Save the shortcut as something like EOServ Shortcut or whatever you want. Now right click your shortcut and hit properties. Now for target it will have the path to your shortcut in parentheses so for this example I'll use "EOServRev115\eoserv.exe" Now before the first " put a space and add this in: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe\ /K So it's now: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /K "EOServRev115\eoserv.exe" You MUST include the spaces, it's the most important part! Also, don't confuse the slashes! The /K is the only forward slash the rest are \. Now run your shortcut when you want to put your server online and it should run fine. Again guys, do not worry about that config.local.ini not found, even I still get that and run with no problems.

I did all you did, and it came out fine, but when I open the shortcut, theres nothing in it. And when I open the Endless client, it's still not connected and says "Come at a later time." ( Yes I changed the i.p to 127.0.0.1 & followed every single step you posted. ) What now??

You might have a different path to your System32 folder.

Go into Local Disk C: and look for a folder named Windows or WINNT or something. If anything do a search on your computer for cmd.

Then replace the path I put with yours. Just locate your cmd.exe file.

" C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe\ /K E:\Documents and Settings\Jeff\Desktop\server\server files\EOServREV112\eoserv.exe" thats whats in my shortcut and it it says it not valid. any ideas where i messed up?

Nope, I just checked and it's the same path that you told me. Have any other ideas to why it isnt working. This problem seems to be accuring with everyone. I really want my own server, plz help.

Mabe it has something to do with in the config.ini the local host is 0.0.0.0 ? should we have to change that?

Ok so it all loads fine and doesn't just sit blank? Only problem is you can't connect?

The 0.0.0.0 changes what IP's to accept connections from. Leave it as 0.0.0.0 to accept from all IPs. You can change to 127.0.0.1 to just test it out for now and change it later.

I'm not sure what the problem is, try changing port = 8078 to 8077 (it might be in use by another program).

I know it's a stupid question, but it's an easy mistake to make. Be sure you change your IP in econfig.exe to 127.0.0.1 and if you change the port to 8077 change that too.

Other than that the reason your window closes instantly is not the server at all, it's your computer doing that. If the shortcut method doesn't work I'm sure there's other ways to do it. At the moment I have to go to an appointment but when I get back I'll do some google searches and try to find a solution.

P.S. - If you're running windows vista try right clicking and run as administrator.

Then you have a different path to your cmd.exe file. Find it, not hard to find.

robtbs...

SQLite is much easier and is not as buggy and stupid as MySQL.

ii tried changing the port to 8077 nd it still dint work. :/ nd then ii tried changing the config.ini host to 127.0.0.1, to 'test' it. nd it still dint work. ANY IDEAS?! D:

My path is the same, I've already checked it. The only thing thats wrong is that when i open the shortcut, theres nothing in it. I changed the i.p to 127.0.0.1 to test it but it still says no connection when I open Endless, and I think it's because nothings on the command prompt. How come theres nothing on the command prompt and is that the problem I have. If it is, how do I fix it?

[gotmilk8437]

Okay one of my friends was having this problem and I went on TeamViewer and fixed it for him myself.

If you're willing to let me do that add me on MSN (if you don't have one make one at hotmail.com and get windows live messenger if you don't have it as well).

My name on MSN: gotmilk8437@hotmail.com
If I'm not online or away send me an email or something, I'll get back to you I promise.

If you don't know what TeamViewer is...

It's a program that lets one person control another person's computer (you can press the ESC key on your keyboard at any time to exit if you think I'm doing anything inappropriate).

Download TeamViewer

[Zoonar!]

added. ;o nd downloaded. ! :3

Forget about the shortcut. It's not necessary. If you don't want me to fix it myself with TeamViewer then maybe I can teach you how to do it yourself.

Remake your database. Trust me, it will probably work. Also, delete the old code before executing the next one (I had idiots who didn't do that).

After remaking, make sure you can open your database with SQLite Database Browser and go to Browse Data to make sure accounts, characters, and guilds are there. Then go into your config.ini and put the new database name in place of the old one.

If nothing works then post your errors from your error file here and I'll determine what the problem is and hopefully find a solution for it.

[Zoonar!]

Lol. i'm one of thos idiots ;]

[coltont]

ok now i got eoserv.exe workin now i cant even go playgame when my ip is 127.0.0.1 in endless and in the mylite connfig its 0.0.0.0 ???/ i do i even get on the server help

- Make sure you can open your database and all the tables are present.
- Make sure your database is in your EOServRev112 folder.
- Make sure your database name matches the one in your config.ini.

If all that is true and it still doesn't work let me know and tell me exactly what happens.

The only thing classified as Table is accounts...
are there supposed to be other tables?
