Troubles getting server running!

[Fizzelz]

I have been having so much trouble trying to work on my server. It has been hours and hours on end for the past week and I just can't seem to find a decent server. I have a repack from ApexDev and I got it working offline (this didn't seem to take long, at all. was very impressed). I ended up trying to open a file with notepad what wasn't meant to be opened with notepad and it replaced all those files so I had to do a system restore. After this restore, I was unable to get on my server, period. Whenever I would try to log in, I would get stuck on the connecting screen. I don't know how to fix this problem as I have changed numberous things to resolve this problem. I decided I was going to just redownload the same repack and I ended up getting an error opening mySQL but Authserver and Authworld ran just fine so I figured the error wasn't important but whenever I tried logging in, it said I must log in to a battle.net account. Well, RIP that repack. I would like a repack that is updated and extremely reliable, something simple would be nice. I am quite new to this but I got the basics after working on it for so much the past weeks. If anyone could like me to a nice repack (anything from 3.3.5 - 5.4. along with a tutorial, you'd be a big help. If someone could connect to me via Teamviewer and help me with this task, it would be a BLESSING. I thank anyone and everyone for the help, in advance.

UPDATE: I've found a 3.3.5 repack that I got to work and now I just need help getting it online so my friends and I can mess around together.

Alright the reason that you were unable to connect to your server was because for emulators above 3.3.5 require a modified client to bypass blizzards login thing you can find the client online I would link you the correct version but I'm unsure which version you're running (Google it) Also there's very little point in downloading emulator past 3.3.5 due to the massive bugs none of the emulators are stable the most stable emulator is 3.3.5.

Now to get it online depends on what emulator you're using personally I'd use Trinity everything is well scripted and runs properly and making it online is very simple compared to others.. I'll make you my own guide with my current emulator which has been already tested and works perfectly every raid (Except Ulduar) runs flawlessly

1. Google (Jeuties Blizzlike Repack 3.3.5) and install all necessary files
2. Once installed run the Application "Jeuties Repack Control" and attach the necessary files (Readme is in the folder)
3. Once you've attached MySql, Worldserver, Authserver run "Mysql"
4. Then install HeidiSQL (Database Editor)
5. Once installed login using the default password Ascent
6. Click on the database "Auth" then click the Realmlist and select data on the top
7. Replace address "127.0.0.1" with your server IP address that you want to host with

Once complete the server should be able to run with that ip but now if you're using none Hamachi you will probably have to portforward which means you need access to your router
you need to add the port (8085) once completed you can use the worldserver to create accounts or use the database to manually add accounts good luck!

I can't believe Hamachi still exists lol.
