Hey all,
I am extremely new to Emulating WoW. I picked up doing it to have a simple server for my family and friends to play on. I have everything set up. LAN play is perfect, no issues and no errors etc. The Apache web server works correctly outside of the lan. However, even though a public IP can access the Apache web server and successfully create an account, can get a success logging in, only to get stuck on the realm selection loop. I have a few other servers that work fine on other VMs (ARK, 7DTD FTP and WEB etc) and know how to port forward. I have my own domain that people have no issue reaching. However I am at a loss. Am I missing something? Here is what I have done.
In the SQL server I set realmd>realmlist (address=public IP, local address=local lan IP, port=8085) I have also tried domain name and 8050 etc
Set Host file to have local IP, public IP, and gateway IP
Set port forwarding to 81 (port:80 is blocked by ISP), 3724, 8085, and 3306 all set to forward to server machines local IP.
Set realmlist.wtf correctly to show my domain on all PC LAN and otherwise.
Again, all PCs on LAN can connect and play 100% no problem. Total of 4 other than server machine. Outside of the LAN, a public PC can access the website to create an account, login to account but cannot connect to the realm.
Let me know what info or screenshots you may need. Would really love to be able to open this up to my friends!
