[ArcEmu] Latest WhyDb problem

[BooDeHunter]

Hello all, i hope sumone will take the time to answer my question seriously.

i have gotten the latest Arcemu core compiled it and got no errors, i have the latest revision of WhyDB. the logon server starts fine but when i start the world server it loads fine till right after it says ObjectMgr: 1821 vendors loaded. then it just crashes with no errors showing. I am very new to actual server maint as far as getting a stable server up and running i can supply what ever extra info you may need to help and any serious help will be appreciated...Thank you.

When you got the ArcEmu source, did you apply all the updates etc from the sql folder?

[BooDeHunter]

No Sir i didnt..the guide i was using didnt tell me i had to ... where would i update the sql files to and what is the file name in which i would find them?....or maybe you have a better guide that i could use to save your self sum typing lol

Thank you Kiev....i really appreciate it man

You would have to execute them into your database. , you can use a program like Navicat for this. There are quite a few but i beleive there is a tool in there to use to apply them all.

Ill step you threw this, download Navicat, and remember the info you put in for MySQL you use it for navicat, then make 3 new databases,
(if you didn't already)

World
Logon
Character

now go to your world database and right click, and hit execute batch file, then go to your ArcEmu folder, then SQL, then world_structure then, after thats done, go to your logon, execute batch file, logon_structure, then do the same for the character, but with the character db.

If you need some more help, just reply here .

Goodluck.

Thank you Kiev...i got the logon and world servers up and running...now when i try to logon to my server.. wow gives me the cannot validate game version error screen. the only info i could find on what patch the latest arcemu is running said it was 3.3.2 (which is what my game is on. Any thoughts?

[RyeRye]

Ok. I seen your post, but MAKE sure your on 3.3.2 when you startup WoW check the bottom left of the screen. If your on 3.3.3 you need to get a special patch from people from ArcEmu (i could give it too you if you want) Its VERY VERY unstable though. So I do not recommend it. Stay on 3.3.2, just make sure your on 3.3.2, and then message back here.

Ok. I've never personally used SQLYog, I really like Navicat, and I don't know the difference, Navicat is just really nice and easy to use. And yes you need both of the DB's.

And no problem, it's fine. Don't hesitate to ask for help.

[BooDeHunter]

yeah my bro always used sqlyog so i am more familiar with it.

[RyeRye]

Well if your at 3.3.2, make sure your ArcEmu is fully updated, it could be below a patch.

To do this, right click your ArcEmu folder, and hit SVN update.

And I don't know anything about SQLYog, sorry :|

[BooDeHunter]

ok i did the svn update earlier this morn...now will i have to recompile after

[RyeRye]

I don't think you have to recompile after, atleast, I never do.

[BooDeHunter]

well i did the svn update for both the arcemu and whydb....still wont connect get the same wow error page...im gonna make the char DB in sqlyog and see what that does

[Kiev]

You do need to recompile RyeRye. xD.

Make sure you have edited your logon.conf to allow your client build, this could be old for whatever reason.
