Yum -y install gcc-c++

Code:

Yum -y install mysqld

Code:

Yum -y install mysql-devel

```
/etc/init.d/iptables stop
```
Start VSFTPD
Code:
```
/etc/init.d/vsftpd start
```

Setup Your FTP
Open the VSFTPD Conf File

Code:

vi /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf

Code:

# Allow anonymous FTP?
anonymous_enable=NO
...
# The directory which vsftpd will try to change
# into after an anonymous login. (Default = /var/ftp)
anon_root=/opt/
...
# Uncomment this to allow local users to log in.
local_enable=YES
...
# Uncomment this to enable any form of FTP write command.
# (Needed even if you want local users to be able to upload files)
write_enable=YES
...
# Uncomment to allow the anonymous FTP user to upload files. This only
# has an effect if global write enable is activated. Also, you will
# obviously need to create a directory writable by the FTP user.
#anon_upload_enable=YES
...
# Uncomment this if you want the anonymous FTP user to be able to create
# new directories.
#anon_mkdir_write_enable=YES
...
# Activate logging of uploads/downloads.
xferlog_enable=YES
...
# You may override where the log file goes if you like.
# The default is shown below.
xferlog_file=/var/log/vsftpd.log

Restart VSFTPD:

Code:

/etc/init.d/vsftpd restart

Vi Basic Commands

"i" insert
"alt"+"w" to stop editing
"shift"+"ZZ" write & exit

Setting Up Mysql
Change your Mysql Root Pass

Code:

mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'

Create Ascent DB

Code:

mysqladmin -h localhost -u root -ppassword create ascent

Create Character DB

Code:

mysqladmin -h localhost -u root -ppassword create character

Create Mysql User

Code:

Mysql -u root

Code:

USE mysql;

Code:

INSERT INTO user (Host, User, Password, Select_priv) VALUES ('', 'USER1', password('supersecret'), 'Y');

Grant Permissions To User

Code:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON ascent.* TO User1;

Code:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON character.* TO User1;

Code:

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Code:

Quit

Restart Mysql

Code:

Service Mysqld Restart

Compiling Ascent
Svn Checkout

Code:

svn co svn://www.emupedia.com/svn/ascent/trunk

Or to get a specific revision:

Code:

svn co -r REVNUMBER svn://www.emupedia.com/svn/ascent/trunk

Configuring

Code:

cd trunk/

Code:

autoreconf --install --force

Code:

./configure --prefix=/opt/ascent/ --libdir=/opt/ascent/lib/

Compile

Code:

Make

Code:

Make Install

Import Your DB
I recommend using NCDB
Checkout NCDB with TortoiseSVN
1. Make a folder on your local computer
2. Right click on the folder and click SVN Checkout
3. Address:
  Code:
```
svn://emupedia.com/svn/ncdb
```
Once it has downloaded you will need to edit the Tool.bat

Once you have edited it run it pressing "w" to import world and "c" to import the character DB
Editing Your Conf Files
You will now need to edit your conf files to make eveything work!

1. Make a directory for the confs
Code:
```
cd /opt/ascent
```
Code:
```
mkdir etc
```
Code:
```
mkdir conf
```
2. Move the confs
Code:
```
cd ~/trunk/src
```
Code:
```
mv ascent.conf /opt/ascent/conf
```
Code:
```
mv realms.conf /opt/ascent/conf
```
Code:
```
mv logonserver.conf /opt/ascent/etc
```
3. Edit logonserver.conf
Code:
```
cd /opt/ascent/etc
```
Code:
```
vi logonserver.conf
```
4. Edit Ascent.conf
Code:
```
cd ../conf
```
Code:
```
vi ascent.conf
```
5. Edit Realms.conf
Code:
```
vi realms.conf
```
Maps, GM Scripts, & DBCs
Extract your maps by placing ad.exe in you World of Warcraft directory and making a folder called maps! Then run ad.exe

Download the DBC files
http://www.wowmyst.com/DL/DBC.zip

Uploading
Open Explorer (My Computer)
Type in the address bar ftp://HOSTNAMEorIP
Click File-->Logon As
Enter Root and your pass

Go to the Ascent directory and make a directory called maps, another called DBC, and another called scripts

Upload all the files accordingly
**Note the scripts are found in the NCDB SVN you downloaded under Development

Making You Server Starter
Make a file called run.sh

Code:

cd /opt/ascent

Code:

touch run.sh

Edit it

Code:

vi run.sh

Enter the following:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
./bin/ascent --conf conf/ascent.conf --realmconf conf/realms.conf

Starting Your Server
First run your logonserver
Code:
```
cd /opt/ascent/bin/
```
Code:
```
./logonserver
```
Then start your world server
Code:
```
cd /opt/ascent
```
Code:
```
sh ./run.sh
```

Someties i have Segmentaion Fault after server runs few mins or hrs...

**Zason** · 10-12-07

Try this. Scroll down and read your OS, I use Ubuntu.

For Linux
The easiest way to get ascent is by running:

svn export http://217.149.194.150/svn/ascent/branches/2_4_stable/ /folder/for/source --username anonymous --password ""
Replacing /folder/for/source with something like /home/johnny/source

Note: In order to have ascent work under linux, you must use svn to download the source, DO NOT use TortiseSVN and then copy the files to your linux server, it will not work (you will get segmentation fault).

mv lib/ ../

and re-run run.sh

worked for me

I do have another question..

I got the 2_4_stable version and its running.. but what database should i use ?

because i'm getting a few errors on this one...

It is compatible with NCDB i presume so i just need the right version ....

**l2mitch** · 29-12-07

Having a bit of trouble with getting the SVN.

Code:

# svn co svn://www.emupedia.com/svn/ascent/trunk
svn: Can't connect to host 'www.emupedia.com': Connection refused

Fedora 7, following the instructions from this thread.

Edit: I found out that I should read more closely. :)

**l2mitch** · 29-12-07

More troubles, except at the config part.

Code:

checking for pthread_create in -lpthread... yes
checking for compress in -lz... yes
checking for ftime  in -lcompat... no
checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no
checking for mysql_init in -lmysql... no
configure: error: Missing mysql

However, I have Mysql running right now.
