I tried almost everything I could find using search within a week to solve my issues before posting so I'm not a complete noob.
I tried GP-cabal Patch, Snaity's PatchUS, and RZPatch and I cannot connect to the cabal server. I disabled all firewall and am good at networking computer. I don't see launcher or login screen. I have read lots of forum threads and tried on two different computers.
I followed Chumpy, dordort, Mahi, and Cypher's guides. I also downloaded multiple Cabal Client version. I even tried ignoreclientversion=1
here are my logs, please help me.

I cannot connect my GP client as well following your guide. I have read the other posts for connection issue too. Maybe, I don't understand what it means to patching the client. Isn't it just extracting the patched files(cabalmain.exe and Data folder) I download and copy them to the client folder. If so, I did this with the RZ patch and patchus. However, I have tried SAUR0N's patch since I cannot find where to download it.
please help.
nvm - I found my issues - Mixed up CENTOS IP ADDRESS AND MSSQL2005 SERVER IP ADDRESS in all the .ini files. MSSQL2005 Linked Server label was also mismatching with the /etc/odbc.ini file
thanks so much for sharing - BIG Credits to all contributors of development, guides, and tutorials for noobs like me.
