If its a repack, it should be in the repack folder, if its MaNGOS, it should be in the ..\src\mangosd\mangosd.conf.in copy and paste file to release folder and rename to mangosd.conf

If you still can't find it then its an incomplete download!

about that, I'm having the same problem, although this is not the tutorial i followed, but please... I've been working on that for more than a day now, compiling problems, incomplete downloads, mySQL issues, Now I'm all done, just with this error:

Code:

Error in item_template table, probably sql file format was updated (there should be 144 fields in sql).

So, if i can have a moment of your time, bare with my... noobness, and tell me how i can find what MaNGOS version i have, how to get a compaitable database, btw, the server im making is gonna be a WotLK server.

Re: [Mangos] How to make a Mangos server

when you get a database from udb it should have written in the file name a 4 digit number. thjat is the mangos rev it is designed for and will work best with that version of mangos. that is how to get a compatible database.

ok so, in the UDB website its "UDB_0.10.4_Core_6766_SD2_689.rar
the first one is the mangos rev and the second is for SD2 right?

but in the mangos site, there is no one exactly as 6766? do i get the closest ? :)

Re: [Mangos] How to make a Mangos server

Hi There

I am new to the private server scenario and tried the guide to set up mangos for a normal lan setup.

Although a great guide I still managed not being able to even start realmd & mangosd executables.

I read through all the posts made and have some questions to assist helping me resolve what i may be missing. of course not mentioning feeling rather idiotic by not getting it "right"

programs installed : mySQL14.12 Dist 5.0.45
mangos: 7227_Mangos_886_SD2_303_308_308a
UDB: UDB_0.11.0_rev_367

the Mangos conf files of realmd and mangos was edited and renamed to *.conf
the individual databases were created and imported from the sql files. used the files from mangos here first.
I then took the UDB core database and updated mangos db with it.
realm id is referring to mangos and using localhost IP 127.0.0.1
i managed to obtain maps from my client.. wow 3.0.8 (9506) and the dbc files as well with a reference to the 4 files missing previously discussed.
Vmaps folder in client gave me a buildings dir with 6305 files and a vmaps dir 1200 files
although copying vmaps folder into root of mangos folder i ensured the config file is still tagged "0" trying to exclude possible error causes.
dbc files extracted and maps both copied into root of mangos folder both have their individual folders.

mangos release i noticed is now 7227.
checking the UDB database the update folder only cater up to 7109. its core is 7069. some of your posts mention that the 2 should be the same. on the udb forums i can only see that rev 367 is the latest.

when i tried running realmd and mangosd .exe files both gave me an error executing program. At this stage i cannot proceed further to log and test with client.

Would anyone be kind enough to indicate where i have gone wrong... Thx in advance.

I have multichecked that the database connections referred to in the config files are correct using un, pw created making SQL db's. using navicat to browse and query mysql tables and db's. names of db's also checked that they are correct. even tried changing the Ip to the wording "localhost".

OS: XPsp2
initialy has no webservice running. activated and installed MS IIS in case it was needed.

Re: [Mangos] How to make a Mangos server

in an answer to Cambyman's question:

[I]i try to extract the vmap using vmap extractor v2 and also put it in WoW Client folder....

but i have trouble on extracting it.... it has error message... "Can not opening file config file: SplitConfig.txt exit with errors"

i am wondering where the file is? cause the vmap zip only contain 4 files.[/I]

In the core release of 7227 i found the vmaps folder under tools folder.

I managed to extract all the files by simply copying the complete folder into my root folder of my client.

wow\vmaps

the i ran the batch file which in turned extracted not only the buildings but the vmaps as well..

I do not know the purpose of the buildings folder yet... and hope someone could enlighten me.. but it did extract the files needed without any hassles.

the process takes a while though.

you will end up 2 sub directories with doing it this way.

wow\vmaps\buildings
wow\vmaps\vmaps

Re: [Mangos] How to make a Mangos server

Think you could help me? I'm trying to host a 3.0.9 server using core 7276, but when I start up realmd using my external IP, it says that it cannot connect to the database, yet when I set the IP to 127.0.0.1, it works perfectly. What's the problem? I already forwarded all my ports and enabled pipe names or whatever. Can you help me?

