LAN on Server 2003 Error Message
Ok guys got a slight problem here and I have searched for an answer but couldnt find one.
Ive just moved my LAN Server onto a 2003 Server set up Easy PHP 4.3 and opened up ports 5999 3306 9080 and the range 7000-7010 yet I keep getting this same error message which is driving me bananas. "A connection to the server could not be reached" I can see the account login on the server screen new Client from ip **** etc but nothing further happens. I have not patched at all and had no problems running it on Win XP SP2 All the pc's have dedicated IP's in my house as I have a network of 6 computers here. The server is 192.168.0.2 my router is 192.168.0.1 Heres my XML <?xml version="1.0"> <server> <world> <shortname>Carath'Dwr</shortname> <longname>Carath'Dwr</longname> <!-- Only specify these two if you really think you need to. --> <address>192.168.0.1</address> I have changed this a few times to no avail <localaddress>192.168.0.2</localaddress> <!-- Loginserver information. --> <loginserver> <host>192.168.0.2</host> <port>5999</port> <account></account> <password></password> </loginserver> <!-- Server status. Default is unlocked --> <!--<locked/>--> <unlocked/> <!-- Sets the shared key used by zone/launcher to connect to world --> <key>some long random string</key> <!-- Enable and set the port for the HTTP service. --> <http port="9080" enabled="true" mimefile="mime.types" /> </world> <!-- Database configuration, replaces db.ini. --> <database> <host>localhost</host> <port>3306</port> <username>eq</username> <password>eq</password> <db>eq</db> </database> </server> If anyone has managed to get the 7.0 running on Server 2003 I would really appreciate any help that you could give me on this. |

2003 server
2003 server has a firewall, if you have enabled the firewall you will need to allow the exe files to the ports

is it Component Services/Computers/My Computer/properties/Default Protocols? Thats where I have been opening ports. |
Did you configure the loginserver.ini file?
Minilogin still uses it. If it's just a lan setup, you shouldn't have to open any ports... and Server 2003 doesn't turn the firewall on by default, XP does. |

First try setting to disabled. if it fixes your issue then re-enable and try adding the porgrams and ports to the exceptions tab. |

Have been following the steps for Securing a MYSQL Server on Windows in the thread over at http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/...l_windows.html however it is a very longwinded process and I really dont want to have to go through all that everytime I need to configure the darn firewall. Weird as hell though cause I had absolutely no problems with my L2 server but that is using MYSQL 5.0 not Easyphp. if I get it working I shall post again. Thanks for the help guys I really do appreciate it. Dang looks like Im gonna get SP1 and SP3 now lol there goes whats left of my bandwidth this month. |
FYI, my system runs (public) on Win2003 SP1 with no problems at all. I did take down the firewall, but that's because I hate that paranoia crap. Windows is so hackable, if someone wants in bad enough, they're in.
Not sure if you mentioned, but is this a public server (connecting to eqemulator.net as an LS) or minilogin just for you and your LAN? Good luck, let us know how you do. And what you do to solve it, so others may benefit. :) |
Its a minilogin server for Lan but he firewall is up due to some work related stuff my brother has on the network. However its coming down as soon as SP1 is installed.
