MaNGOS 6245 (UDB + PSDB), ScriptDev2 r474

Hello everyone! Its Colt45! I am glad to announce that MaNGOS Rev 6245 has been release (finally)! I am terribly sorry to inform you that I do not have a list of new feature that have been added to this release, but I should have a complete one for the next release. So here is the guide:

THIS GUIDE HAS BEEN BASED OFF OF OATMAN’S LAST GUIDE, PLEASE GIVE THE CREDIT TO HIM FOR THE GUIDE!!!

Step 1:  Install MySQL using the guide here >>>  (MySQL Installation and Configuration) 

NOTE: It does NOTmatter which verion of MySQL you get (either 5.0 or 5.1) as long as you do not get any older versions or beta versions!

Step 2:  Update your DBC’s, VMAP’s, and MAPS for 2.4.2!

If you already have your DBC’s, Vmaps’s, and Maps from a previous release that uses client 2.4.2 then you DO NOT have to re-extract them. If not then you must follow the Readme.txt files located in the extraction folders.

Step 3: Download Reaper-X-MaNGOS (below are list of mirror to file).

Links updated to the recompressed version (19.49MB) that use 7zip self extracting archive instead of zip compressed file

1. MediaFire Download

2. RapidShare Download

3. FileBeam Download

2.4.2 Maps:

Thanks to Davtex for uploading the maps and vmaps files

These files should still be compatible with this release

Custom Vendors Pack for this version

Credits to Firane for creating the Custom Vendors Pack

Updated GM Command List for this version

Fresh Install:
Important Note : Fresh installation will overwrite your database

1. First you’ll need to install MySQL

2. Extracting Maps, DBC and VMaps from your World of Warcraft installation
Note: ad.exe included in this version will extract the dbc files and maps files, and so all you have to do is just put the ad.exe into your wow installation directory (for example, C:\program files\World of Warcraft) and run the ad.exe from there. But make sure to delete the maps and dbc directory if exist before running the ad.exe

3. Run the reaper-x-mangos.bat inside the reaper-x-mangos folder, and you’ll see something like below image for an example, and then you just need to write the full path to your mysql installation directory (where mysql.exe and mysqldump.exe can be found) ;)

MySQL Bin Image

MySQL BIN Image

4. Selection Option 1 by pressing “1&Prime on the keyboard and pressing enter.
Note: This will wipe out any previous versions of WoW you have in your database.

MaNGOS Batch Menu Image

Mangos batch menu

6. After finished with all of the above process, all you have to do now is just open the realmlist.wtf file in your World of Warcraft installation directory (the default location can be found at C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft) using Notepad, Wordpad, or your favorite text editor and then …

Replace :

set realmlist us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com
set patchlist us.version.worldofwarcraft.com

With :

set realmlist 127.0.0.1

and then save it and close realmlist.wtf File.

7. Now you just need to run mangosd.exe and realmd.exe from your mangos directory and then the next step would be creating your own username with your desired password for your own WoW server account as shown on below image followed by typing setgm to give yourself a GM level account

 Mangos.exe Image

Mangos EXE

By the way, 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

to give yourself GM Access at certain level (3 is the highest level and should only be used on your account while normal player is 0)

8. Finally if you have Burning Crusade client installed and want to be able to create Burning Crusade specific character, all you have to do is just type :

setbc username 1

to enable burning crusade expansion for your account :)

Upgrading from 5953 Release:

1. This release still supports your 2.4.2 DBC’s, Maps, and Vmaps, so if you want to re-extract you may but I dont think there is much need.

2. Go into your WoW Reaper Server Directory, and open reaper-eazy-mangos.

3. Open the Folder called “Upgrade” and run Reaper-X-Upgrade.bat.

4. Next type in the directory to the Bin Folder where your mysql.exe and mysqldump.exe files are located. (Default is C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin)

5. Then make sure that you are upgrading from the latest previous version or else you WILL corrupt your database and possibly lose your character data.

