This guide is for complete beginners, im making this guide because this is how i learned to make a server in the past and its always worked for me, and when people ask me questions they can use this guide and ill know exactly what to help them fix, cause everyones server image is diffrent and i cant really explain everything from someone elses work.
recommend you have 4 gigs of ram or more, but you can use 2 if you really want to push it.
before we begin, download
Winscp We use this to add files to your server after we set it up. but dont install it yet.
first
download
Vbox
second

Ubuntu
make sure you download the 64bit server image, just click download afterwards and save the image "iso"

click finish
now it should pop up with a blank server list, go to new.
next
put a name for your server "can be anything doesnt matter"
change operating system to linux
change verison to ubuntu 64bit
next
now depending on how much ram you have try to divide it by half,
if you have 4 gigs use 2048 ram, if you have 2 use 1024
remember this isnt going to be a real server for everyone to play on, just you can play on it so it doesnt need alot of ram.
this is giving you the basic idea on how to build a pw server.

double click .. above .aptitude
go to etc, then apache2 double click apache2.conf
scroll all the way down
and at the very bottom add this line
Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
save and close.
one last thing for phpmyadmin, your apache2 wont work with phpmyadmin without this lovely mod
apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
if it asks to install type Y then continue
now
we are going to do something to prevent problems in the future
in winscp at the top go to options
then preferences then go to transfer now look for "upload options" set permissions, its unchecked, check it, in the text box below it, replace it with this rwsrwsr-t
click ok at the bottom to apply.
this will set permissions to 7775
now close the options.
go back to your linux machine and type
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
this restarts apache2
after doing this your phpmyadmin will work.
now go to your phpmyadmin page
http://yourip/phpmyadmin/
log into your phpmyadmin using root for the username
and password for your password.
go to import at the top
now scroll down to the bottom of this post and download pwdb.sql
i got this sql file from Das1007's server files so i dont know the source of the files so ill just thank das for it.
after downloading the file add it to your desktop
click browse in your phpmyadmin's import page and select pwdb.sql
then click go on the right side of the page.
now you have a pw database on the left of your screen.
you do not need to touch these.

now we are ready to add some files to your linux machine
go to winscp go all the way back til you see /<root> above your servers files you will see
bin
boot
dev
etc
and so on
add the files inside of etc to your
linux servers etc folder
when finished
add lib folder's files to your linux servers lib32 folder
when finished add the folder PWServer to your linux machine, dont put it in any folders in the linux machine just add it in.
after its finished
add the usr folders files to your linux machines usr folder
now we are almost done adding files.
after adding that we will add pwadmin go to ronnies pwadmin page
go to
pwadmin - Release: pwAdmin v1.8 download pwadmin,and the jetty script, you put the jetty script in the /root folder and put jetty-7.2.0 in your pwserver directory
go into jetty-7.2.0
then go into webapps
then go into pwadmin
then go into WEB-INF
open .pwconf.conf file in wordpad and change all the ip's to your servers ip
then open .pwadminconf.jsp with wordpad and change the database information to yours "db = database"
so host = ip
port keep the same
user is your root username
password is your password
database is pw
now at the top of this file you will see
String iweb_password = "abunch of numbers mixed together";
make sure it says
string iweb_password = "63a9f0ea7bb98050796b649e85481845"
your password is root in pwadmin.
now your done
when you want to start
pwadmin type ./jetty start
then go to
http://IP:8080
then go to control server, and start it
your server is now started.
also dont use this guide to make a server public as this is only meant for private use, this guide has no security in it so be smart and understand what your doing before you attempt to make one public.

Reserved for client guide.
Also if you already have the client make sure to check
Glinkd go to the first login server and change the line below the ip that says
10301 to 10306 save restart and then log in.
heres the client files
NOTICE
NOTICE
NOTICE
NOTICE
all 4 parts to the client enjoy
what you need to do is unrar it, go into element/data/server and take the elements.data, tasks.data and gshop.data and add it to the servers pwserver/gamed/config folder and replace it, restart server then go into the clients userdata/server/ serverlist.txt file and change it to your servers ip, save then load the client and connect, that is all enjoy.
ALSO you need to go into /pwserver/glinkd/gamesys.conf and change all 10301 to 10306 then save. without modifying this you will recieve the "server maintainance"
