NCDB - SVN [Only DB you will EVER need]

[JulianX]

Ok I know NCDB Milestone 0.1 seems to have a few MAJOR problems so I will post the SVN source that has Daily updates with over 10 fixes a day.

Next-Chapter Subversion Information
In-case you want to keep your database up-to-date, with the newest revision, you can simply checkout our last sources from here:
svn://emupedia.com/svn/ncdb
To perform the checkout, You'll need a SVN Client, I will recommend RapidSVN:

• RapidSVN - rapidsvn.tigris.org

Part 1 - Checkout Guide
A. To perform the checkout, You'll need a SVN Client, I recommended RapidSVN, but we will use RapidSVN Because I'm using it ^_^.
B. After we downloaded & installed our SVN client, Let's open the program by clicking on his shortcut, we would see something like that:
1. Simply Click CTRL+O, or click through the menu Repository --> Checkout...Now You'll have to fill in the text boxes.
2. In URL Type:
svn://emupedia.com/svn/ncdb
3. In Destination Directory Type:
/your/path/to/ncdb/
ex. /Ascent1132/NCDB/
4. Then click OK, and It'll start to checkout.

Part 2 - Import
After we finished to checkout, and we have all the files, we will just need to run the import file, to have a fully working database.
Before we will start import everything you'll need to define database settings for the imports.

1. Open the folder "Releases".
Next Just look for a file named "Character" and Execute it your Character Database you made.
2. Open the file "Import_World.bat" with TEXT EDITOR(notepad) this file is located in the "Development" Folder.
Search for:

set user=root
set pass=
set db=ascent_world
set server=localhost

set user - write login user for your database.
set pass - write the login-password for your database.
set db - write the WORLD Database name.
ser server - insert your server location(localhost, IP, such).

A. run the file "character"ONLY IF IT'S YOUR FIRST TIME.

If you run this on your existing server all your accounts and their character will be removed!

B. run the file "Import_World.bat"(This one can be safely used).
Run this batch file every time you do a new checkout.

Cheers and Good luck,
Next-Chapter Project!

Would you say this is better than your's?

[JulianX]

This is what I use but This has Updates Daily.

[Mesmoras]

Definitely using it lol

[Ragnaros]

Yea where is char_db.bat or world_db.bat?

[JulianX]

It is in Development folder they change the SVN set-up once and a while.

[Mesmoras]

Before executing the svn thing, do I have to delete the documents folder in the ncdb milestone folder? Because when I try to execute it, a message comes up saying, "Error while performing action: Failed to add directory 'C:Users\Desktop\NCDB - Milestone 1.0\Documents': object of the same name already exists."

[Mesmoras]

Any word of advice Julian?

And also I can't find the char.bat file either, its not in the developement folder as you said

[JulianX]

char.bat is no longer included, they just have a Charactewr DB SQL file named "character" now in w.e folder.

[Mesmoras]

Ahh, lol it kind of sucks for you that it updates daily. You have to update this guide w/ it to prevent the hundreds of questions that will eventually be flooding this thread lol >.< Oh and when you say this updates daily, do you mean that the folders update w/o me knowing? And if it does happen to update to a knew rev, will it automatically update my DB in SQLyog?

Any suggestions?

[JulianX]

There I fixed it for you guys.

[Mesmoras]

Now when you check out the file w/ the svn thing, do you check it out in the milestone folder or what? still kinda stuck =\

[JulianX]

Everytime you do a checkout you should del your old files in that folder.

[Mesmoras]

oh... wait so in order for me to keep it up to date i need to do the svn thing every day? so does that mean i have to constantly do these steps to my db?
