How to Configure MaNGOS the World of Warcraft Emulator

Update : You can browse this site software category if you’re looking for my mangos release or my custom mangos release … btw i’d suggest you to get my mangos release first because it has been tested with WoW 2.2.3 and will be updated frequently (even easier than anything written on this old post because i already include everything you need to run your own wow private server except for mysql program of course)

This is the old version of my WoW Private Server Guide, the new version that gives you a detailed step (with images) can be found at below links :

  1. Installing MySQL
  2. Setting up the Mangos
  3. Just in case you want to create lan party
  4. Setting up the webserver to put registration page

It’s been a while since the last time i post something to my blog and that’s because i’ve been playing World of Warcraft in various private / public server, from WowScape, WowFusion, b3ckswow, etc (i'm switching various server because some of them always disconnect me a lot) …

But let’s keep that aside shall we ? because this time i’ll post a guide on how to setup your own world of warcraft private server using MaNGOS (i'm sure there are many other WoW Emulator out there, but i choose this one instead)

And as a note, currently i'm using the World of Warcraft classic version (1.12.1) and this guide might or might not be useful for you if you’re trying to setup TBC (The Burning Crusade) server

So here’s the step …

Update :

If you find this guide a little bit confusing, maybe you should try reading my new guide on how to create wow private server the easier way .. also to those who’s keep getting SQL error or want the easiest way of importing the sql, i already uploaded my mangos sdb (updated till changeset 156) and already tested to work with Mangos Rev3462

You can find all of the files required (including mangos itself) in my new post .. so be sure to check it out too ;)

Required Software :

  • MySQL : This is important because MaNGOS use MySQL as it’s database and currently i'm running the 5.0.xx version
  • MaNGOS : Without this you can not run a private server of course but do not forget to get the binary files instead of the source files unless you have Microsoft Visual Studio 2003 ++ installed and want to compile it by yourself (currently i only have MSVC 6 so there’s no way i can compile it, and the Visual Studio 2005 Express version is to large for me to download it)
  • Map Extractor (both of them included) :
    1. Ad.exe : This is used to extract maps files from your World of Warcraft files
    2. MPQE : This is used to create DBC files which is extracted from WoW games data too
  • SDB : This is the database used by MaNGOS and to make your private server playable of course this is a must. And the one you must download first is SDB FULL 0.6.2 including it’s hotfix and it’s update (you must register first)

Note : You can get binary release of Mangos from Mangos-Files.de

New Update :

Im sorry previously i did not upload the changeset 141 till 156 files because i thought everyone can find the changesets files easily (also i do not know if the SDB team allowed me to put that thing here) … but to make thing easier (and that’s the purpose) .. i decided to upload the changesets file here (if it’s not allowed i’ll removed it immediately) :

You must run the sql files in order (eg 141, 142, 143, and so on) and the step to execute this sql script is described in step 5

Optional Software :

  • MySQL Client such as Phpmyadmin, etc (although in this example i did not tell you how to use those mysql client) so feel free to use mysql client or not

Special Note :

  • If you get an error message saying the maps files is outdated or anything similar to that message from the Mangos Log, that means the Ad.exe you’re using is incompatible (i have experienced this) and i'm pretty sure the Ad.exe you’re using is for the Burning Crusade client so try getting the old version a little bit
  • Im currently using Mangos Revision 3459, because the later revision from 3463 and above did not work for me (i have tested it) and i'm sure it was caused because i do not have TBC installed
  • Im currently using SDB 0.6.2 and updated till changeset 1.5.6
  • And as a reminder, i'm using World of Warcraft Client version 1.12.1

Let’s begin …

I assume you’ve downloaded all the required software and now as for the next step :

Note : If you did not set up password for the root account of your mysql database the default password is blank .. but in this example i’ll write username as username and password as password :P

1. Install MySQL and do not forget to enable InnoDB when prompted also check to make sure MySQL is in the Environment Variable Path … and activate the mysql service if you havent do so or if it is not started yet and you’re done installing MySQL

Note : Setting up environment variable for mysql is necessary to make thing easier, because you can execute it from any location

2. Extract the mangos program you’ve downloaded into your desired location for example, C:\WoW\Mangos

3. Open the Run command (Start -> Run) and type cmd and press enter and you’ll see command prompt window

4. Now type this in the command prompt :

  • cd /d C:\WoW\Mangos\sql
  • mysql -u username -p -v < create_mysql.sql
  • mysql -u username -p -v -D realmd < realmd.sql

Note : Feel free to adjust database name to your liking but in this example i only show you the easiest way of doing it

5. Extract the SDB Full 0.6.2 file, SDB 0.6.2 Hotfix, and SDB Update into desired location, for example C:\WoW\SDB and type this in the command prompt :

  • cd /d C:\WoW\SDB
  • mysql -u username -p -v -D mangos < SDB_0.6.2_FULL_DB.sql
  • mysql -u username -p -v -D mangos < SDB_0.6.2_FULL_DB_HotFix.sql
  • and continue with the update by typing the same command with the exception you must change the filename after “<” character

Note : You must update the database according to it’s version number (0.6.2 Full database equal to changelog / revision 1.4.0) so the update you must get is 1.4.1 and above .. as an addition, it might take a while before the full database imported so you can take a break while doing so

And now you’re done setting up database for MaNGOS … and feel free to delete the extracted sdb file

