How do i update my server as now i can't access it because the server is running 2.0.12 and i have 2.1.0 client and it updates automatically :protest:

[KS212]

Don't think Mangos OFFICIALLY supports 2.1.0 yet, you'll have to wait for a proper update.

Note: DON'T run the game w/ the launcher.exe, directly run wow.exe instead and it won't force a thing.

Okay, for everyone who is having Errors/Database Errors/or for anyone who needs help getting this installed.

I will help you :busted_co


1 - download all files

(MaNGOS rev.3653 + ScriptDev2 rev.44 + Restarter + SQL Fixes + Tools)
http://rapidshare.com/files/31789448/Mangos_GUI_170507.rar

(Project Silvermoon Database rev 5)
http://filebeam.com/55faec1d79ff87e7d8afd3e51be417c3

New file Realmlist and DBC files updated by C-O-B-R-A working for 2.1 clients
http://filebeam.com/6bddd1bfeb017d27e6238a8679c19b0e

2 - extract files

a. extract the (Mangos_GUI_170507.rar) to what will be your new WoW 2.0.12-2.1.0 Mangos Directory.

b. make a folder called "SQL" in your Mangos Directory (the one you just extracted Mangos_GUI_170507.rar to)

c. extract PS_mangos_rev5.rar to the SQL folder

d. extract Realmd&DBC.rar to your Mangos Directory (the one you just extracted Mangos_GUI_170507.rar to)

e. Move the file realmd.sql to the SQL Folder (if you don't have this file, then re-extract the Realmd&DBC.rar)

f. Move the folder DBC (from the Realmd&DBC.rar into the mangos directory, there won't be any overwrites, this is a DBC folder containing new & updated files) but if you extracted the Realmd&DBC.rar in the mangos directory already then you don't have to worry about moving the DBC Folder, just say yes to putting the files in the already existing folder

3. (I'm assuming you already have a MySQL Server installed & configured, Along With some sort of SQL Editor.) I personally use SqlYog

a. Open up SqlYog (or whatever you're using) and login.

b. (if you haven't already) create new databases (called realmd & mangos)

c. select realmd (right click) & click on "Restore From SQL Dump"
- in the "Browse" window, go to your Mangos SQL Directory and select realmd.sql, then press open.
- now, press execute.

d. select mangos (right click) & click on "Restore From SQL Dump" then execute.
- in the "Browse" window, go to your Mangos SQL Directory and select mangos.sql, then press open.
- now, press execute.
4. extracting the .maps from your WoW Client

a. you must copy & paste (or move) the ad.exe from the Mangos_GUI_170507.rar & put it in your WoW Directory (not the mangos directory) the WoW Directory. then, create a maps folder, then run the ad.exe

b. after the ad.exe is finished extracting the .maps files from your WoW Client, you must copy & paste the maps folder (or move) to your Mangos directory

c. voila. that part's done . . .


5. go to your mangos directory, and fill in your Login info in your mangos.conf & realmd.conf

such as (this is very important) -

Realmd.conf -
LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;pass;realmd"

Mangos.conf -
LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;pass;realmd"
WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;pass;mangos"

Another reminder, you'll get the login info from your "MySQL" Login info :)

so say you're MySQL login info is this :
Username - bob password - 123

then you'd put your login info in mangos.conf & realmd.conf like so :

Realmd.conf -
LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;bob;123;realmd"

Mangos.conf -
LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;bob;123;realmd"
WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;bob;123;mangos"

/////////////////////////////////////

now, I know this may seem amazing to you, but you should have a working server after following these few easy steps, I do. 'cause I just did everything listed here.

if anyone needs help, post up here. also don't flame me for my noob guide . . . I know it isn't perfect but it's simple & easy to follow.

PS, I'm also assuming you don't have a previous WoW server and that you're just installing a new server . . . if you have a previous server & You're updating, then that's beyond my comprehension. and I don't think I'd be able to help you. although I do think You'd be able to backup your accounts & server settings, which is what I'd recommend before doing this. (if of course you already have a WoW Server)

but, if you do already have a WoW server, then just overwrite the files in your Mangos Directory with the files you get from the (Mangos_GUI_170507.rar)

if I helped anyone, post up and recognize.

////////////

edit, I put in some changes

changes 1 - i added a mini-guide for ad.exe & the maps section

changes 2 - i forgot to put in what you had to do with the folder DBC. it'll show up in the guide now

[Deathcat]

Well the server works but when I try and connect to it I get "Unable to Validate Game Version" I know I have the right patch installed and everything so what could be the problem?

[Deathcat]

[spynix]

[spynix]

but always probleme withe spirit healer :(

[ziddy1232]

Great, i copied your guide and now my server is fucked.

Thank you very much -.-

[XSavi]

Msg for $oulstoned

Great you put that guide up everywhere

But still like everyone tells the same problem occurs with people who have the official wow and playing for fun on other or their own private servers.
I followed every step very carefully and:

f. Move the folder DBC (from the Realmd&DBC.rar into the mangos directory, there won't be any overwrites, this is a DBC folder containing new & updated files) but if you extracted the Realmd&DBC.rar in the mangos directory already then you don't have to worry about moving the DBC Folder, just say yes to putting the files in the already existing folder

It's just not working mate. Like everyone, I get the same error that my server runs another version.

I get the same error. Does anyone know a solution to this problem? Please help.

Thanks

there is no MaNGOS server now support the BC2.1.0
The only thing we can do is just waiting for a proper update.

If this is so, then they shouldn't say that there is an update available to people with 2.1 clients will be able to play. A lot of people have to either reinstall their wow or wait for a new 'working' patch. Imo, only give information if it's already been checked by a few testers or 100% checked by yourself. ( Not pointed vs you , but in general )

[WyCKyD]

Oh well, it looks like it is just another hurry up and wait. Which is fine for me, I play on both the Official and the private servers. :)
I will keep checking every couple of days to see if there is any new progress made in this area. Good guide by the way, just wish it would've worked for the 2.1.0 clients.

Dont work at 2.1.0.6692, w8 for patch :)

www.wowstatus.net | World Of WarCraft - Private Server Status | your source for private WoW servers

[flintt]
