[MaNGOS] Complications setting up my server for live hosting (No hamachi)

[1337w33d]

Hello, and thank you for reviewing my thread



I Followed http://www.mmowned.com/forums/mangos...os-server.html and Board Message exactly as he said but my server still does not go live for gameplay. In my mangosd.conf/realmd.conf I bind the IP of my server to "matrocitywotlk.ath.cx" that I set up with dynDNS, and then run my mangosd.exe and realmd.exe and I get the error "mangos cannot bind to matrocitywotlk.ath.cx". Although, I did get it working once, yet it only allowed LAN connections to my router in.

~~BUT~~
My Website Works?
MatrocityWotLK Server or Matrocity WoWs WotLK Server
Why does it work? But I can't connect anyone to my sever outside of my lan?

I will now post screens/conf to help anyone to understand and help me fix this problem. +Rep to the person that helps me get through this!

Mangosd.conf Screen



Realmd.conf Screen



HOSTS File Screen



USED TO SAY:

127.0.0.1            localhost
192.168.1.66      matrocitywotlk.ath.cx
192.168.1.66      matrocitywotlk.no-ip.info     (Tried that and failed)
my wan ip           matrocitywotlk.ath.cx
my wan ip           matrocitywotlk.no-ip.info     (All of this failed)

I tried each paired and seporate too. I dont know what more I can do.

I've forwarded all my ports, etc... Using Verizon DSL... router is...
ActionTech GT704WG

I even tried DMZ hosting when I got desperate, what the hell am I doing wrong?

192.168.1.1 (Router config) Port Open screen



Mangosd.exe and Realmd.exe error screen



I bet this is a small/stupid mistake... but I just dont see it...

Please tell me if I need to post more information and I will! I may not be the greatest at this, but I'm not a retard, so please be serious.

First off, what is your Internet Service Provider?

[1337w33d]

Verizon
(filler)

[Dythzer]

BindIp should always be "0.0.0.0" so try that.

You can also read this guide:
Board Message

[1337w33d]

Okay, I'll check it out. Thank you.

EDIT: I've followed this guide too, didn't work for me. Yes, I followed it 100% accurately.

Okay, I have problems getting public too. Are you hooked up to the Modem or Router. Try hooking up to the router and make SURE there are firewall exceptions for all those ports.

1337w33d can you upload your config files to like megaupload and give link in here ? if do ill try changing the config files and then you can back up your and try ones i have tryed and see if it works because think i know what you down wrong but i cant be bothered realy to say what and it save the problem of if do little thing wrong ect :P

[1337w33d]

Mangosd.conf
Realmd.conf
I'm connected to my router, it is a modem/router combo, direct wire connection.. firewall is off, ports are forwarded.

[welshman321]

try LINK

[1337w33d]

Hmm, I think it worked.. need someone to confirm that has a Client build 8634 BETA.. the realmlist is

 set realmlist matrocitywotlk.ath.cx

I hope this works, but then again, I dont... because I feel stupid :P I completely looked past this... I tried this method, but I didnt configure my databases correctly to allow it... Well, rep to you if it works welshman321

EDIT: Sorry if anyone tried to connect over the last 10 hours of this post, while I was out, there was a power outage, and my server was shut down by that. It is up now, if anyone would like to confirm connectivity

[1337w33d]

Yeah, it's not working. No one but me can connect...

Database: localhost;3306;root;******;realmd
MySQL client library: 5.0.56
MySQL server ver: 5.0.41-community-nt
Added realm "MatrocityWotLK Server".
MaNGOS realmd can not bind to **.**.***.***:3306

I've tried everything, when I had my server up with hamachi i could bind the IP to my hamachi IP but I can't with my router IP. WHY not? The world can't bind either
WORLD: World initialized
MaNGOS cannot bind to **.**.***.***:8129

(Just to clear things up I starred out my DB pass and my IP address, it's not really stars)

[waymirec]

You can only bind applications to an IP that resides locally on your computer. You can't bind an application running on your computer to an IP that resides on your router.

[Dythzer]

Just use 0.0.0.0 as bindIP. I don't see the point of changing it.

[Power of Illuminati]

BindIP is like the realm is I have understood the mangos configs right.