6. Copy the ad.exe into your WoW game directory, for example C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft. And create maps directory in there and run the ad.exe .. and yet another break time :) .. and when this process finished move the maps directory into your desired location, for example C:\WoW\data\maps

7. Now you’ll need to copy MPQE you’ve downloaded earlier into WoW games data directory, for example C:\Program files\World of Warcraft\Data. And now open command prompt again and type this :

  • cd /d C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Data
  • MPQE /p dbc.MPQ DBFilesClient\*.dbc

You’ll see another directory created called MPQOUT inside the data directory. Now go open that directory and rename the DBFilesClient directory to DBC, and move it into C:\WoW\Data\DBC for example

Congratulation, now you’ve finished setting up the data required for mangos

8. Now for the last step you’ll need to open the mangosd.conf inside the mangos directory and edit below lines :

  • Change the DataDir = “@MANGOSD_DATA@” into your data location inside the quotes, in this example it would be like this “C:\WoW\data”

Now you’ve finished configuring Mangos and it’s database completely, as for the next step .. try running the mangosd.exe and realmd.exe and see if you can run it without problem or not .. if there’s no problem you can go to the next step (you do not need to close the realmd process and mangosd process)

9. Go to your World of Warcraft game directory and open the realmlist.wtf file using notepad or other text editor program .. and edit it like below :

  • set realmlist 127.0.0.1

Now you’ve finished configuring WoW to used your mangos server

10. Now you can connect to your own server, if you want to create new user account you can do so by typing create username password from the mangosd window (it’ll create normal user account). But if you want to create GM account you can do so by typing this from normal command line (type cmd in the run command) and type below lines :

  • mysql -u username -p
  • USE `realmd`;
  • INSERT INTO `account` VALUES (NULL, 'username', 'password', '3', NULL, NULL, NULL, '', CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, '0', '127.0.0.1', '0', '0', '0000-00-00 00:00:00', '0');
  • quit

To get commands for your GM account, you can type : .commands at the chat window inside the game

That’s it you’re finished configuring Mangos and WoW to be played locally :) and here’s some screenshot (please don’t laugh on my equipment because i dont know anything about good items or equipment in WoW and that’s why i choose to play it locally first to learn about WoW) :)

    But the error is the same. If any1 as managed to crate the server I would apreciate the help. My msn mail is anidrosan@msn.com in case anyone can help me.

    You must use your mangos directory. i.e. : Your mangos directory is E:\Mangos, use cd /d e:\mangos. If your mangos directory is C:\wow\mangos, use cd /d c:\wow\mangos. Etc...

    hm .. that's strange .. did you use another patch to your wow installation ?

    try reinstalling world of warcraft (fresh install, mine was 1.0 version ), and download the 1.12.0 patch (400 mb++) and install the 1.12.1 patch (3 mb++) .. btw that's what i done to my wow installation and it worked fine ;)

    # Xtonic

    What windows version you're using ? winxp or win9x ?

    if you're using win9x (or non win xp system) try this command instead :


    cd D:\WoW\Mangos

    or without /d option

    aah ic .. then the problem is because mysql havent been configured in your environment variable path

    the solution is try this :

    1. Open System properties (if you're using windows Keyboard press CTRL+PAUSE/BREAK)

    2. Open the Environment Variables

    3. In the system Path add below line (if you're running mysql 5 the default path would look something like this or adjust it to your mysql bin path) :

    - Variable Name = Path
    - Variable Value = C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin

    please note insert that value after anything else (im sure there're other value there)

    that's it now you can run mysql command from anywhere :)

    aah forget to tell you this, there is other alternative if you dont want to set mysql into your env. path

    try using this command line instead if you dont want to use env. path (for example like below):

    X:\Where MySQl Directory Located\bin\mysql.exe -u username -p -v < create_mysql.sql

    to see mangos version, you can see it from the revision number but to make thing easier :

    mangos revision below / < 3463 support wow classic while >= 3463 support burning crusade and cant be used on wow classic only (for example like myself)

    Im sorry for late reply because i just got back from outside .. lol

    and to answer your question :

    - By the way, i’m using mangos 0.6, couldn’t find the 0.5 version. Don’t know if matters.

    Well .. actually what's important is it's version / revision number. And i'd suggest you to use the revision 3462 or below (3462 is better of course) if you only have WoW classic installed and use the SDB until changeset 156

    - Yay, i have managed to create the server. Just one problem, there are no NPC’s, do you know how to put them ?

    No NPC ? are you sure you've imported the full database (SDB) correctly ? and did you apply the hotfix and the updates ?

    because the NPC are already included in the full database :) .. that is if you're using the SDB package

    glad it works fine for you :)

    btw to know which version of mangos you're using try typing version at the mangosd process (command)

    as for editing the database directly using notepad or other text editor is not possible because the database was stored in mysql database format but you dont have to worry about it because there are two ways to edit your character info :

    1. Edit the data stored in the mysql database using MySQL Client program to make thing easier and not using the command line like in this example (but it's not recommended unless you know about mysql)

    2. Using the GM commands (recommended) and to get all available gm commands try typing :

    .commands

    at the chat window in game

    for example to modify your character Talent Point :

    .modify tp (number)

    although the effect is temporary because the value recalculated each time you log in

    as a side note, im using mangos 0.7 SVN (R3462 and not plan to upgrade or to switch it in the near future unless i get the TBC client) lol .. by Maxi

    I am currently running this and it works great. I have a quick question about the DOS box that is up while the server is running though...

