FYI, here is where it has SVN crossed out with GIT references. (in case it needs updating)

CANCEL THAT. Shit. My wine (not the linux version) wandered me to EQ1. Fail! Bear with me, this is my week off work and here I am still in front of a PC doing coding and SQL and server maintenance LOL!

Back to looking at this.. I see that the eq2 database (what I called my world db) and eq2ls database have some overlap. Is there a reason these were kept separate? I restored my eq2 db from backup again so that eq2ls script doesn't overwrite anything. Should I keep these separate, or perhaps a [better] merge attempt? I have my EQ1 database including login running off a single DB. Not that it's needed.. just seems better self-contained. What do you recommend?

The ones that overlap can probably live together, I had mine living together locally.
They were probably kept separate to avoid issues, but I didn't notice anything weird happening with them together.

Which ones overlap? Opcodes?

I don't have the script output copied, but there was a bunch of deletes and inserts, with the deletes massively outweighing the insert #s. Backing out yet again, and tweaking a few things (buzz at this point and don't recall the exact ini changes), I got a whollllllle lot of green output now launching world (without minilogin) and a bunch of successful updates. Was still on port 9103. Still have the same red errors as previous, but hadn't made any of those suggested fixes yet. Closer to a fully working server without error. Something I noticed (but maybe never realized) - I don't get a server select. If I set the eq2emulator login server, do we not have options of our own servers? Is Minilogin the only option for that?

Server selection happens during character creation.

As far as I'm aware, 9104 is the _new_ updater port. If you can use 9104, you should.

Tried switching after the previous success.

This is with 0.7.2 pre-compiled version.

Yeah, you'll most likely need a newer version from svn to use the new updater.

If I'm not mistaking, bugs table is the only table different in eq2ls and world. You can merge them together, or rather import the tables that only exist for eq2ls into world database.and have just one database.

A log file would help us determine what errors you are getting and how to fix it. Make sure you use the struct.xml files found in the source structs folder. Needs to be in same folder as world.exe (Loginserver needs structs.xml as well). Other possibilities are missing tables or columns, and all scripts folders should go into same sir as world.exe. Those are the most common reasons for errors.

Be sure you registered your server Account Management or your server will no show up on our login server.

9104 may be down. There was an IP change, and I'm not sure if Jabantiz has fixed it yet. Other than opcodes, everything should be in the database dump, and [mention]Ememjr[/mention] may have latest opcodes.

We do not have a pre-compiled version for the new patcher yet. To use the new patcher you need to compile the source yourself from svn, using the precompiled exe's the old patcher on port 9103 should work.

As for your errors when updating it looks like it is trying to insert data but the table structure is off, try nuking your entire db for world then running it again.

Ok, that's probably a combination of the issue. Is the latest source compatible with live checked into the SVN? I'll also try a DB nuke (as stated, no real character data beyond creation).

Yes, the code on the public svn should work with live.

Rebuilding from SVN now. Building debug (didn't check before building). Was successful. Rebuilding release.

Build succeeded. Crash on launch from server. This was a clean server, eq2 database fresh create:
