[Help] Connecting To My Own Server


Question

Posted (edited)

hi

 

 i've been having a problem connecting to my server after everything set up. Would run l2.exe, the splash art would load then after 10-15s .. nothing. Not even l2.exe process in task manager. 

 

i setup l2 high five server, for local use only. ran loginserver and gameserver, no errors. but the client file i download didn't come with l2.exe so had i to download a separate system folder. (also changed the l2.ini file : 127.0.0.1) when i try to load l2.exe it wouldn't run. 

 

so at this point I'm not sure why the problem is happening, i looked around and other people had similar problems but their was only after the game was loaded (during server selection screen). 

 

i'm running windows 10 x64, i have the latest mysql/jdk and navicat premium. 

 

do i need to change default -ipconfig.xml file? in the folder it says not needing to change if use default.

 

thanks for help

 

 

 

p.s. the client i installed said freya (high five) and the splash art during loading says lineage 2 freya, does this not work with l2 h5 server ? (do i have to get a different client/ server files)

Basically is client problem. Have not something to do with your server if the client doesnt run. Everything i think is from windows 10. My idea is to search in topzone-hopzone one h5 server with windows 10 system, download, change l2.ini with your local ip and try to run.  The other way is to find Nwindow.dll file for windows 10(located in l2 system folder). (im not sure if that works i have listen this but i have not try it).

thanks alot m8, btw my system folder is clean with no l2.exe, 

how can i patch my own system folder to make an l2.exe,  for future so i don't have to look around for a system folder with one.

 

i tried the other method creating a bat file with

 

@echo off

start l2.bin

exit

 

but the command runs for half a millisecond then disappears, and l2 doesn't start. So im thinking i'm missing a step here.

Why u go from the hard way? Just download from link of i give you, change the ip with your local ip and all be happy

Paste inside your system and run the patcher. Still, take l2.exe from another patch and use it to launch the game.

So at this point i don't know how to fix this,

 

if i use pre patched system folder i get these two problems:

- doesn't connect to localhost: b/c it doesn't use l2.ini for path

- i get "warning, l2 doesn't run with this windows / files corrupt / damage, please contact administrator"

 

if i try to patch my own system folder i get

"warning! some game files are corrupted or not found!

 

any tips?

 

 preferably change this system folder provided by nikko 

 

----- "try this system: http://apocalyps.eu/...load/system.rar that works on me (windows 10 x64)"

 

 so that i can change the address path to connect to localhost, because changing the l2ini in that folder doesn't do anything.

    • ## [1.5.5] - 2026-02-02   ### ✨ New Features - **Discord Login**: You can now sign in with your Discord account. Admins enable and configure Discord login in **cpadmin → Users** (Discord auth settings: Client ID, Client Secret, Redirect URI). If you already have an account with the same email (e.g. forum, Google, or legacy), signing in with Discord links to that account so you keep one profile. Discord login is available on Add Server, My Servers, Vote page, and Premium Ads booking. - **Setup Links**: In **cpadmin → Users**, both Google and Discord login settings now include direct links to their official developer portals (Google Cloud Console and Discord Developer Portal) for easier OAuth app setup.   ### 🔒 Security - **Email Required for Registration**: New user registration via OAuth (Forum, Google, Discord) now requires a valid email address. If the OAuth provider doesn't provide an email (e.g. unverified Discord email), registration is rejected with a clear message. This prevents anonymous accounts and ensures all users can receive important notifications.   ### 🔄 Improvements - **User Auth Badges**: In **cpadmin → Users**, the Registered Members table now shows auth method badges: **Forum**, **Google**, **Discord**, or **Legacy**. Users can have multiple badges if they've linked multiple login methods. - **Server Info Labels**: Translated server info labels (Owner Name, Language, Server Location) are now properly localized in all 5 languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Greek, Russian).   ---   ## [1.5.4] - 2026-02-01   ### ✨ New Features - **Google Login**: You can now sign in with your Google account. Admins enable and configure Google login in **cpadmin → Users** (Google auth settings: Client ID, Client Secret, Redirect URI). If you already have an account with the same email (e.g. forum or legacy), signing in with Google links to that account so you keep one profile. The login menu (navbar and login prompts) offers **Login with Forum Account**, **Login with Google** (when enabled), and **Create Forum Account**. Google login is available on Add Server, My Servers, Profile Settings, Vote page, and Premium Ads booking. - **Ban/Unban Members**: In **cpadmin → Users**, admins can ban or unban registered members. Banned users see a full-page message: "Sorry, you are banned from using this site." When a user is banned, all their servers are set to inactive. - **Moderator Activity Log**: **cpadmin → Moderators** now records when a moderator or admin enters the CPAdmin panel (e.g. "Moderator X entered CPAdmin panel at &lt;time&gt;") and when they change any cpadmin settings (only write actions are logged; read-only use is not). - **Clear Moderator Logs**: Admins can clear all moderator activity log entries via a **Clear logs** button with confirmation. Logs are shown at 100 per page with pagination. - **Filter by Moderator**: In the Moderator Activity Log, a **Filter by moderator** dropdown lets you view activity for a specific moderator or "All moderators." - **cpadmin → Users Tab**: New **Users** tab in the admin panel with Registered Members list (paginated), Google auth settings card, and per-user Ban/Unban and server links.   ### 🔄 Improvements - **cpadmin → Servers**: Each server name in the servers table is now clickable and opens that server’s info page. - **cpadmin → Users – Servers column**: The servers count/list is clickable and opens a small modal listing that user’s servers; each server name in the modal links to the server info page. - **cpadmin → Users – Search**: A search bar above the Registered Members table lets you search by **username**, **email**, or **server name**. Results are filtered on the server (paginated); clearing the search resets the list. - **Moderator Activity Log**: Pagination shows "Showing X–Y of Z" and "Page N of M" with Previous/Next when there are more than 100 entries. - **Login UI**: Login options (Forum, Google, Create account) are shown in a consistent dropdown and in modals (Add Server, My Servers, Vote, Premium Ads) for a clearer sign-in experience. - **Vote Page – Unauthenticated**: When you must log in to vote, the page now shows "Vote for [Server Name]" as the main heading and presents login options in a compact section.   ---   ## [1.5.3] - 2026-01-30   ### ✨ New Features - **File Logs in Admin Panel**: Admins can now view CodeIgniter PHP logs (api/writable/logs) directly in **cpadmin → Logs**. Select a date to view the log file, refresh to reload, or delete all log files to free up space.   ### 🔄 Improvements - **Cache System**: Full cache audit and improvements — when you clear cache in cpadmin, both backend and frontend caches are cleared. Server listings, My Servers, pricing, ad config, and chronicles all refresh with fresh data. New paid servers now appear in listings and My Servers immediately. - **Admin Panel – Server Rates**: Server rates in the admin servers table now display in compact format (e.g. x10000 → x10k, x100000 → x100k, x1000000 → x1m) for easier scanning. Hover to see the full value.