    What is the syntax to send a message using the DOS box as opposed to using the in-game .announce command? If I am not playing and want to warn others about a reboot for example, it woul dbe handy to simply type it in the DOS box.

    Thanks for your efforts BTW!

    # Glyn (Zaphod) Evans

    You can use broadcast your message command from the mangosd window :)

    # Xtonic - Riding skill problem

    I guess you want to learn the raptor riding skill (because i experience it too) when creating horde orc character. The only problem i have is because my character is in battle mode and that's why i cant talk to raptor trainer

    other than that, you might also found problem at later time when doing orc quest at crossroad .. and the only solution so far i have found is :

    by typing .gmon to temporarily disable monster from attacking your character (although there're no nearby monster) and it does the trick for me :)

    or the other way around you can learn the skill by typing .learn skill_id (i prefer not to use this for the first time because i want to learn about WoW system) lol

    # Xtonic - Using DNS

    Although i havent tried it yet (because i dont want to open specific port used by mangos in my computer) .. but maybe you can try signing up into Dynamic DNS Server so you can assign dns to your computer ip address

    and thsi is often used when you try to create web server on your computer that is accessible from outside world (internet)

    a good dynamic dns service i've tried is from Sitelutions (i already assign one address to my computer but i cant give the address to public using my own domain name) :)

    try looking for those two files using Windows Explorer and see if you can find them

    or are you using burning crusade client ?

    (also .. if you want i can send you the DBC file) because its not that big - 1.60 MB compressed :)

    yes .. the /d option used to automatically switch into the target directory from anywhere, but i forgot if this option exist in windows 2000 and below or not (this is what i always use in windows xp because it's pretty handy) for example :

    - you're at D:\ and want to switch into C:\WoW and instead of typing C: && cd Wow you can use cd /d c:\wow :)

    # Xtonic

    Yep everything worked fine and i dont see any major problem at all except for minor glitch :)

    as for you error, i experience it because i was running the ad.exe for TBC client which is incompatible for my wow classic client and im sure you're having the same problem too

    because i cant find 04331 map either in my computer so i can assume you're using different version

    btw which version (the revision number) of mangos you've downloaded into your computer ?

    I wnat that a computer in my network can access to the server, how can i do it ? is any way I can make it enter by opening a port in my router or is something diferent ?

    first you must edit the realmlist table in realmd database and set it to your dns name or ip address

    and configure wow client to connect to your dns name .. that's it

    but in order for other computer to connect to your computer you configure your router to portforward automatically (this is for internet)

    as for lan ... just edit the realmlist and set wow client to use that lan ip address

    I can’t find the Item Sets only, any other item works fine. Are the dungeons working on your server ?
    Thanks

    item set ? it works fine for me :) .. if you see the screenshot my character was using Dreadnaugh or something item set

    I have managed to fix the map error, I can login, but when I login i cant enter in the realm, it appears logging in and then the window of the realm appears again and again. I'm trying to fix that now, any help would be welcome :D

    I just want my server to be available for Lan use, my 2 computers only. But I can't do that, the realmlist files in D:\MySQL\data\realmd are all with squares, can't read it, but I don't know if it's there I must change something.
    But for now my first priority is to set up the realm, because I can't enter it :P

    hm .. i think there's a misconfiguration somewhere try checking the realmd and mangosd configuration file

    as for server available for lan, try editing the realmlist table in the realmd database and set it into your lan ip address .. but i'd suggest you to use mysql client such as phpmyadmin to make thing easier to edit mysql database entry in the future

    Hi. Great guide. I have managed to create the server but I can't make a GM acc. I write these things:
    mysql -u username -p
    USE `realmd`;
    INSERT INTO `account` VALUES (NULL, ‘username‘, ‘password‘, ‘3′, NULL, NULL, NULL, ”, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, ‘0′, ‘127.0.0.1′, ‘0′, ‘0′, ‘0000-00-00 00:00:00′, ‘0′);
    quit
    But when I try to connect it won't recognize me. Are there any other way to add a GM account?

    Ok, so I found the 1.12.1 DBC files extracted through another site, but I error out on mangosd.. It errors at Loading Creature Template and says "Error in 'creature)template' table, probably sql file format was updated ."

    I was careful to make sure I only patched the full 1.12.0 patch and the 1.12.1 patch, and I used Mangos 3459. I used MySql Essential 5.0.37-Win32. Any ideas as to what could have gone wrong?

    Which one ? the cd /d or cmd ? if you're using win9x try to use command instead of cmd

    # PepsiG

    Did you use another database ? or which sdb version you're using ? because the only supported SDB for Mangos client below 3463 is SDB FUll 0.6.2 with fix and patches until Changeset 156

    As for your mysql installation im sure it's already worked fine :)

    # PepsiG and WurthSkidder7

    im sure there are missing runtime for your system. And because im not the one who compiled ad.exe i dont know which runtime to be exact .. but to make sure your system can run various program without problem (even for new program) try downloading below files from Microsoft site :

    - Microsoft .NET 2 Runtime
    - Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package

    Try downloading the above two files and install them into your system first :) and see if it worked for you or not

    I used sdb full 0.6.2 and hotfix, but I used the ones available for download as of yesterday, so unless the hotfix was updated recently that should not do it, right?

    I had to download the DBC files for 1.12.1 from an independent site because I could not get the MPQE program to work. I will try adding those files tonight and see if that lets me run MPQE and fixes my DBC/mangosd problems.

    Thanks for the quick response!

