Trouble connecting and then unhandled exception error?

[PitifulJester]

I was actually able to start the servers via local host. The game started up and I got the FFXI - 3101 error. If I try to connect using the external IP or even local IP it doesn't even get to the login screen for Windower. Any idea why that is? I tried to figure it out and now the game server doesn't even start. Even though I haven't changed anything in the tables I've completely deleted all the tables and re-entered them with no luck still. It feels like I've gotten so close but I'm moving backwards now.

If it helps, in NaviCat I have 95 tables. I've changed the server config files to use my password that I set, and I have changed the value of the zoneip to my external IP, 96.255.95.124. To fix the game server not initializing, what should I do? Go back into Visual Studio? I'm at a loss of what to do haha been working on this nonstop all night. If I try to press retry to debug the gameserver failing, it just crashes. Is there a way to see what exactly is going on? I checked the log for the map_server and this is what I see:

[17/May] [14:42:03][1;37m[Info][0m Console Silent Setting: 0[1;32m[Status][0m Memory manager initialised: [1;37mlog/DSP.leaks[0m
[1;37m[Info][0m DarkStar - Git Revision Hash: [1;37mUnknown[0m.
[1;32m[Status][0m do_init: begin server initialization...
[17/May] [14:47:02][1;37m[Info][0m Console Silent Setting: 0

It stops at that point.

In the Visual Studio, I selected the game server and started a new instance in an attempt to debug it, this is what it came up with:

Unhandled exception at 0x755ADAE8 in DSGame-server.exe: Microsoft C++ exception: std::out_of_range at memory location 0x0018CD24. What happened here, and how do I fix this?

Thanks again guys and sorry for the long post.

Fixed it! I guess I must have screwed something up, so I just simply pulled over the backup files I made and it works just fine now. Now all I need to do is figure out why I'm getting this FFXI 3101 error.

Okay so when I run everything on localhost including the zoneip, it loads up fine. Why does it fail when I try to use an external IP?
Thanks

Okay everything seems like it works fine - just gotta iron out this FFXI-3001 error. Even if I shut down the server completely and try to relog it fails and I get that. I guess there needs to be a timer?
