Reaper Mangos 5054 - Easy WoW Private Server for WoW 2.3.2 -Critical Update-
By Reaper-X on Jan 20, 2008 in Reaper Mangos, Reaper Mangos Mod
ATTENTION! There is a new release so this is now outdated and unsupported!
Well its finally here! The release that answers everyones questions and fixes everyones bugs! It took me about 8 hours of consistent coding and I believe that it is perfect. The only problem and thing I could not do was get the database updated. Besides that we have updated many things and added many new things as well.
Here is the list of newly added items:
*ScriptDev2 231 Actually Works!
*Auction House Bot Added
*Optional GM Island Vendors in Batch File
*Weather System is now Fixed!
*Lan Feature in Batch Now Works
*Transports Flooding Mangos
*DBC Files Already Included
...And of Course Much More!
REQUIREMENTS:
1. MySQL Database and the Guide on how to Install MySQL
2. World of Warcraft Client version 2.3.2
3. Updated DBC's, VMAP's, and MAPS.
DBC's are already included as part of this release!
4. Mangos Server :
Reaper Mangos 5054 SD2 231 UDB FULL | 17.09 MB | File Beam
Reaper Mangos 5054 SD2 231 UDB FULL | 17.09 MB | Rapidshare
Reaper Mangos 5054 SD2 231 UDB FULL | 17.09 MB | Mega Upload
Instructions Coming Soon
Basically since the installation instruction is just the same as before release, and i’m currently writing on the fresh installation guide so there’s no need to write it everytime there’s a new release available for download :)
in the meantime you can read the previous fresh installation guide :)

/emote downloads the new server as soon as it is uploaded.
I'll give it a good run through as soon as it's up and let you know if anything is out of the ordinary. Good thing too, I somehow managed too crash the creature-respawn database on my server again... My fault entirely. LOL
Great to hear Oatman! Cant wait to update once it's all posted and see the changes :)
any idea how soon this release will be avail to download?
Well it appears I have noticed some stuff that paused my uploading but I got it back up and its working fine. Just make sure you .NET FrameWork 3.5
You can get .NET FrameWork 3.5 at this link direct from Microsoft.

Thanks Jakalth
Woot! i just started to set up my server tonight, and i used your guide (amazing btw, best ive EVER seen!) in Combination with the Mangos website guides, and i'm now all set up, minus public, which im trying to fix-i have ports forwarded, and the Ip's added everywhere but STILL wont connect, gonna run the new batch file when its uploaded,- Finally, anyone know any good sites to get editors? Like, how to make your own items, quests, mobs, stuff like that?
#Ray
this site claims to be able to make items compatible with mangos.. but i've tried uploading them and it doesn't work all that well for me.. if you can get it to work let me know.
http://www.wowps.org/forum/showthread.php?t=465
Hey thanks, ill give it a spin once my server is set up!
For an editor, I use Quice:
http://quice.indomit.ru/
There may be better editors out there but it works for me. Edits items, quests, mobs, game events too some extent, and has limited character editing though even they do not recommend using that feature yet. Only thing it's missing is spell editing in my opinion.
#Ray
sorry that was a bad link i got the wrong site.
this is the actual site
http://www.demondestuctors.org/mangos/items.php
Nice, nice, i think I like Quice better, no tiering re-finding of SQL file!
guild bank? (yes/no ?)
cant wait to download and set up!
Does this revision have the new mailbox features as well? I never checked if the previous revisions did. Just wondering.
Yay!
where is the download
He's still preparing it, just wait a little bit.
ty for sure
can't get the dbc files to extract
never mine i'm a noob got it working
are you doing the new one 5054
I was hoping a dual database that include UDB and PSDB. Anyway thanks for the hard work.
are bosses fixed? they just melee in 5005 version
Anyone else having the problem where mangosd.exe is looking for the data directory but can't find the /maps /vmaps /dbc directories? (my guess is because it's using the wrong '/'s It needs to use '\')?
using /maps /vmaps /dbc directories or using \maps \vmaps \dbc directories is THE SAME... is not a problem!!