Re: [Mangos] How to make a Mangos server

that sounds like a version incompatibility. make sure that your udb database is built for the same version as your mangos version.

hey guys, i havent been on ragezone or on private servers for a long time. Its nice to see that my guide has remained helpful and i thank you all for using it.

and instead of "@prefix@/share/mangos" make it just " " so that it is blank.

It should end up looking like this

Code:

# Data directory setting. # Important: DataDir needs to be quoted, as it is a string which may # contain space characters. DataDir = ""

http://www.freewebs.com/dagamerc13/m...angosconf1.jpg

This will enable it to find the maps and vmaps folder to use.

After that we now move on to configuring for the database. While still in mangos.conf find

Code:

LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;mangos;mangos;realmd" WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;mangos;mangos;mangos" CharacterDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;mangos;mangos;characters"

and change it to look like

Code:

LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;"your mysql name";"your mysql pass";realmd" WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;"your mysql name";"your mysql pass";mangos" CharacterDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;"your mysql name";"your mysql pass";characters"

http://www.freewebs.com/dagamerc13/m...angosconf2.jpg

now save and exit mangos.conf and open up realmd.conf

Ummmm. Where do I find these files? I extracted everything but can't find it. Maybe I missed downloading something or extracting a certain file. The main mangos file is extracted but I don't see it. Thanks in advance for this annoyance.

If you're compiling the server yourself it should come with the extractor, though here it is anyway, I use MySQL 5.1.45 community edition.

Re: Creating Mangos Server

Hey everyone,

For me, everything went along smoothly till i reached this point where i tried to run mangosd.exe and realmd.exe.

realmd.exe can run perfectly fine and connect to my database,
and it also continues running to show that other ip addresses are joining.

however mangosd.exe when it was run it said error and couldn't find ACE.dll so i went to manually download ACE.dll and put it in my mangos file.

then now when i run it, it says " the procedure entry point ??1ACE_Cleanup@@UAE@XZ could not be located in the dynamic link library ACE.dll."

any help? thanks!

Thanks!

They don't have Linux, MacOS or BSD builds, they don't have MaNGOSZero builds for anything, and they don't have databases suitable for use with MaNGOSZero.

So... they seem to have nothing that I need, it's all Post TBC or TLK rubbish.

From my point of view, the definition of a "repack" is that it's already in binary form, and doesn't require compiling from source... so, your guide to not using a repack is a repack in it's self. :?:

What guide do I need to find to tell me how to set up a good build environment for building and developing the source of MaNGOS, and preferably the MaNGOSZero variant?

Their Wikis all seem to be in such a state of flux their own guides don't work, are out of date or down while they re-write them, and I figured I'd come to RZ where I've been active with other MMO Server developments... but what this section considers "doing it your self" seems to be what I consider "taking someone else's repack" so I'm having no luck with my search terms, and no luck posting [help] topics. :(: Someone? Please?

Re: Creating Mangos Server

Hi guys

I'm having a few probs with the maps. I followed the guide but when i use the ad.exe file it stops at 45% with 4 area flags missing;

"Can't find area flag for areaid 2304"
"Can't find area flag for areaid 1536"
"Can't find area flag for areaid 462"
"Can't find area flag for areaid 1568"

Anyone know how to correct this or have a copy of the ad.exe that works?

Thanx
21-09-10
bobsobol

Re: Creating Mangos Server

Versions of ad.exe are specific to the MaNGOS build you are using. The version that comes with you MaNGOS build is the version you should use.

I've never had it fail, but I do know that if you use the data produced by a version that is different from the one that comes with your MaNGOS build, MaNGOS will not work the maps correctly. (with varying results)
