Oky... My problem is that, when i try to install the mysql to my mangos that has the patch version of 2.3.2 it wants me to type my root password then i type it.. but after it it say that i need to type my database password but i dont know what is that... I cant see where did i get wrong b'coz i type my root password correctly. But that message always appers. I have also tried to uninstall and install my MySQL and Mangos but its still thesame. Can anyone help me?

okay sorry last post, i got everything working but now im getting an error when i try to log in, i think this is because i have wow version 2.4.2 and the server i have created is 2.3.2, if there is an updated mangos or if there is a way to simply change my wow back and forth between versions, that would be great, any pointers?

I looked at the extraction thread and have successfuly followed all the steps, including moving the extracted files to C:/WoW/data, even doing all of this i am still getting this error when i try to start the mangosd

Cheak existing of map file '@prefix@/share/mangos/map/0004331.map': not exist! Correct *.map files not found in path '@prefix@/share mangos/map' or *.vmap*vmdir files in '@prefix@/share/mangos/vmaps'. Please place the *.map/*.vmap/*.vmdir files in appropriate directories or correct the DataDir value in the mangosd.conf file.

help would be much appreciated

I seem to be very confused on where/how to extract the Vmaps, maps, and DBC. My magnos folder is on my desktop for easy accesablility, so i open that then open the tools, i need to know the path's to put the extracted DBC files and im pretty sure when i execute the maps tool nothing happens, i have extracted the Vmaps but i am unsure of where to put the buildings/vmaps folder. If someone could point me down the right "path" to where to put all this that would be nice :D

ok im stuck i installed my sql 2. Extracting Maps, DBC and VMaps from your World of Warcraft installation
(You can safely ignore the Patch-2, or any not found xxx-2 message)–This only happens if your extracting from patch 2.3.0 where do we extract them ??????

oh man this is so annoying place the database files into the \data\enus directory ok i do that when i click on extract-enus.bat

Output directory.
extracting from loacal patch-enUs.mpq

output directory.
extractomng from patch-enus.mpq

output directory. extracting from patch-enus-2.mpq
a Duplicate file name exists, or the file cant be found.

WTF also this has been a pain in the but sence the last emu that just worked for me but no mobs uses magic spells is this the same if so ill quit now cause im thinking this is designed for more pvp then solo stuff with eyecandy ie mobs using spells and swords. meaning i been looking at forms for the entire night and this version wont work. where am i going wrong besides spending 9 hours trying to make this work i know its a maps thing cause i get the unable to connect to the mysql error and i did read the posts when i try to re fix the maps right then i get that stupit duplication errors BUT great work guys hell of alot more patent then i could ever be thanks hope this is just me just being stupit

What does re-extract mean becuase i want to update from 2.3.0 oatch so what do i do to re-extract?

I've been running Mangosd.exe for FOUR DAYS now and its still not done loading and what not... i can change account, make accounts, etc. but its going through tons of code unlike it did before...

Also, I got my server up but its not letting me change the values in reaper-x-mangos.bat.... it asks for my data path (which is C:\WoW\Data) but when I enter it then I get the 'System cannot find the file specified' message.

PLEASE HELP!

This is such a great guide! I was wondering if it's possible to change the user interface. That's actually my fav part of wow, and i cant seem to figure it out.