Update Batch Image

Updated Batch image

Guide on how to Edit Mangos.Conf
Thanks for the Mangosd.conf edit guide Jeremy!

First off make sure that you have your MySQL running before doing anything.

You need to go back into the reaper folder (C:\Reaper-X-Easy-MaNGOS\reaper-eazy-mangos)
And run the batch file called reaper-x-mangos, there is an option there to setup your LAN or IP for use, This new batch file does correctly setup your DB to the IP you enter in this batch file. Once you’ve done that, if you haven’t gone back in to edit the config files in your reaper folder mentioned above, you need to do that, there is a section in there with this.

# Data directory setting.
# Important: DataDir needs to be quoted, as it is a string which may
# contain space characters.
DataDir = “C:\Reaper-X\data”

In this release your DataDir is pre-set to C:\Reaper_MaNGOS_6245_SD2_474\Data  which means that if you extract the folder directly to your C Drive then you will not need to configure your DataDir, but you will still need to set your ROOT and PASSWORDS as shown below!

This is an example of what it may look like. You need to change this to the path where you put your data folder with the maps, vmaps, and dbc’s.

Second, …

# Database connection settings for the world server.
# Default: hostname;port;username;password;database
# .;somenumber;username;password;database - use named pipes at Windows
# Named pipes: mySQL required adding “enable-named-pipe” to [mysqld] section my.ini
# .;/path/to/unix_socket;username;password;database - use Unix sockets at Unix/Linux
# Unix sockets: experimental, not tested
LoginDatabaseInfo = “127.0.0.1;3306;ROOT;PASSWORD;realmd”
WorldDatabaseInfo = “127.0.0.1;3306;ROOT;PASSWORD;mangos”
CharacterDatabaseInfo = “127.0.0.1;3306;ROOT;PASSWORD;characters”

Above, you need to change the MANGOS;MANGOS to your root DB name, likey it’s just root, and YOUR database (DB) password (you should know this)

YOU DO NOT CHANGE THE IP’S here or in the realmd file, ONLY THROUGH THAT BATCH FILE, i mentioned above. (that file does it for you)

Next open scriptdev2.conf and realmd.conf and edit the info for them to connect to your database as well.

    i have a wee problem i cant figure out howto fix can someone help me..

    ive setup all my files correctly, my ports are open as ive checked them when running the realm and mangois .exe files. but im unable to connect and so are my friends..

    i use a no-ip url and i DO NOT have a router.
    so i dont have a lan ip. only an external ip. which is configed for my ip.

    all i get it the handshakeing screen it wont go past it..

    all the "ip" parts point to my no-ip domain and my site for WoW loads. and shows the server online and stuff.. but for some mental reason we cant connect.

    my hosts file in windows says 127.0.0.1 xxxxxxx.servegame.com

    if i change it to my IP then the mysql says it cant connect. ive read the guides over and over, and it is setup as it should be.. any idears ?

    If you want to host on a lan make sure you change the realmlist table address (found in the realmd db) to point to your servers lan ip instead of 127.0.0.1 and add this

    localhost

    to your \windows\system32\drivers\etc\host file using notepad...for example...

    192.168.1.42 localhost

    You continue to use localhost everyone else on your lan would change the realmlist.wtf to

    set realmlist

    e.g. set realmlist 192.168.1.42

    If you want to host on the internet get a address from https://www.dyndns.com or http://no-ip.com. This is more secure than giving out your external ip. This goes in your realmlist table address(found in the realmd db) Make sure you ADD to your \windows\system32\drivers\etc\host file the following

    e.g.

    192.168.1.42 localhost
    82.61.204.112 my.game-server.cc

    IF YOU HAVE A ROUTER MAKE SURE YOU HAVE PORTS: 8085, 3724 AND 80 OPEN AND FORWARDED TO THE SERVER IP OTHERWISE YOU WILL HAVE PROBLEMS CONNECTING.

    I strongly advise against changing 127.0.0.1 entries in the files to your no-ip address as this just adds lag to your server
    by forcing the system to translate from the host file for every request and is totally unecessary!

