pet construct error, actually still have this error

I think it is related to the perl compile version of zone, i just started messing with it today, i dont know of a fix. there is a non-perl version that does work, but no quests with it as far as i know...

i'll look up the link....

try one of the no perl versions listed there, have to beg the others here to find out more about the pet construct error

[iwantavr4]

Run-time check failuer #3- the variable 'petstruct' is being used with being defined.
(press retry to debug the application)

When i get that problem, i hit ignore, otherwise it crashes the zone. Not sure how to fix it. If you hit retry or abort it will usually make you LD. Ignore just lets it continue. I dont know how to fix it...

Failed to open log file: logs/eqemu_error_world_2744.log

For that you just need to create a c:\eqemu\logs directory.

Im adding these extra steps and the sourced in stuff you put here also.. Thanks vRandom.

I'm stumped... Anyone have any advice please?

Okay, before you redo everything. First create a logs directory in your C:\EQEmu folder (C:\EQEmu\logs).

Then, try re-unzipping the EQEmu-0.6.1-DR1-Perl.zip again to your eqemu directory, make sure you overwrite the three files zone, world, and emusharemem.

I think im going to add some troubleshooting steps to the bottom of my minilogin post...

Also:
If you feel the urge to REDO the database, you dont have to reinstall everything. Type the following code to delete the eq database:

DROP database IF EXISTS eq;

You can then redo your database.

cool, posted my findings... Hopefully they will figure it out.

[vRandom]

noticed, i hope so

I'm just happy my merchants work lol

I tried out the perl version they mentioned, compiled yesterday it crashes before even loading, though i could just be really tired and messed it up somehow lol

[edit] oh yah, i can't type now, must be tired

the post with the zspassword what password will that actually change?

[drognir]

I've redone it yet again, but still getting the same error. I'm starting to think it's not something that i'm doing wrong, because i followed the steps correctly all 3 times. I don't know what else to do, i tried re-extracting the file you said to, and it's still not working. If anyone can help, i'd really appreciate it. Thanks

[iwantavr4]

i know you already said you followed it to the letter...

But maybe you have a zone.exe in your folder.. and its trying to run off that?

Is your boot5zones have start zonerperl instead of start zone, in them?

Should look like this in the middle of the file:

start zoneperl . 172.16.21.80 8780 127.0.0.1
start zoneperl . 172.16.21.80 8781 127.0.0.1
start zoneperl . 172.16.21.80 8782 127.0.0.1
start zoneperl . 172.16.21.80 8783 127.0.0.1
start zoneperl . 172.16.21.80 8784 127.0.0.1

Easy way to check would be see if you have a zone.exe in your folders, if so delete it, then rerun and see if your boot5zones even works at all.

Also did you fix the logs errors? All you should need to do is create a folder for that... should be easy

In the database there is a table called character_ change the zonename of your char to something else north, example freeport's zone name is freportn (if your faction would allow you to go there). You might end up in a weird place do to the x,y,z being different, but you can type #zone [zonename] after you get logged in, if you do the #zone [name of current zone] you will get moved to the safe point in that zone.

at lease thats how i got mine back to working....

Zone names are the file names without the extension in the maps folder, use them with the #zone command.

hope that helps

well the problem is i cant type anything it tries to rezone me within a milisecond so i cant rezone myself even when i login it loops this
