OK the problem is in your DBServer config.

In there it asks for MapFileDir. If you put in your map dir there you will get the error you are getting.

What it is actually looking for is the mapinfo.txt file which is located in c:\mud3\mir300\envir

If you change that setting to c:\mud3\mir300\envir you should get rid of the problem you're having.

Let me know how you get on :bannana:

it was already directed to C;/mud3/mir300/envir

when i set up sql and got all the files to set up the database i used files from another folder

it happened to be C:/Downloads/mud3/

could that effect anything or not?

i still get the same messageready to load ini file..
!setup.txt loaded..

Don't know if your previous post was just an error but the dir in DBServ config should look like this;

c:\mud3\mir300\envir NOT c;/mud3/mir300/envir

also, make sure that your map dir is like this;

c:\mud3\mir300\map\

it must have the trailing slash on it but the dbserver config does not
