Pressing "Test Connection" doesn't work; it says: 2003 - Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)
I haven't really tried anything... Seeing as I have no idea what I'm doing. Can anyone help me?
Wait... I figured out how to start MySQL. NVM.

[xxMalic3xx]

Well. I've done everything correct. (Or so I think.) Except the router part although I have a router. I couldn't really figure out how to do that. Then I tried the hamachi part... And in the end I just couldn't connect.
I'm not sure what I did wrong or where.

Any suggestions or help?

[jeffrob]

cant get the non hamachi to work its all set like yours but its not working

[Sounddead]

Don't advertise on my fricken guide thread. Christ. And Malic, I'll look into it. I need to sleep right now, so I'll find you an answer tomorrow.

Hey there Sounddead, great guide. Maybe you can help me with something? When I try to connect it looks like its connecting fine but it gets stuck at 'connected'. I found a way around this by logging out and back in 4-5 more times before it finally lets me in. Any idea why this could be happening?

[Sounddead]

Just a localhost realmloop. It happens to almost everyone hosting their server off their home computer. It won't effect your players.

Hi. I am having alot of trouble getting past the map extraction step of making my own server. I just went though 38 pages of posts, and nothing seemed to help. I have tried several different programs, mangos, accent, arcemu, etc. All on 7 different computers with a running copy of wow, so I know there isn't a file missing. when I use the Ad.exe program used to extract the maps it gets to 41% and crashes on every repack, on every computer, always at 41%. Am I the only one having this problem? Or am I missing one very important step here? Also yes, I made the "maps" folder in which to place the extracted maps. Any advise would be much appreciated

[Sounddead]

What patch are you running on? + Have you compiled your own map extractor any of the times?

No offence the repack is bad. Most of the commands dont work. Its all set to basic witch I like but you cant edit it so its not that good you cant morph you cant add items. Its hard to work in this repack.

[Sounddead]

Wth are you talking about. You can do all of that... Plus, its not my repack, so there isn't any offense taken. Although, you can still do all of which you stated you can't.