JimRaynor56->>
Make sure the folders are in your Mangos folder. Open up your mangosd.conf file. Go down to "#Data Directory Setting". Below that you'll see:
DataDir = "@prefix@\Reaper\data"
go ahead and delete everything within the quotes so that it reads:
DataDir = ""
Should work. That's how I did it anyway.
ahhh such awsomeness. just had fun playing with shade. excellent job! love having the bosses working good. but looks like chess is out, lol. thanks for the hard work =D
congratulation guys this works perfect....
having a error coming up while starting up mangos say `@prefix@\reaper\data/vmaps plz help i'm stuck
Read what I said up top. Take everything out of the data folder and put it in your main ManGOS folder. Then go into the mangosd.conf file (open with notepad) and change:
DataDir = “@prefix@\Reaper\data”
to
DataDir = “”
same message keeps coming up. the only thing in the data folder is dbc folder and i move it to mangos folder and then change mangosd.conf and still the same message
ty TKMsage its working now

NEEEEED HELP
I cant connect on my server...
when run WoW.exe and login on my server
show me connecting.... and nothing =(
Anyone can me help?
PS: Before version works fine...but this version....not conect =(
I cant figure out how to get the SDB.Im running the 5054, but i dont understand what it means by "the_filename_used_on_sql_dump_from_e_turray.sql". What do i tpe in cmd to get the SDB, thank you all :)
oh forgot to mention, since there was no instruction on how to set it up for SDB i used the instruction from this http://www.reaper-x.com/2007/06/28/configuring-mangos-for-tbc-server-or-wow-classic-server-setting-up-private-wow-server/
p.s: sorry for double post.
Hi,
First: Thanks for the good work, keep it up.
I have a small problem though which i cant seem to solve myself.
After installation, i can run the mangosd.exe and realmd.exe, creating a user goes fine, logging in as well (in the realmd.exe i see the succesfully authenticated) but when i try to login to the server it pops me back to the realm selection list. If i select MaNGOS there, it sais logging in to game server and pops back to the realm selection list again.
Im fairly new with this, just started with 4875 and im sure it's something stupid and small i have overlooked. But i cant find it.
Any help would be appricated.
Freaky.
Hi Guys ^^

"I’m having trouble, I got everything done but when I try and start mangosd.exe or realmd.exe, they give “has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience”… anyone got any ideas?"
problems
Goday
look up the GM Commands found here
http://www.reaper-x.com/2007/09/21/wow-mangos-gm-game-master-commands/
Unfortunately some things must be done the smith barney way, you earn them.
I love you, everything seem to work, only checked onyxia tough. Thanks :P
Well....
GEM's stats not work...and if u have anything item Legendary...if u logout...lost item...and stats too =/
And raise reputation in the citys (command for this) no have =(
Skills for Professions not work corretly too =(
Sry for my bad english ^^
Ok... The "Mangos Config Editor" option in the batch file doesn't work, gives an error about "this" not being a command, location, etc...
Too get the AHbot working, create a new account, set it as a gm too make it easier and bc enable it. In that account create a character. log in useing that account and character. Use the gm command; pinfo (character name you just created) too lookup the account and char id of this character. Take a note of these and edit the mangosd.conf file adding in these 2 numbers where it has this line:
# Auction House Bot character data
AuctionHouseBot.Account = 0
AuctionHouseBot.GUID = 0
This will activate your ahbot if the batch file doesn't do it for you.
The GM island vendors work and the AHbot works once the config file is setup. :)
This version fixes some bug but some other new bugs pops up. I've found out that you don't get talent points when you level up by default and fear causes the mob to disappear. That's what I've found so far.
I've used the upgrade feature and tested the fresh install. I'll make more reports of bugs when I could find more. hehe
for those having problems when they use the .learn all_crafts command, there is an easy fix. Just do .unlearn 42296. This will remove the 1 bugged recipe that slipped into this release somehow.
@mkl1976 and those having similar problem.
Check your mangos.conf file and look for this line;
# Talent Point rates
# Default: 1
Rate.Talent = 1
If Rate.Talent says it = 0 then you will get no talents so adjust it too 1.
as for the creatures disipearing, that sounds like a database bug imo...
Tested it as well, yes the creatures disappearing when feared is a confirmed bug.
wait how will i take all the data from the one from the first realease of this and put it into this new one?
Are you leveling your character up, equipping it with items and stats, then lowering its level back down?