    Reaper-X,

    Thanks, that did the trick for MPQE. However, I think I may have figured out what was causing my probelm.. I only have changeset 140. How do I upgrade to 156? Do I have to do all changesets between the two (i.e. 140 to 141 then 142, 143, 144, etc..)?

    And how do I install the changesets? Are they just .sql files I save to a directory? If so, which directory?

    Thanks!

    That is the same (type) of error I am getting. Are you at changeset 140? or did you update your changeset? If you did not update your SDB changeset above 140 that is probably part of the reason you are getting that error..

    I am currently trying to figure out how to update the changeset, but so far no luck.

    To update the changeset you can execute the sql files using the same command described at step 5

    mysql -u root -p -v ..... etc etc etc ....

    The default username for MySql 5.0 is root I believe, at least it was for me when I set a password.

My wife and I moved to a new place with no internet services available and I have been dying to play!.. We are still paying our subscription fees so I dont feel that I am hurting Bliz.

I am thinking of setting the IP of the server computer to a set number and using that same IP for the set realmlist setting)

    Is there a way to "recreate" our characters that we have out on Bliz servers so we don't need to start from scratch?

    mysql -u….. saying there is no command for mysql

    if you get that message, that means mysql you havent configured mysql bin in your environment path .. newer mysql version can automatically set your environment variable path for you (if you didnt unchecked it when installing mysql)

    i've wrote about this environmental path few pages back (try looking for it)

    but just in case you dont want to use environment var path, you can also use :

    C:\Where MySQL Located\Bin\mysql -u root -p .. and followed by the other commands used instead

    Error message ? could you post the error message here ? because i just tested it now without problem

    As for data from Blizzard, it is not possible .. because im sure the data saved in official server are differents than the emulator version but the most important thing is no one can touch the blizzard data :P

    to make thing easier, you can increase the exp rate by editing the mangosd.conf file in mangos directory and set the exp and drop rates to your liking although setting the drop rate higher than 10 (i only test in 1, 5, 10, 100, and 1000 int) may result in problem with quest item not being dropped by the monster

    as for the exp you can adjust it freely

    as for getting individual item or item set, you can try this command :

    .lookupitem
    .lookupitemset

    and to add it into your inventory use this command :

    .additem
    .additemset

    maybe i should create new post about mangos gm commands .. hahaha

    Hm .. i dont know much about it since i only played as Tauren warrior, human mage, and orc warrior .. and i never played on the official server lol (beside until now, im still learning about wow) ..

    a good example of this case is, once time i try using the gm commands to have all spells and skills for my tauren warrior character

    and i saw there's a DnD Spell or something that can transform you into animal ... i clicked on it .. and OMG .. i change into a cat !!!

    Since i know nothing about WoW .. and i cant return / dont know how to return my original form .. i decided to create new character lol

    Thanks and im glad it could work for you too :)

    btw as for the error message, i just take a look at the changeset 155 sql file and i didnt saw the sql command used to create new database

    im sure you imported the wrong file, because all the changeset file only updating the table created by the full SDB and it's hotfix .. and if the table cant be found, of course it wont updating

    maybe you should re-import the whole sql start from 0.62 Full -> Hotfix -> Changeset 141, 142, 143, 144, and so on and see if you get the same error message or not ;)

    sorry for so many posts just wondering if anyone new how to make a registration page or had a link for a guide on how to make 1 (great guide by the way reaper thanks again)

    Dont worry about it, because comments form are made for something like this

    as for registration page, if you want the simple way, mangos-files.de already created it (look under misc files section)

    but in order to use it, you must already set up apache HTTPD server with PHP installed on your computer

    This is probably a question I missed while skimming over the other comments, and if it was answered I apologize in advance. I'm not very knowledgable on how this works but if I begin taking these steps to make my own mess-around server will I still have access to Blizzard's official ones? Or would I need to re-update my WoW to their current version as opposed to the 1.12.1 version you use.

    Sorry if this makes little sense, I'm not too good at explaining

    hmm i have PHP 5 and the registration page from magos but I cant seem to figure out how to get apache running or which file to download as the apache site downloads are all in FTP instead of HTTP with no real explanation on how to use it

    aah the one you must download is the apache HTTPD server, if the only mirror you get is from FTP, dont worry because basically its just the same (although using different protocol)

    as for installing apache, i think it'd be very long if i have to write it here but you can try installing it normally like any other program. And when you've finished installing apache try open your browser and type this in the address bar :

    http://127.0.0.1 or http://localhost

    if you can see it, that means apache succesfully installed on your system

    as for integrating php into apache in windows, there are two ways to integrate it

    first by loading the php module into apache or run php as cgi

    but i'd suggest you to try installing apache first and see if its working and can be accessed or not ;)

    o ya i almost forgot i redownloaded the changesets and tried importing them again and got the same error but the game works fine without it

    Hm .. that's strange because i didnt get any errors message at all .. maybe you should try dropping all of the table in the realmd and mangos database first and then reimport it again

    as a note, your best bet is to make sure the error message isnt appearing because there will be problem later

    # Syl

    ERROR 2017 (HY000): Can’t open named pipe to host: . pipe: mysql (2)
    Error I get when trying to use the mysql -u username -p -v

    Ah .. that problem was caused because you're trying to use named pipe (this option only available in windows nt series or windows xp) and you havent configured / enabled it in your mysql configuration

    to fix the problem try adding below line into the my.ini file in your mysql installation directory

    enable-named-pipe

    put it inside the [mysqld] section of my.ini

    try it first and see if it's fixed the other error or not

Or would I need to re-update my WoW to their current version as opposed to the 1.12.1 version you use.

