Seting up a Lan or Wan WOW server with [Kobold V3 Standalone Server]

[a999999999]

I have been reading the thread of "Kobold V3 Standalone Server" and tried to build a wow server for me and my friends to have fun. I have to admit there are enough information to get this done, but most of them are not precise and need ppl to think/figure out.

So here I'd like to share what I have done to make my server running.

First, to build a WAN server, you have to have a computer directly connected to internet, not behind router, because I don't know the ports. Maybe I will figure it out later by using port forwarding, but I haven't done it yet.

So this instruction is for a Lan server or a Wan server if you server is connected directly to internet.

1)
Find the Repack.rar and maps.rar from the orignal thread [Kobold V3 Standalone Server].
http://forum.ragezone.com/world-warc...er-211978.html
2)
Unrar repack.rar, maps.rar
3)
Copy maps directory to WS directory in unziped repack.
4)
Find out the ip address of the computer you want to build ur wowserver on.
In winxp, use command "ipconfig"
5)
Edit repack\LS\conf\login_server.conf
Find the line LoginServerListenIp = 127.0.0.1, change it to
LoginServerListenIp = Your_Server_IP
6)
Edit repack\RS\realm_server.conf
Find the line RealmServerListenIp = 127.0.0.1, change it to
RealmServerListenIp = Your_Server_IP
7)
Edit repack\WS\conf\world_server.conf
Find the line WorldServerListenIp = 127.0.0.1, change it to
WorldServerListenIp = Your_Server_IP
8)
run repack\Launcher (Run Me).bat
9)
enter 1 to run "1. Start Sql". -> a new IE/firefox windows will come up.
10)
In the IE/firefox, go to the linek "Go to PHPMySQLAdmin"
11)
In the left frame, Datebase, please select a database, -> select Kobold(75)
12)
In the left frame, find "worldserver_list", click it, data structure will appear in the right frame.
13)
In the right frame, click "browse", 1 record shows up at the bottom of this frame.
Click that "edit" icon and modify IP's value to Your_Server_IP, save.
14)
In the left frame, find "realm_list", click it, data structure will appear in the right frame.
15)
In the right frame, click "browse", 1 record shows up at the bottom of this frame.
Click that "edit" icon and modify Address's value to Your_Server_IP, save.
16)
run repack\Launcher (Run Me).bat
run 3,4,5 in order one by one.

Boy, 3 Start world server takes me 30 mins to load.
17)
done.

Finally, GREAT JOB to all of u guys.

Hi guys, i really need some help, when i start "Launcher (Run Me)" and press 1 and then enter, it shows the site and i press Go to PHPMySQLAdmin . then it says Access denied . "
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in config.inc.php and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server."
" #1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)"


I've tried alot of things, but it still says the same.
it would be great if anyone could help me .

Did you modify anything in the repack? Try to unzip repack.rar and run the clean copy, you should be able to go to PHYMySQLAdmin and check all those tables.
Also do you have mysql installed on your computer? If true, stop it and then try.

Those are my guesses, I am not good at these sql stuffs. But hey, even a newbie as I am, I can run it really well. You can do it 2.

Yeah i got a clean copy . i got SQL installed. shall i try to uninstall it ? . ill try it . thanks anyway .
Did u make any scp's or anything elso on the server? if yes, can u patch it to me ? - thanks

Hi guys i got a new problem .

I didnt see anything about making a WAN server, so my friends from other localation in other towns can join my server.
I've tried to chance the ip, where i had my LAN ip before to my internet ip. but it didnt work, i couldnt even connect by my self. anyone can make a guide ? or know where i can find one, because im not sure if i've seen all topics though.

-Thanks

My guess is you have a router yes? Keep the IP as YOUR lan IP. Then forward the port on the router to YOUR lan IP.

But I am not at your house so what would I know right :P


edit: lol, I have posted 7 times in 3 years.. wow

First, to build a WAN server, you have to have a computer directly connected to internet, not behind router, because I don't know the ports. Maybe I will figure it out later by using port forwarding, but I haven't done it yet.

i forwarded: 3306
80
3724 - 3725
4200

[aceindy]

Stop forwarding 3306 and 4200 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

If anyone pings your server direct on 4200 it will crash WS !!!
And why you want to give access to MySQL?

Seems you really know what you are doing aye?