The .modify command is not permanent when it comes to player stats or size.
cuz i have players on my server and they would be greatly disappointed if it got messed up =\
nvm i got it thanks jared/reaper =] you guys are great
Hey guys I have a small Q. If I already have mangos setup, but I want to delete my old DB and put this one instead? (Do a fresh install but not uninstalling MySQL).
yes just go into your reaper-easy-mangos dos files its in the reaper-x easy mangos folder and type in ur SQL bin path and type 1 or w/e option it says fresh install and it might take a while but you will have new DB
and if any one still needs help send me an email at jaiden53@hotmail.com and i will make you a video showing you how
Jakarth, I've tested leveling up with a fresh character with a fresh installation with the settings you gave. I still don't get talents at level 10+.
Maybe I should complete wipe of the database before I do fresh install?
Hey... i Really needs tha' New Commands (If Any :) )
Yeah, guys question, i can get on through my laptop which is connected to my router, but my friend cannot connect, ive done everything, and i have my LAN ip and Public IP in my realmd realmlist file. If anyone could help me out, it'd be appreciated! i even have my DNS thing, but how do i knopw if the address works or not?
@mkl1976
Backup your characters and try a fresh install. You should be able too add your characters back in with no issues afterwords. If it still has that problem, let me know. I'll try too think of anything else that might cause this problem.
@Ray
Did you update your hosts file in your:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
directory? You will need too add a line in there that has the ip that people connect too your computer at and where they are connecting too... example, like this:
192.168.1.1 IP.that.people.connect_to
the first one is your computers network ip, it will be as it is shown if you connect strait too the internet, but the last number will be different if you go through a router. 192.168.1.100 for example. The second one is the IP that others connect too your computer from. This will be either your Internet IP or if your using a dns service the IP you created.
@Kyle
Op 1 will not do on top installation but it will clean out the db and then install?
Guys for ops 7 it says this
What is your MaNGOS/World database name ?
What do I put?
#Ray
if you want users to connect to your server from online (will also work local) set your realm
to accept connections from your public IP. you can get this ip from http://www.whatismyip.com
1,(your realm name),(your public IP),8085,4,0,1,0, 0.02
this is how my realm is set up and ppl can connect from online or local network... i use navicat to set up the realm not sure if you want to use cmd or not but navicat is simple just put the data in and it's set up. hope this helps
#AlexT the database name should be "mangos" by default you don't need to change this to name your realm btw.
#n1t3
thanks! ill try out navcat, but what do you mean by change my realm to accept it? do i do this with navcat?
#ray instead of having your realm name as the default "mangos" you can rename it to whatever you like... this is what shows on your realm list. so you can name it "uber realm" lol . the second line in the synax 1,(your realm name),(your public IP),8085,4,0,1,0, 0.02. can be changed to anything without messing with ur db. navicat can be downloaded from http://www.navicat.com/download.html to change your realm name and ip just connect to your db "using your mysql login and pwd through navicat" go to realmd section and select realm from the submenu on the right. this will show you your realm info. just ask if you need any more info =)
thanks! but now i have ANOTHER problem, i re installed mysql and some stuff, and now, my realmd file is empty! what can i do?!
#ray just re-install mangos and you should be good
Ah! yes thank you very much! And Navicat owns Sqylog by a LOT so much easier to use, thanks for the help, if i have any more issues, i'll ask =)
#Ray np anytime and GL with ur server
OATMAN i sent u and email can u use logmein to fix my server?
hey, this is a lot nicer than 5005 (the first one i tried), but there's still a bug from it that i've noticed. Skinning seems to work the first time, but if you exit and try again, it increases your skill, but doesn't give you anything. This sometimes happens with herbalism too but not as often.
I've upped the number of talents to 4, since there are only a few people playing and this way we can get enough things, not sure if that would make a difference though.
Thanks
Alright, well ive done all that, and my public is in there, along with my private AND the DNS inside of the realmlist, but my friend STILL cannot connect! Any thoughts?
When i run Mangos Config Editor it says :
'This' is not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. What should i do?? Please help.
PS: My name is Robert. ;)
how do i mnake an acount
joe..