    @colt45/reaper/oatman
    also included say that the vendors only work with UDB.
    I don't use PSDB so i didn't feel like converting them to PSBD
    unless they already work
    in that case i haven't tried it

    Thanks for writing that guide out, lol or I would have had too :P but anyways PSDB is just another database, writen in a differant way, but still gets you the same results as UDB, but I have no experience with PSDB nor does Oatman. Reaper is the only one I believe has any experience with it.

    @Firane
    Hey and ya I understand but I don't believe many people be using PSDB, so its not a big problem.

    i get the lan setup and stuff, but i dont have one. i dont use a router i just use a normal connection to my isp..

    at my dads i had it and it worked no problem..

    but at my flat i dont use a router or netwrok so i dont have a lan ip.

    The last vendor pack created some opportunities for expoloit, for example two of my players found vendors that "sell" items for 0 cost then buy them back for good gold (specifically, these were Gem vendors, but I found others when I investigated by a pair of 10th level characters had arena gear).

    Q: Was this what you fixed in the new vendor pack?

    Thanks for the work on this, much appreciated!!

    Great! Would be handy to know what rev Oatman used on the 5953 release, but I can just do a r1 to r17 log. I am pulling the changelog info out of the SVN commit notes for all four products.

    ACID is at http://sd2-acid.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/sd2-acid?view=rev&revision=17

    I will have a full changelog for all contents posted in about an hour.

    All,

    I have compiled the changes for Mangos/UDB/ScriptDev2/ACID between ReaperX 5953 and 6245 into one handy place:
    http://firedogsweb.game-host.org/reaperx/

    Note that these are core changes made to the above products by their developers,and do not include any custom work (such as Firane's vendor scripts or changes made by the re-packer). I would be happy to include these changes if desired.

    Feedback appreciated, flames ignored.

    @Jimmy
    Your need to edit your .conf files! "candy9" is the test password I used when testing th release, so change that to whatever your MySQL password is.

    @Bob
    Alright did you extract all your maps, dbcs, and vmaps? If so did you place them all in one folder? Now if you did those thibgs above then open the folder where maps, dbcs, and vmaps are located and look at the top of the window (it should say something C:\Pserver\Data or something like that) copy and paste it into your mangos.conf file where the DataDir line is!

    Oh i know exactly why this happenned, you guys used the full udb core, which says this.
    "*/;

    --
    -- Table structure for table `areatrigger_involvedrelation`
    --

    DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `areatrigger_involvedrelation`;
    CREATE TABLE `areatrigger_involvedrelation`"

    and it says that for EVERY table.

    Ok, so I upgraded to the newest version but whenever I try to run mangosd.exe it comes up with a bunch of errors. First is the item error

    Item (Entry #) not correct 21 inventory type, must be 13 (still using DB value)

    Then there is a creature template error.

    Error in creature_template table, probably sql file format was updated (there should be 64 fields in sql).

    Any help would be apreciated, thanks :)

    One question:
    I have been using these releases a long time now (since november 2007) and i ve been upgrading most of the time, lost my chars once or twice mostly by my own fault.
    I have been really careful for the last upgrades and i haven't really lost anything except one char getting stuck in the blacksmithing quests chain so i had to reset it.
    This is the question, I am using the auction bot and i m really fond of it. If I upgrade to this release from 5953 will the auction bot char be lost for good? Will it be retained in the database for the next release (when u say it will be included)? Or will i get a corrupted database then?
    One remark as well:
    I really appreciate your work guys but maybe you should decide on a fixed set of features (database, extra stuff) and do upgrades when those are available. I mean i haven't gone public with my server and still i ve put a lot of work in some of the chars i got, i hate to lose them once in a while so i like a steady environment

    Keep up the good work, seems the team is expanding (reaper-x, oatman, colt45)

    Tried the update from 5953 then got this error when mangosd was run:

    Loading Creature templates...
    Error in creature_template table, probably sql file format was updated (there should be 64 fields in sql).