    basically what makes the differences between accessing the blizzard server and private server is the location of wow server listed in realmlist.wtf in your wow game directory (although im sure its more complex than what im thinking now) .. and thats why you should keep backup copy of your old realmlist / default realmlist (actually if you forget the default realmlist i can tell you the address or just run the patcher)

    other than that if you update your wow installation to the latest one im sure there'll be incompatibilities with mangos .. but maybe i think it best for you to ask this question in mangos forum since most people there already familiar with this kind of stuff :)

    I’ve tried doing what there website says and setting mysql to work with old passwords but it was to no avail i got the same error if you would like to see the php code let me know

    If you get auth error because your client doesnt support new mysql auth try adding this in your my.ini files in your mysql install dir

    old-passwords

    and dont forget to restart the mysql service by using this command :

    1. net stop mysql
    2. net start mysql

    As for the sql error, dont worry soon i'll upload the complete database and including anything else required except for maps (because the filesize is really big and my internet connection speed especially the upload speed is slow)

    # thomas

    did you create the maps directory first before launching the ad.exe ? if you didnt create it first you'll get that error message ;)

    # PepsiG and other that is experiencing sql error

    Soon i'll upload the complete database, DBC files, and the Mangos Server itself (R3462) to make thing easier :)

    So I have it up and running, and I opened my ports on my router and I can sign in as a newly created username. But then it gives me the server selection screen (only choice is Reaper-X server) and I select it and click OK. The problem is it just goes right back to the server select screen.

    I tried to change the "127.0.0.1" in mangosd and realmd to the IP of my server computer but then mangosd and realmd would not run.

    Any thoughts on what to do?

    ah actually you shouldn't change the 127.0.0.1 in mangosd and realmd.conf because it's the IP address (which is a Loopback address) of your own MySQL server

    Btw try changing the address back into 127.0.0.1 and try running the Wow again, and if you get the same problem try posting the log :)

    Reaper-X,

    I got it now! Yay! Ok, so fo all those of you who are having problems getting your server up on LAN or internet here is what you need to do. As Reaper-X just stated, leave the mangosd.conf and realmd.conf to at 127.0.0.1 instead of changing the IP to your server's IP.

    Then download SQLyog Community Edition 5.30 (Stable) from http://www.webyog.com/en/downloads.php

    (The reason you want Community Edition is that it is free and requires no sign in)

    Next, Install SQLyog and connect using the following variables: MySQL Host Address 'localhost', username 'root' and use the same password you set up for 'root' in MySQL. Then click connect. [Disclaimer: It has been several days since I installed SQLyog so the login variables may need more info, but once you get in and see mangos and realmd databases on the right under 'root@localhost' you can proceed with this next part which I know works because I just did it yesterday] You should then see some databases such as mangos and realmd. Expand realmd and right-click 'realmlist' and select 'View Data'. Then you should see the server name and IP (probably 127.0.0.1) in the bottom-most right-hand box. Change the server name to whaterver you want, and change the IP to your server IP and check the box. Then make sure you right click the Name box and select 'Save Changes' and do the same for the 'Address' box. Then close SQLyog and make sure your router is forwarding the necessary ports and you will no longer get the "realmslist loop error" where you select the realm and it brings you back to your realms list.

    Thanks again for everyones help! Now that I have a stable server up on my LAN I will try and get started on a TBC version on one of my other (many) computers. Reaper, do you plan on setting up a guide for TBC server? If so let me know and I will help contribute as I troubleshoot my way into setting one up :)

    Thanks again to Reaper-X and his excellent guides (and uploads of changesets especially!) and, and to all of you who commented and helped clarify the small details. You helped bring WoW back to those of us who cannot get internet service because we are living in a rural area.

    Did you create the mangos database first (by running the create_mysql script)) ? because if you didnt created it first you wont be able to continue

    glad you found the problem, btw if you're using TBC client you must get newer ad.exe (perhaps the new MPQE too) .. but if you're using the WoW 1.12.1 version you can use all of the above files listed here (except for maps, because its too big for me to upload it)

    # Dave

    Actually im thinking about creating video too but i dont know if i should do it or not, because im sure the resulting video filesize would be big (the fastest upload speed is just 8 kBps)

    so im thinking on creating screenshot later, btw could you tell me which step isnt working for you ?

    or if you prefer to chat with me directly, i can do it too .. but take a look at my timezone first by clicking here

    My question is just, is it possible to play more than one player on the server? i mean like, can my friend from some other place login on my server and play with me ?

    If its a yes, please explain in detailed way - Sorry for bothering !

