Problem setting up a Hercules server

[BattleGrounds 0]

After several failed attempts setting up a server (both client and server side), I decided to follow Patskie's guide, but still can't get the server to run.

 

Here's how my char-server, inter-server, and map-server look:

 

char-server

 

inter-server

 

map-server

 

As I configured the user and password just as the guide, I used root for user and ragnarok for password for everything (conf and mysql).

 

MySQL Workbench home screen looks like this

 

And the editor like this

 

The login error I receive when trying to run the server is this

 

Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks.

inter-server.conf should look like this
 

 

// Hercules InterServer (settings shared/used by more than 1 server) configuration.

// Options for both versions

// Log Inter Connections, etc.?
log_inter: 1

// Inter Log Filename
inter_log_filename: log/inter.log

// Level range for sharing within a party
party_share_level: 15

// SQL version options only

// You can specify the codepage to use in your mySQL tables here.
// (Note that this feature requires MySQL 4.1+)
//default_codepage:


// For IPs, ideally under linux, you want to use localhost instead of 127.0.0.1
// Under windows, you want to use 127.0.0.1. If you see a message like
// "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)"
// and you have localhost, switch it to 127.0.0.1

// Global SQL settings
// overridden by local settings when the hostname is defined there
// (currently only the login-server reads/obeys these settings)

Can you download notepad++ and repost the pictures here.
