[GUIDE] Run a MaNGOS 2.4.3 server in 3 steps with the noobpack by 711

[PuseN]

server up and running.. nice work
buut is there any command for flying?

[711]

pusen, please read the FAQ.

tj, I'm not sure what's causing that, are you getting any errors in the mangosd window?

pujanke, sorry, but I don't know what else to tell you. Perhaps you're not on an administrator account, and don't have sufficient privileges, or perhaps you've got some other program, perhaps malware interfering with the mysql server. My only recommendation at this point is try on another computer and make the server public.

Figured out that i had changed the MySQL entry under realmlist database to my external IP, and it stopped working externally and internally, even on the server.

Once i changed it back to 127.0.0.1 it worked on the server, but not on the LAN or externally.

How would I fix this?

here is my situation. I can connect and play no problem. I can get another person to log into the game and see the server and it's status as up. however when they try to connect it loops back to the server selection screen. Any help would be appreciated.

Marblez, go to Google and type in "SQLyog". The first pick that comes up should be the download site. MAKE SURE you download the Community version.

I can't seem to find a "maps" folder in the MANGOS folder. I had tried to make a 2.4.3 ascent server, but it didn't work so I tried this out. Could it be that had something to do with it?

Ok i have followed the guide, and tryed to make it public so me and my brothers plus some freinds can have some fun =D

But for some reason none of us can connect to the server.
I do not have static IP, so i have made one of the free DNS hostnames (No-IP)
But when i use that and have binded it to my own external IP it cant connect.
The "RealmD" window allso say "Unable to connect to database"

Can someone help me plz...

If the RealmD is saying unable to connect to database check your .conf files to make sure the correct information is in there for your mysql password and also make sure your mysql is running.

Not sure why TBC would be greyed out but generally the problem your having has to do with the character database. When you set up your server make sure to upload the different SQL files that came with the pack into your MySQL database. You should have multiple sql files that came in the pack i believe by the names of, Mangos.sql(which is the database),realmd.sql(login server database),characters.sql(character database), and possibly a couple more but those are the main ones. All you do is open sqlyog or navicat whichever you use to manage your mysql and then create 3 databases one called mangos, one called realmd, and one called characters. Then you take those 3 .sql files and sql update each one to their proper database then restart your server and try it out.

Im not a pro but this should work and im glad to help. Cya

Inside of the repack find a file called ad.exe then you go into your World of Warcraft folder and you make the folder called maps yourself. Once you've got that blank folder called maps in there put the ad.exe file inside the folder also. Double click to run ad.exe and then it will begin to extract the maps and put them into the maps folder for you as well as make a folder for dbc's which after the ad.exe extractor is done take both filled folders (maps,dbc's) and stick them back into your repack folder where your .conf files are.

Everything looks ok... Hmm gonna try again and se if i can make it work.

Oh yea i am using a shared connection, and have no control over the router. Could that have anything to do with it?