Btw if you can’t see what you should type inside the mangosd window from the above image, actually you just need to type :
create username password
to create the account
setgm username (1–3)
for example setgm myusername 3
hope this helps...
for Oatman.. can ya make a menu option to import accounts from 5005 to 5045.. thx..
@Jakalth: Nope, still doesn't work after doing what you have suggested. I guess I'll just reset talents and find a way to debug it.
alright now evrey time i try to open mangosd it says this at the end "check existing of map file '@prefix@\Reaper\data/maps':not exist!
correct *map files not found in path '@prefix@\Reaper\data/maps' or *.vmap\*vmd
ir files in '@prefix@\Reaper\data/vmaps'please place *.map/*.vmap/*.vmdir files
in appropriate directories or correct the DataDir value in tha mangosd.conf file "what do i do i really need help
Nevermind, I've found a fix for it. I've been using a hidden talent found in the database and it bugs the talent system. Thanks anyway
#ray go into your router setup and find where it sets port forwarding. i have a linksys router so it's under Applications
& Gaming tab and then select (if not automatically goto) Port Range Forward and set the application to realmd start port 3724 end port 8085 and set it to your realm's ip (not the one from internet the one you get from cmd : ipconfig) they should be able to connect afterwards.
if you don't know how to get to your router config just copy this to your browser it should take you to it... http://192.168.1.1
Ok, ill do that, that should do it, but how do i delete values from the Linksys? All my port fowarding things are full
can eneyone help me with my problem
#joe open the mangosd.conf with wordpad and find the values "@prefix@\Reaper\data/maps" and replace them with the directory that you have the map/vmaps etc. in
I think I found a bug or is it just me? The ! over npc's don't show up and it don't show up on mini map as a quest is near by. But when you move your mouse over the npc the ! shows up ass your arrow.
Hey Man
Open mangosd.conf
an search
# Data directory setting.
# Important: DataDir needs to be quoted, as it is a string which may
# contain space characters.
DataDir = (here put "C:\WoW\data" and try open mangos)
This coment above for a Joe ^^
Lol, so, i got everything good, all ports forwarded, but I now have realm looping. Any help?
I'm getting an issue when I use
Mangosd.exe, and realmd.exe
It tells me it cannot bind to either of the ports. Could someone tell me how to enable ports? Or find out what is clogging both of them.
(Even If I'm trying to connect to myself would I have to enable the ports ont he main computers settings?)
WTG****
Super noob here, but was able to install 5054 on my computer with the GM Island vendors.. LOL
Thank you all for all of your wonderful work..
Will be testing quest and all to see what has been fixed.
FYI I am a lvl 3 gm on a private/free server and am using my own wow server as a testing ground so I can make recommendations/changes as I can.. on the private free server.
My hat is off to all who delivered what they promised in this release..
:)
sorry for all the posts. if you need any help from me (so i don't blow up the forum with posts) you can contact me on yahoo messanger @ WOWn1t3@yahoo.com send me an IM if you want help
quest: "caverns of time" is bugged. the custodian of time will not show up.
Jumob, I'm assuming you're using a router right?
What you need to do is find a guide for the specific router you're using (either the manual, or google) and open the specific ports up.
@ n1t3:
That's probably a database problem. Hopefully one day all the quests will work right, but as of now the database creators do their best. Generally, many quests in the expansion are bugged, and brand new quests (such as those new in Dustwallow Marsh in 2.3) have to be put in a future revision.
Okay, my question:
Does anyone know how to apply character data from a former revision? I backed up my old char data and tried to use option 4 in the installer to bring it all back, but I can't seem to figure it out. Any help is much appreciated.
Nero
Can some one check if they get the same thing?

Hi-
I updated with the 5054 and everything seems to be okay, with the following exception. I get this error on mangos loadup with scripts, is this normal or how to i get it to load properly?
Scripts Library MaNGOSScript.dll was successfully loaded.
SD2: ScriptDev2 initializing, revision 230
SD2: Using configuration file ScriptDev2.conf
SD2: Using locale 0
Could not connect to MySQL database at 127.0.0.1: Unknown database 'scriptdev2'
SD2 ERROR: Unable to connect to Database
SD2: Loaded 448 Scripts
By the way, y'all are doing a hell of a job. I just started my server a few days ago and I have little/no programming knowledge, and minus a few hangups at first, your directions are very spot on!!! Good job to all involved!!
