Creating Mangos Server

ey all... i've just created a server whit this tutorial! Great tutorial by the way! thx!

anyway,, i have a problem getting connected to my server.. iam still trying to fix a few errors which i found during the test of my server..

but i cant connect to it, iam able to see my Realm.. (in WoW itselfe) iam also able to double click it and let it TRY to connect to my character select screen.. but it wont connect.. it just keep saying: Connecting

i can click cancel and try it again, but it wont go inside.. Does anybody have a suggestion for me? so i CAN go inside?

Gr.

if its on your computer try changing the database realmlist to 127.0.0.1 just for a test.
that is generally an issue with something along the lines of that.
of course if you want others to connect you'll need to put in your external ip to it but that shouldnt be much of an issue.

btw thanks for the compliment :jump1:

Anyone know how to get past the VMaps issue ?

This is the error I am getting....

Realm running as realm ID 1
Using Mangos default database.
Using DataDir ./
WORLD: VMap support included. LineOfSight:0, getHeight:0
WORLD: VMap data directory is: ./vmaps
WORLD: VMap config keys are: vmap.enableLOS, vmap.enableHeight, vmap.ignoreMapId
s, vmap.ignoreSpellIds
Check existing of map file './maps/0004331.map': not exist!
Correct *.map files not found in path './maps' or *.vmap/*vmdir files in './vmap
s'. Please place *.map/*.vmap/*.vmdir files in appropriate directories or correc
t the DataDir value in the mangosd.conf file.

If you're not using the vmaps then, the settings should be off.

Code:

---


vmap.enableLOS = 0
vmap.enableHeight = 0
# Map id that will be ignored by VMap
# List of ids with delimiter ','
# If more then one id is defined and spaces are included, the string has to be enclosed by "
#vmap.ignoreMapIds = "369,0,1,530"
#DeeprunTram ist not included in the maps
vmap.ignoreMapIds = "369"
# These spells are ignored for LoS calculation
# List of ids with delimiter ','
vmap.ignoreSpellIds = "7720,5302"

If you are using the Vmaps then you maybe having the wrong vmap dir' config'ed wrong or, missing.

I had the same problem but i figured out what was wrong when it saind the map 0004331 was outdated or incompatible, I tried using ascent before so instead of using the ad program for mangos i copied the map folder from ascent. The problem is that the maps are labeled differently so mangos does not recognize it.

I have a VERY SMALL PROBLEM! Everything seems to work...but when i press MANGOS.exe to load it. I get this at the end.

"Character Database not specified in configuration file"

vmap_extract link doesn't work, apparently the site is down; keep getting 403 errors. Google has failed me anyone know where else to get it?

when I try to do the 341 corepatch for characters.sql I get an error "characters.character does not exist" it ain't matter what changes I make i the corepatch sql the error remains the same...pls tell me what I have to do...I'm on clean install at 0.9.2 UDB

Right click the SQL file and open with notepad. Find the area where it has the characters.character part and post it all. I might be able to give you a sql fix.

Might ad what you are using for SQL editing.

If it's SQLyog:

Open the login(OR New Connection) part of the SQLyog

in the Database(s) section have this in there.

mangosd;relamd;characters

That will make the characters DB if it's not present. connect. After that. is beyond me for SQLyog. I don't use it much. only to import large SQL files.

-- 5258
ALTER TABLE `characters` ADD KEY `idx_name` (`name`);
-- 5286
ALTER TABLE `character_pet`
DROP `nextlvlexp`;

this is what's in the sql file and yes I'm using SQLyog but trial version..I doubt the trial versin is a problem for to not working

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `characters`

Better yet. where did you get that SQL file so I can take a look at it.

If it's not to big post it. other wise link will do.

Hi everyone, I have a small problem.
I started a mangos server on linux, everything works fine, I can connect to the server & the other can too. The server works, everyone can connect, I see the realm online ingame, but on the website it appears offline... I tried with mangosweb & spora, they both show my server offline.
I need to know what to do in order to fix this... so any help is greatly appreciated.

Hello,

I've managed to set up everything and everything runs smooth except for one wrinkle in the plan. I'm not able to use UBC SQL data because I'm missing fields from my Item template data. I should have 141 entries and apparently I do not have it. However,when I load in the one that mangos have by default, the game runs fine. it's just that I cannot use UBC in order to take advantage of gears, npc, and etc. It would be helpful if you can tell me why. I'm running a 4874 Core.

ubc? do you mean udb. and upgrade your core. the newest udb supports 5242.

btw thank you Quakes for helping people while i wasnt here. it helps a lot =)

and xsite. i've never set up mangos in linux. (even though i love linux) and i've never used anything past a basic spora for a website.
