Alright, I just tried out this repack (but with a diferent guide). Its got loads of bugs that will take loads of time and effort to remove, not trying to discourage anyone however. Alrighty!
as for the error message you are getting moondar, check to make sure you have Net Framepack 3.5 installed on you computer. I ran into the same problem and after I installed THE CORRECT VERSION of it, the logonserver and Arcemu-world worked fine. As for the "server is powered by WhyDB!" just open up Navicat, or whatever SQL client you are using, look in the world table and find the table reading "worldmessage," or something like that, i forget the exact name. It should be in the last 5 or 6 tables and the table definately begins with "world." Next, just delete the entry and the message will dissapear. As for gettin to northrend, I tackled it by making a portal to map 571 (the northrend map extracted with AD). I went into navicat, or of course, any other SQL client, and I opened up the world database and the "worldmaps" table, i then created a new entry and made the first two columns 571 the rest 0 until repopentry which was also 571 then the rest default until the flags which i set to one and the rest i left at the default. Next I modified a portal in the "tele_coords" table and set the portal to 33(portal to westfall was the one i modified),0,0,571,0 and then I went to the game object names, and created the portal and then spawned it into the game. I found myself at a huge empty Northrend! Nothing spawned at all.
List of bugs I found on this repack:
1. Gryphs and boats do not work
2. getting to 80 is bugged, if not impossible (still have to play around with that)
3. No waypoints are added, so you will have to add them manually
4. reseting instances do not work
5. NPCs holding shields will hold checked boxes instead (this is easily fixable but will take lots of time)
6. Northrend isnt spawned (easily fixable but agiain, will take lots of time)
7. very few quests are added to NPCs (takes loads of time to fix)
8. a couple more that I may have left out, I am going to try a couple more repacks but... If none of them are good im switching to MaNgOs or maybe back to 2.4.3!
good luck guys and PM me if you need any help!

But there is a problem for me. I can't get any quests from NPCs. I tried to find answer in the forum but there are too much topics also I can't find with search option. Thanks in advance.
