    Post Error when attempting to start Mangos 2.0.12 pack

    I have a few problems hopefully someone can help me with (This being about 12 hours since I started tweaking with the mangos for 2.0.12).

    The problem I am having is that as soon as I click on either realmd.exe or mangosd.exe they flash on the screen and nothing happens. I checked all the information in the .conf files and everything else possible and found no errors. I didnt want to post without some type of error line that I could give because there are many problems that Im sure could all cause this same problem. Long story short I spammed print screen when the window flashed up and found the error.

    "DOTCONF++: failed to open file 'C:\privateBC\realmd.conf' : No such file or directory

    Could not find configuration file realmd.conf"

    It is in the directory that it says it isn't, if there is anything I am overlooking please let me know. I have tried everything and doubled check multiple times(12 hours now). Any insight to what may be causing this problem would be extremely helpful.

    I also get the same error message for the mangosd.exe.
    Im wondering if this problem may be because the files are showing up as ".bak" files, the names are mangosd.conf and realmd.conf but they still show up as .bak files...

    I also notice there was a previous post for this same problem but with no responses, any help would be greatly appriciated.

    try checking the server.txt (or what ever) the first one he loads are the maps so if so see it for 1 sec or less you dont have or dont have the right maps...
    had that problem to i used other maps... they where outdated

    The only thing is the error says absolutely nothing about maps, so I doubt thats the problem. I may try downloading another map db though and see if it makes a difference.

    If they are showing up like this
    realmd.conf.bak
    rename them to just realmd.conf etc