    I guess the update doesnt work or my db was already corrupted.

    backing up and restoring after a clean install did not work well. I got to start mangos with errors.

    another bug for now.... anytime a mob runs in fear (ie. running low on HP) instead of just running away in fear - he casts "fear" on himself like the priest spell

    couple that with most world mobs running thru the ground (i know first release is always buggy)
    its just kinda funny

    they usually go die somewhere where i can't loot em

    That is nothing (no error completly normal) it just means that it set your CPU to run mangos as a priority.
    , allowing it to run faster

    Make a Map in your servermap like this

    C:\server\Data
    Go to your Mangosd CONF and change it to this.

    DataDir = "data"
    LogsDir = "./Logs/"
    LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;realmd"

    MaxPingTime = 30
    WorldServerPort = 8085
    BindIP = "0.0.0.0"

    And change mangos,if you use a other password
    "127.0.0.1;3306;root;this->mangos<-this;characters"

    Okay then start up Mangos.exe / bat of whatever.
    and it will work with some error ;D but if you dont wanna have some error!!
    Go to UDBforum and Releases 10.3 Kite Dragon, download it and set it this udb in (YOUR MANGOS SQL )with your sqlyog or navicat lite then start it up agian and NO ERROR!.

    Hi guys,

    Well done Colt good job buddy!

    i've got a couple of things i need help with if thats ok?

    firstly, i think i have a error in the code, but i wanna bounce some ideas if thats ok? when i ran the upgrade from the previous revision i had a couple of errors and it ceased half way through, no problem did a fresh install all good, (i think its cuz i let my players have custom items etc i dont think the update liked those) anyway all was working, but i exported some data from the old install (which i think is whats caused this problem) the data i exported was things like the account info etc because i didn't want to reset up the accounts for everyone.
    Now my problem is this, whenever anyone creates a shaman a dreary or Tauren they seem to think they are a totem, they keep repeated casting and it wont stop even if the toon dies, once the command is used .learn all_myclass thats it they keep casting over and over, would it be an idea just to delete the database and start again or is there a quick fix ie a value change i can do in one of the tables?

    also what tables would i need to export to save the players account and toon data? (it was what i tried b4 and seemed to screw up?

    many thanks

    :)

    PS @BigMarky i did notice in magisters that the doors show a cog and will open if you switch into GM mode, so they can be opened that way, not sure how to fix it though, but they will open. ;-)

    @89 easy as pie m8.. but u will have to make a custom launcher. if you edit the launcher.exe file with a hex editor. and search for

    0007ff55h: 68 74 74 70 3A 2F 2F 6C 61 75 6E 63 68 65 72 2E ; http://launcher.

    0007ff75h: 6E 2F 00 ; n/.

    and edit it as you see fit. if your address is longer your screwed, if its shorter just use 00 at the end. ie...


    0007ff55h: 68 74 74 70 3A 2F 2F 6C 61 75 6E 63 68 65 72 2E ; http://launcher.

    Hey guys, and thanks for all of your hard work. Blizzard has released version 2.4.3 that is no longer working with my Reaper-x Mangos server 5953, so I upgraded to version 6245 Mangos... Still no luck on connecting to the server now from the client. I keep getting errors on the client that says I have a version problem go see WOW's FAQ's on the problem. Do you guys plan on making a release that is compatible with Blizz's 2.4.3 ??? Thanks again!

    @allykiller

    heya, what i tell all my guys to do is to make seperate copies of there wow folder to be able to log into the server, basically once it patches up you cant log in (as you've noticed) my best advice is if you make a copy of your wow folder and try to uninstall the 2.4.3 patch, i'll admit i'm a lil hazy as to whether you can do this, or the hard way, reinstall from scratch in a new folder and patch from one of the links on wowwiki up to 2.4.2 and hey presto bobs your aunt and martha's your uncle jobs done!

    unless anyone else has a better way?

