it has it, remove it. The fact others outside your network can hit your server means everything else is working - just something wrong internally - and unfortunately, we cannot fix that.

Post your LoginServer.ini (but take out your account info) and we'll see if something's wrong in there for local logins. It should just work, but with routers and firewalls, you never know.

Mine from TessEQ2:

[LoginServer]
loginserver=eq2emulator.net

Here is my loginserver.ini

### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to.
### --- Change the account and password fields to the information you used when you created your SERVER account.

### --- NOTE: the word "Server" is added to each server automaticly.

I've tried with both with the internalworldaddress and with it #'ed out.

My Firewall on both systems is set to allow all internal network addresses. (but just to check I tried taking down the firewalls entirely.) And Still the same.

Make sure port 9000 is open (forwarded) on the computer you are running EQ2Emu from.

[net2kwired]

it is.

John was able to log on

[link2009]

it is.

Ah, I missed his post, sorry.

I'm not too sure what the issue might be. What if you uncomment external address and just try connecting internally? Does that work?

One thing I did notice is you don't have a logs folder under for directory where you run your world from. There are log files that get written there that may assist us in troubleshooting server problems.

[net2kwired]

I did notice the error writting logs. when i posted my world.exe, and i have fixed it.

You got your subnet mask set right? Usually 255.255.255.0 works for most home networks. My port is the originating port, nothing on your end.

The only thing I can think of if it's not a firewall is that the network address is bad. I have never seen a commercial home network appliance use 192.168.254.x. Normally that would be 192.168.0.1, or 1.1, etc. I'm starting to think your subnet mask is not correct for such a high range in your subnet.