    Glad it work for you Lebanez :)

    and of course its possible to make your server public (LAN only or totally public)

    all you have to do is just edit the realmlist table in realmd database (realmd -> realmlist) using sql command or if you prefer to use MySQL Client you can use that too. And set it to your LAN IP Address if you just want to make it accessible from LAN only

    or if you want to make it public, you must register with Dynamic DNS Service such as sitelutions, no-ip, dyndns, etc

    and set the ip address into your dynamic dns address and configure the realmlist.wtf in your wow directory to use that address or IP

    and you're all set :D

    Actually there's no big differences between setting up WoW Classic server and TBC server ;)

    all you have to do is download the latest ad.exe , latest MPQE to extract DBC files, Mangos Binary Revision 3463 (3478 recommended), and SDB 0.6.3 (or perhaps SDB 0.6.2 + Hotfix + all changesets available)

    Um .. actually i've never seen Private / Unofficial wow server with lots of players. Most of the time, i only see 45 - 90 players only. And if i have to compare it with various Ragnarok Online private server that has more than 1000 players online well .. 45 - 90 is still considered low by me lol

    Btw if you want to create public server, all you have to do is just edit the realmd database (in this case maybe you should try using MySQL Client such SQLYog or phpmyadmin)

    but i never tried using SQLYog though so i cant give you anymore comment about it lol .. but if you just want to use command line here's the command (someone ask this to me via email previously while this guide age is still 1 day lol and it seems he's doing fine with his server) ;)

    - open command prompt and type :
    - mysql -u root
    - USE `realmd`;
    - UPDATE `realmlist` SET `name` = 'Your Wow Server Name', `address` = 'Your Lan IP Address' WHERE `id` =1 LIMIT 1 ;
    - quit

    btw i assume that you havent changed the default root account password and you're using the same database name as i described here :)

    Hm .. if i have to host it for public by myself ... i cant do it because ... i dont have the money to get a dedicated server lol ... and if using my internet connection speed, im 100% sure you'll experience real LAG connection (ping at least 10000 miliseconds) lol

    Actually the steps to make your server public is already explained above your last comment here :)

    As for changing the server name basically its just the same like making your server public but this time you just need to change the server name instead of changing the ip address

    btw are you using other 3rd party mysql client or not ? if you're not using 3rd party mysql client i'll give you the command to change your server name here :)

    Unfortunately register page doesnt come with mangos by default. But you can of course create it using PHP

    When other people try to connect to my server, they login successfully, but when they try to select a realm it just brings them back to the select a realm screen.

    Hey man. Nice work with the guide firstoff. It has helped me make a server and I'm getting excited to try to find instances such as Naxxramas and Molten Core.

    But I have a problem . It regards GM accounts. I did what was required to make one using the said method and it did not allow me to log in so I scrolled down to see if people had the same problems and a guy did so you told him to manually type it in , which I did but still nothing.

    UPDATE 'realmlist' SET 'name' = 'Example', 'address' = '123.456.7.89' WHERE 'id' =1 LIMIT1 ;

    Am I doing something wrong?

    Ah .. im sure you didnt type it correctly, and for your information (and others) :

    ` = backtick / tilde (~) key
    ' = single quote / double quote key

    I’m trying to get my friends on the server, but when they trying to connect it disconnects them immediately.

    I’ve had them try my IP in the realmlist.wtf file, aswell as 127.0.0.1

    Did you changed the ip address in realmlist table to match your public ip (internet or lan ip, thats depend on where your friend located ... in your lan or outside lan)? and do you have firewall software enabled

    and can you login to your wow server locally without problem ?

    # Luis

    Erm ... what do you mean by full package ? by default there's no such thing as mangos complete package. You'll have to download each required file separately :)

    # nicca

    Im sure there's something wrong with your configuration. Check the server log

    # Cager

    Did you get sql error message when you type it ? and if you did try typing it again using this info

    ` = backtick / tilde (~) key
    ' = single quote / double quote key

    # Xantra

    That error was caused because you didnt set the correct path to your .map files

    try adjusting the path as described in this guide :)

    # Nincb123

    Have you tried disabling DMZ and use normal portwarding instead ? and if you have firewall software installed try disabling it first (testing purpose)

    Im sorry but i dont have public server because my internet connection speed is nothing compared to all of you (40 kBps down / 8 kBps up)

    as for .add command, i guess you try to add item ?

    then you should try typing this :

    .lookupitem (any_item_name)
    .additem (item_id_returned_from_lookup)

    that's it

    as for itemset,

    Now I just need to know how I can get my friends to connect.

    I've had them try set realmlist 123.45.67.890(my IP)

    And it just says disconnected as soon as they try to log on.

    Also, I've tried using a host/redirect at no-ip.com, It also doesn't work. Unless I should be using a different host type, I have it set on the default DNA Host (A).

    Also, When I configure Realmd to use my public IP, I myself cannot connect, but if I have it use the local one, I can. (Which is what I’ve been doing)

    Well ... actually if you want to connect to your own server that is using your public ip, you'll need to do another step :) as described below

    Note : if you never do these step, make sure to backup the hosts file located in C:\Windows\System32\Driver\etc

    1. Open the Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts using notepad or other text editor

    2. And you'll see something like this :

    127.0.0.1 localhost

    directly below that lines add your LAN IP (the one used to connect to your router) like below for an example :

    192.168.xxx.xxx your-no-ip-address

    Thats all

    Yes ... unless you install the mysql in another computer :)

    Should I be able to put in my Public IP in realmlist.wtf and be able to connect to it?

    Yes ... after you do the above step that is involving hosts file editing :)

    Oh, and when I go to No-IP.com, and they show my Current IP, that is the public one, correct? Or is the 192.168.x.xxx it? I’m pretty sure that one is local though

    No-ip shows your public ip :) .. as for 192.168. yes .. that is the local

    Hi Reaper-X,
    thanks for the guide but .... my english is not very good ^^ and i am a noob
    it would be easier if u cold upload a folder(perhaps on a Torrent site) where you have already done all the steps so we just have to copy the things an play the game ^^
    it would help me a lot when you could do this
    thx....

    ok I did some research about it and I have a maps folder in my C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft and there were 2 dowloads posted on the site that i downloaded. It still doesnt work. I think that it might be that i have TBC and need a newer version of ad.exe but where can i get it?

