So i'm planning to buy a vps and website from this web hosting https://xhosts.uk. But till now I still cant find a proper tutorial on how to upload (mucore 1.0.8 using xampp 5.4) from the web. Do I just need to drag and drop my htdocs files located in xampp folder?
Thanks I really need your help and suggestions.
EDIT: Does VPS has built in webhost? Because im confused. I keep seeing from the forum replies "host website and server on same pc "

For VPS Here You Go.
You obv didn't search i posted this like 15 times. I'm currently using my friend VPS hosting and its actually really good i recommend it a lot. He uses VMware not KVM I'm currently using a dedicated server and im really impressed so far: https://lghost.co.uk/ go there. they come with good anti ddos and good specs.
But here are the other ones.
These are good. But it depends on your budget there is many sites that i recommend for you depending on your budget. If your going cheap use VPS if you have a high budget use dedicated servers. I have a few sites you can use. provided by many members over the last few months. Since i only use the first 3 i really recommend those [OVH] [GreenCloud] [PhotonVPS] are good in my opinion. But those are the only one i used out of that list.

Also some extra information make sure you get something with anti ddos protection if you decide to get greencloud vps get seo tools 1 or better or get high ram vps they come with anti ddos.
If i remember correctly ovh and photonvps no matter what vps you buy comes with anti ddos.
Make sure you get Windows OS as well. With at least around 2-6 GB ram. Depending on what season you running.
Have Fun,
Simply install ftp client on your computer and enable ftp server on your vps, or just simply upload your files on some uploading site and download it inside your VPS that's very simple.
thank you @DevScript and @DragonSeth that was really useful!!
I've already ordered a vps here https://lghost.co.uk I ordered cpu ultra windows vps cpu optimized. heres the specs below. And can someone please tell me if its enough? 30-50 players. Season 6 Episode 3.
4 x 3.1 GHz+ (Turbo 3.80 GHz)
200 GB HDD Soft RAID
4 GB DDR3 RAM
1 Gbps Port Speed
Unlimited Bandwith
99.9% Uptime SLA
Plenty
Its been answered very long time ago I dont think if its way back 2007.The connection of the player didn't count on your server specification it count on your net speed (UPLOAD SPEED) of your hosts.Quote:

Anyways, can someone please help me setup a vps? like what are the drivers needed to be installed? Do I need to use Windows Update?
Thanks.
You doesn't have to install any drivers and dont use Windows Update, Just use it when the host provider sent you your vps details.Just setup your server directly at first you may need browser like google chrome or firefox its up with you then download/install sql server.Quote:

@Yes that's what first I installed chrome and change some config in the Internet Options. But anyways I got it working now and I can play ingame. I also installed microsoft framework,odbc driver, microsoft visual C. Now I only need to setup the webhost.
You can now follow what dragonseth response here in your thread.
Guys i need your help. Im getting this error while installing MUCore, Connection with MuOnline Database Failed - Fix this.
Here is what I did in SQL Server Configuration Manager
Shared Memory TCP / IP, Named Pipes and VIA are enabled. All Port is 1433 (Port opened). Included also in firewall. Enabled YES, Active Yes to all IP. I can login my VPS ip in SQL Server Management Studio with my username: sa and password: thisismypassword. I also restarted SQL services. But still no luck. What am I missing?
here below my config.
$core['db_host'] = "5.39.26.84";
$core['db_name'] = "MuOnline";
$core['db_user']= "sa";
$core['db_password'] = "thisismypassword";
PS: Im using SQL Server 2008R2
$core['db_host'] = "5.39.26.84";Quote:

And check your connection either ODBC or MSSQL
im using a remote access. I need the vps IP.
My current problem now is that I can login my sql database login to MuMaker but I cant on MuCore it says "Connection with MuOnline Database. Failed - Fix this.
Warning: mssql_connect(): Unable to connect to server: 5.39.26.84 in /home/yahhyy/public_html/engine/adodb/drivers/adodb-mssql.inc.php on line 555
5.39.26.84: Connection error to server '5.39.26.84' with user 'sa'
Failed - Fix this
You do not need a remote IP you don't even haft to have a IP. In the db host put your PC/ SQL express name. And change odbc to MSSQL and use xampp 1.7.7 if your using ex700 above and use xampp 1.7.1 for season 6 and below . have fun
@DragonSeth Yes its using MMSQL, im currently using the lghost that u recommended me. And im currently using their engine not XAMPP "https://lghost.co.uk/2016/09/04/not-use-xampp-production-websites/"
I've changed the dh host and it says
Warning: mssql_connect(): Unable to connect to server: WIN-6QKDHF2CD4V in /home/yahhyy/public_html/engine/adodb/drivers/adodb-mssql.inc.php on line 555
WIN-6QKDHF2CD4V: Connection error to server 'WIN-6QKDHF2CD4V' with user 'sa'
Failed - Fix this
Maybe the problem is the php version? since my xampp localhost is using php5.4 and the webhost that im using is using 5.6?
ur webhost check ur control panel and find MSSQL extension and enable it so it can connect to your SQL IP:1433
also check in php folder if u have in php.ini if mssql extension is enabled?
Hi @KarLi I got it working now. I was using the versoin php 5.6 (by default cpanel) so I asked the support to change my php to 5.4 now its working I can use the ip of my vps to connect to MuCore and I installed the necessary extensions.