When I want new items I usually jsut go here to grab new items.
http://wow-v.com/item.php?id=5216
Biggest problem I run into is the people from outside hitting the server get to the realm screen and then can't get to the character screen. Has anyone solved this problem and have a good analysis of what the blockage is? I had it working once by putting the machine directly on the modem not through a router and turning off the machines firewall but thats not a viable solution.
Informative-->
You have your ports forwarded right?
i see that this version has Vendors added to the database was wonderin how u get the new vendors to show up ? like whats the command or something ?
feared in tempest keep and i dropped out of the ship...
had to .die myself to get everything back.. it was funny but a bug.
Nero, are you not able to inject it using SQLyog or Navicat?
I just finished updating 5005 with 5054 and it updated fine, BUT there are still issues. Mailboxes are still missing and so are the anvils and forges. Is anyone else missing these items as well?
@Rocko
Run the reaper-x-mangos batch and select 7 i think for the vendors...
*if i remember correctly thats how i did it*
@Deg31
those are for GM vendors on GM island to show which is working fine but Mangos program it self also shows newer vendors added to the game which ID are from 50001-500078 i bleave im trying to activate one for the main city ie SW or org
bug report #... something... can't target any of the bosses in the theatre event
@Rocko
Ah, okay, sorry bout that, if you find anything out let me know, I might be interested in learning that as well ;)
For some reason Mobs dont aggro to me and I can attack them but they don't die ... they are yellow to me.
Got 5054 up and running. My problem is that me and the map on my mini map do not load up. Any ideas on how to fix?
@Tim_C you may have GM mode on, just type .gm off that should fix it
@Matron Thanks that worked :)
I have 1 other issue I cant seem to get working. Everyone and their mom can connect to my server public. I can connect to it fine as well. But my wife on the same router as me cannot connect. Any Ideas?
Hey i made an item on WoW Vendetta and i got the notepad with the code thingy inside it... now where do i place to notepad or where do i put in the code so it gets put in the game?
Hi again guys.
I have just updated my server with 5054 and all went extremely well, but still unable to get people to connect from external sources.
I have added the correct port forwarding, have a dns entry pointing to my external ip. Added the entries into the hosts file for external and internal ip's but still just bounces people back to the realm selection screen. I was unable to fix this in 5005 and was hoping 5054 might be different. Also running SQL 5.1 community in case you wanted to know.
Any help appreciated.
Giff
@Tim_C
You're welcome
@Ffs Died
From what I could understand from Wow Vendetta you gotta download a program. Check around the forums, or make a new topic. they're all pretty nice
All looks good except for this on mine.
Any ideas?
Creature (GUIDLow: 89384) has wrong spell 26248 defined in `auras` field in `cre
ature_addon`.
Creature (GUIDLow: 89385) has wrong spell 26250 defined in `auras` field in `cre
ature_addon`.
Creature (GUIDLow: 89386) has wrong spell 26249 defined in `auras` field in `cre
ature_addon`.
Do we need to forward anything else besides ports 8085 and 3724? I forward those to my static PC IP which looks like 192.168.1.180 or whatever.
#informative
I've forwarded just those 2 ports as well. You getting the same problem I am?
@Giff: I know suggestions coming from someone who still can't get it to work either may seem curious (but I did have it working at one point by taking the router out of the chain entirely which I considered a non-solution). Oddly turning off the router firewall entirely doesn't fix it either which makes me think it's not port forwarding.
One thing I suspected and may yet be true is on the root password in the "MySQL Server Instance Config Wizard" I forgot to check off the allow remote access to the Root checkbox under where you type in the root password. That may have caused part of the problem trying a full reinstall with that selected this time.
Quick question...
Do we post here if we find ingame bugs or issues or email someone specific....???
Let me know, I got a couple of things to mention.
informative I'll take any suggestions I can get :-)
I have tried pretty much all you suggested except removing the router completely. Not really an option for me.
Please let me know how it goes when you reinstall SQL ticking the 'allow remote access' part. I'm going to try a few more things from my end but have exhausted all my options I belive.
Gmisland works yay!
Here are some more mangosd error messages - I think these are saying not all items on the GMIsland vendors exist in the items table probably..