    Very Nice info here. I am thinking of making priv server but I Still play on bliz servers. Is it possible to have a normal WoW (with BC expansion) and the private version at the same time? Im afraid to just try anyway because I dont want to mess anything up with my current normal WoW setup.

    Thank You.

    Im sorry for late reply everyone, because my old computer has finally rest in peace, and today i just bought a new replacement for it

    # Nincb123

    glad you found the solution :)

    # West

    Although that is possible, but since i dont have WOW TBC installed i think its pretty useless ... btw if you have WoW TBC installed on planning to create server for it, just add me on msn :)

    # Ryann

    Well ... of course not, because you can change the realmserver (realmlist.wtf in WoW install directory) anytime you wish to go back playing on official server ... ;)

    # warcom9292

    Hello warcom ... if you want to get the latest ad.exe (if you're using TBC client or to other who's running TBC client)

    download the ad.exe for TBC client from :

    mangos.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mangos/trunk/contrib/map_extractor/

    get the ad.exe only ;)

    Port forwarding depend on your router :( ... and im sure your router is different than mine

    # ryann

    if you use TBC you'll need to get new version of ad.exe, mangos, and its sdb :)

    btw get Mangos R3540 and SDB 0.6.4 FULL and you're done .. but if you want the latest version, you should get the latest changeset for SDB and then download mangos revision that is supported by that changeset

    Sure ... btw here's link to SDB 0.6.4 (can only be used for WoW TBC client only)

    - Rapidshare
    -Megaupload
    - Sendspace

    # Duke

    If your using Static IP, the next thing you should do is just configure the wow mangos to use that ip address (in realm.realmlist database)

    or you could also use dynamic dns provider, and use it too

    # Sold Out

    have you changed the realmlist ip address to match the server ip address (i mean the realmlist in mysql database)

    # Duke

    No you just need to forward 3724 and 8085

    The realmlist is 127.0.0.1. I'm also running the server on the same computer, but I don't know where do I get the server ip. When my friend wants to login, the game recognises te server, but then it keep saying "loging in to game server"(or someting like that) ,then it takes him to the realm selection list, he clicks on the only one and it says "loging in to game server" and the all ower again. But his computer sees the server.

    Do I only need SDB for Burning Crusade?
    Because I'm not using TBC for my private server.
    If that's the case I have another problem (I thought it was SDB related)

    # Sold Out (dunno why but i always laugh when typing your nick) :P

    Ah .. try setting the IP address into your public IP. To see your public ip address, you can use various website that offer ip detection such as whatismyip.com

    I’m also running the server on the same computer

    If you run the server on the same computer, you must edit your windows HOSTS file to use your lan address (not ip address displayed on whatismyip.com)

    if you want to a detailed step on how to edit host file try searching this post or my other wow post for HOSTS file (use your browser search function) :)

    If you dont use TBC client (WoW Classic Client), you must use the files listed in my other wow post :)

    or if you prefer to download from official site make sure you're downloading :

    - Mangos revision below 3463
    - SDB 0.6.2 Updated to changeset 1.5.6

    thats it

    You just need to change the realmlist table in realmd database to use your public ip / dynamic dns address

    and then configure the wow to use it ;)

    Try re-importing the whole mangos sql

    We've got maNGOS set up and we can log into the server.

    We've made a GM account with the software and successfully logged in.

    We can't type any GM commands into the window. We type them into the chat window and enter it, but nothing happens. There is no error message or anything.

    We want to be able to run our own private server being level whatever with anything we want, but GM accounts don't work!

    Hey,
    I managed to get the server running fine and im playing the game. The only problem is that it is extreemly buggy while im playing it. The main bugs im finding is that stuff keeps on falling through the floor (im guessing to 0 altitude or sumthing cos they seem to be the same level) the other problem is that any pet i get is realy glitchy (eg never moves) also quite a few quests cant be completed for sum reason.
    Is this normal for private servers?
    Thanks again Reaper-X lol this is the first time I have played WoW in English cos in China we get locked out of all the English worlds.

    p.s. Sorry about the long posts but dus any1 kno if it is hard to play burning crusade on mangos and if so then how?

    arg, lol sry to be anoying, i think im nearly done... im still trying to get it to work for TBC im kind of doing what i can with random files that i find from places and puting them together. first i make the databases wid the create_mysql.sql in the sql file in the mangos folder. then i put the SDB_0.6.4_FULL.sql into the mangos database using command prompt.

    Then i add the mangos.sql file from the sql file in the mangos directory, into the mangos database using command prompt again. and then i put the realmd.sql into the realmd database and then the rev170.sql from the forum into the mangos database.
    then i make a character and then go into the game. it then says that my coppy cant be validated. i took your advice from way above and then i tried it with all the TBC updates. so im not sure if it is that. I guess the problem is me gettin the files from all over the net or sumthing. do u have any ideas how 2 fix, i have gone thru making the mysql servers a few times but using the above method so it wasnt a typo.

    lol i promice that this will be my last question. tyvm for all of ur help

    # DarkM

    did you specify the username ? (use root)

    # BIGBOS

    Realmd / mangosd process closed itself automatically could be caused by :

    - Cant connect to database / mysql server (you must configure mangos to use mysql)

    - incorrect configuration (basically this is already explained why mangos process close itself) :P

    Hey Reaper,
    I'm having a bit of a problem getting this server up.
    when it comes to logging in (using internal loopback address) I get connecting and disconnected stright away.
    If I use the DHCP assinged address for the server I get a little further; it prompts me with the reallist when selecting the realm it keeps looping saying logging into server and then displaying realm list again.