WORLD: unknown spell id 34084
WORLD: unknown spell id 34084
action: 5
Vendor 100008 have in item list non-existed item 192
Vendor 100008 have in item list non-existed item 33338
this is great, got everything working..now i have one question...how can i get to program/designer island?
forgot to mention that each time i try to teleport there, it closes and says wow has encountered a critical error and must close.
#steveo: I just type .Tele GMISLAND
It's full of vendors now. I'm trying to debug the few missing items and find out what they are or replace them missing items with stubs of some sort to prevent the invalid item on vendor errors.
Maybe I missed something or perhaps doing the clean install instead of an upgrade will sometimes leave you missing a few tiny pieces. Not sure yet.
Gonna come back to the outside router can;t get from realm to chr screen issue after I get it running 100% cleanly.
I linked to teh new DB from access odbc and using this query I got this mismatched items list:
Hope it helps. Perhaps we could get the SQL for the missing items?
SELECT npc_vendor.entry,npc_vendor.item FROM npc_vendor Where npc_vendor.item NOT IN (Select entry from item_template ) ;

@Informative
how did u get the vendors to even work?
cause everytime i .addspw a vendor its just not leting me open the vendor up to see whats in it
the vendors #'s 50001-500078 if you are having problems with these vendors (not the ones in the batch for GM island) they are labled as spirit healers which is why you only get a talk icon on them. just a note
on a side note you can change this value using Quice (link given above from Jakalth) it's really useful and easy to use in my opinion. btw thanks for the link it helped. easy fix.
@n1t3
i have quice but how do u change them to be use as vendors again?
I'm having problems playing my own server on the same computer. I keep getting 2k+++++ latency while playing. At the same time my friend halfway across the country is getting upwards of around 100ms. Any answers?
I've tried connecting using 127.0.0.1 , my Lan ip and my public ip i get the same extremely high latency a solution would greatly be appreciated =)
#rocko go into creature tab and lookup "vendor" when you go in to edit the creature look for the "npc flag" click on the ... next to that field and it will give you a list... select vendor from the list, then upload the script. oh you will have to restart your server for the changes to take.
Do you have any internet related programs running? For example emule bitlord... downloading something? youtube? if so turn em off..
and i just created a lot of weapons, but how do i put the in the game.. i got the sql file and the code but how do i put it in the game so i can use em?
Ok i did everything right i ran all the scripts and mangosd.exe and realmd.exe are running without error. I used the Mangos bat to configure my server for LAN use and it wont let me connect on other computers! Please I need some help!! Anone?
no nothing except realmd, and mangosd. i checked all the processes while i was running wow to make sure there wasnt anything running that took up any bandwidth ...no luck with that either = /

If you're using SQLyog or any other program to connect to MySQL open it up, then go press the "+" next to "realmd" to open up the list. Click on "realmlist" and make sure you select the "Table Data" tab. The first line you'll see your server name (Default MaNGOS) then the address. Since you want other people to connect to your server, make sure you got your WAN IP there or your no-ip address in there.
Once thats done save and close it, then go to: "C:\Windows\System 32\drivers\etc" and open up your hosts file with notepad. You should already see:
localhost 127.0.0.1
and some other IP's depending on what your system sets. At the bottom add:
127.0.0.1 "Your WAN IP here"
without the quotes. Save and close and have them try to connect again.

I just finished updating 5005 with 5054 and it updated fine, BUT there are still issues. Mailboxes are still missing and so are the anvils and forges. Also some of the quest items(triggers and such) are missing as well. Is anyone else missing these items as well?
#Rocko: I did a #1 fresh db load and then simply applied the step #7 to add apply the vendor SQL.
@Darlin
Just logged in really quick and Mailboxes are there for me, same with forges, etc.
And you'd have to be specific with which quests so I can check it out.
whats the process in upgrading from 5005 to 5054? How do you import the updates sql tables?
managed to get external connections going by adding my external IP to the realmlist table in the realmd database as explained here http://www.reaper-x.com/2007/07/03/creating-public-server-for-lan-party-setting-up-private-wow-server/
The only issue I see now is when I get home I won't be able to connect from inside my network. I'll troubleshoot that when I come to it.