    Did you come accross anything like this setting this up?

    # Druzz

    if you experience realm loop, there're few thing you should take a look at first :

    1. Check the realmd.realmlist (realmd database under realmlist table) and make sure you're using the same ip address there

    2. If you're not using loopback address (try stick to loopback first), then you need to set your ip address into the Windows hosts file

    3. or try reimporting everything (mysql) and see if there's something strange came in your server.log

    # tobi

    Well you can follow this guide although if you're going to create tbc server you need to make few adjustments :)

    Thanks Reaper, but its still stuck in a loop.
    I re-imported everything, server log does not show anything out of order.

    apart from this "Quest 3647 has `RequiredSkill` = 20219 but skill 20219 doesn't exist, quest can't be done."

    used loopback address and connects disconnects instantly.
    put dhcp address for server in clients realmlist.wtf and still gets stuck in loop with or without hosts file edit

    any ideas if there is something else in the DB I can change? as it appears the server is broadcasting the game just failing to write/access to the DB to create chars
    I know next to nothing about c++ and DB's so I am probablys very very wrong

    well you need mysql 5 (currently the latest stable now), mangos and sdb .. thats it

    as for mangos and sdb, latest version is not always good especially in this case (unless you know what you're doing)

    so instead of getting the latest version of mangos, try checking if the mangos version you're going to use already supported by sdb

    aah it seems you're using database from somewhere that is incompatible with the mangos version you're using

    for example, you've downloaded mangos (latest version) and you tried using my database from here you'll get that error message because the number of column used (sql) are different

    # maker103

    no ... actually i always try my best to respond to everyone :)

    Hello,

    Thanks to this wonderful blog I was able to bring up a Mangos server, I have a problem though.

    The engine appear to be up and running (on the console I see the ships moving from Kalimdor to EK)

    Im able to authenticate but I cannot log in to server (Mangos default realm)

    Im using MAngos 0.8 4096
    with SDBFull-203-4123

    I had to reload creature_template and creature_loot_template from another sql dump because of an error on mangus.exe (65 fields expected and they was 66 on table)

    all the firewalls are down and port 3724 responds correctly to telnet

    Database users grants are given (full)
    I even tried to use root (same problem)

    any suggestion?

    I run my own server now. Is there any way to update it to the patch that is currently running on the regular game?

    I have noticed that some of the original game is misisng some things and in Outland only half of Hellfire Pennensula has npc's where as the rest of outland doesn't excluding Shattrath city. Also all of the instances in hellfire are empty.

    Another issue is that when fighting npc's none of them use spells at all. For example Onyxia doesn't use any of her spells as well as all other raid bosses which make the game far to easy to be half done.

    If there is a way to update my private server I would like to know.

    the reason you boats get stuck is your mangos is running the correctly, its in your sdb youll need one that runs it, really your mangos should have updtated cordinates running on it all the time of where the boats have moved to, also jordan you can update your wow you just need to make sure your mangos and sdb are both 2.1.3 compatiable (most current at this time) to work other wise you get "uanble to validate game version"
    Chris, make sure on mangos type "setgm yourcharname 6" 6 is the highest gm and lets you get all gm commands. also if you type .command in game youll get you whole list.
    hope that helps

    When I try running Mangosd.exe it runs and auto-closes, so I look in the log file and it says:

    ERROR:Realm ID not defined in configuration file

    I tried setting the Realm ID to a list of different things, including the server IP and the numerical values that represent each type of server (1 for Normal, 4 for PVP, as listed in the mangosd conf file) but nothing is working, I keep getting that error.

    Aside from that, a helpful and well written guide.

    hit me up on AOLIM as m0nk31sl4y3r or I'll keep checking the boards to see if there's a response.

    When I run mangosd.exe, it just closes right away. I have the lastest version of WoW and the burning crusade is installed. Realmd.exe works, everything else works, but mangosd.exe just closes right away.

    DOTCONF++: file 'C:\Mangos\mangosd.conf', line 31: unterminated quote Could not find configuration file mangosd.conf.

    Mangosd.conf is in fact in my Mangos folder, so what the hell? Everything is up to date, what's going on here? Reaper please help me. Thanks.

    I forgot to mention it comes up as I click "Accept" in the character creation, I used SDB 4434, and MaNGOS 4423 ScriptDev2 120 aswell as 2.1.3 map extractor... maybe I used wrong ones?

    # Jeff

    look at the new wow mangos configuration especially at the update part, because i've uploaded my own compiled mangos version and also mirrored SDB which is tested to work with that mangos version :)

    # Jordan

    Unfortunately i havent tried antrix yet .. but just in case you want to try out Mangos 4431 look the new guide part 2 at the update section

    # Mc

    take a look at my previous comment :)

    Ok i manage to get under the mangos pre made admin account. I tried adding my own account it wouldn't make it...and I typed in the scripted provided here. Also while i'm under the admin account...I see no npcs, some words are not shown, some items I can't right click on. At the beginning selection screen for creating characters. I can't select the Drenai nor blood elfs. Is there another file I need to up load to mangos to fix this problems?