    Like Allykiller, I'm having a version problem when trying to connect to my private server after updating WoW to 2.4.3. I'm given the following message:

    "Unable to validate game version. This may be caused by a file corruption of the interference of another program. Please visit http://us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?articleid=21370 for more information and possible solutions to this"

    Just giving you more information so the next version can be as problem free as possible. Thanks guys.

    i've been having a problem with the server i made on lan. whenever a character enters a certain area(durotar, a little under orgrimmar, don't remember the name) the game crashes, and the player can no longer use that character(will log in and crash again). what could cause this? i've had this problem in 5953 version and now in 6245...

    First of all HOLY JIMOLE (had to use a more apropriete word :P) I leave for 12 hrs and like 10 diferant people have errors! I hope I can answer them all!!!

    @Chris
    Its is just a pack like custom vendors but with custom items, and attackable monsters instead.

    @Gazeroth
    Some anti-viruses are a little jumpy, it is most likely because mangosd.exe connects with other players, so Anti-Virus may pick it up as a potential threat, tho it is not!

    @DSH
    Glad you got everything fixed!

    @Shadox
    I am waiting for a UDB update before I release the next one, but as for the random dieing... I would type .gm on (makes you un attackable) and try to see what is attacking you tho i have never heard anybody else have this problem!

    @Glock
    I do not believe this is possible yet, tho you might wanna google it and see if other people have figured it out.

    @Allykiller $ Matt
    Yes 2.4.3 is out. We are aware of that but mangos doesnt support that patch yet, so for the time being do what Bav101 told you.

    @Nixname
    Ive have never heard of this problem, but if this error happened in both of the releases you tried then it is something with your computer most likely and I cannot really help much.

    Heya Tomb,

    The problem is when the server loads it cant find the maps you extracted earlier, thats the basics, the fix is easy,

    heres how i did it, I copied the folders with the maps in ("maps" and "vmaps") into the data folder (the one with the DBC one in) then modified the line in the mangosd.conf to read

    DataDir = "F:/Mangos/data"

    and then it works :)

    hope that helps buddy.

    @Perix: You're welcome!

    @Shadox -
    It's the Imp belonging to the Warlock trainer. I have had this problem on my server since I started using ReaperX. Here's what ya do:

    Log in with a GM account, in chat type .gm on then go to the place where the trainer is. Press TAB. This will select the nearest hostile creature. Verify that you have an imp selected, then in the chat type .npc delete
    This deletes the spawn for the imp, so it wont come back (unless you upgrade and new sql's add it back in).
    I had to do this at EVERY warlock trainer with Reaper 5953 and earlier. Havent gone to 6245 yet, so cant vouch for that, but this is what you described.

    I would like you guys to know, in case no one else has said anything yet, the portal to The Hall of Honor in Orgrimmar is blocked off, so it cannot be accessed to look at the PvP gear. I also cannot .tele to it. The alliance Champion's Hall in Stormwind is fully accessible by running into it. I cannot .tele to it either.

    Also, sadly... Guardian's Chain Sabatons don't exist in this version. /hunter cry

    Another little piece of info for you, if you stand outside the door in question (the one outside the Hall of honor) and type .gobject delete 11140 it will delete the door, best guess would be till the next reboot of the server, then you wont have to open it or be in GM mode to access the area.

    in reference to my previous post, #117, i deleted and re-extracted all maps, vmaps, and dbc, and placed them in the reaper main folder, and put the reaper folder in the recommended location, C:\.
    All this to no avail. Again i'm playing a tauren hunter. More specifically, the weapons vendor in thunder bluff doesn't train anything, no staves..nothing. the weapons trainers in orgrimmar don't work at all either. when you click on them they just say some silly message like, "are you just going to stand there or do you need training".
    when you get around to making the next update, please fix these trainers..

    reaper makes a repack meaning he takes files from different sites compiles them and then gives it to u all in one bundle to make it easy
    if you really want to report bugs then u cant post them here
    for core issues : mangosproject.org

    Inside your reaper folder
    you should find a file called mangosscripts
    if the file size is around 300kb it means that u have no boss or instance scripts at all
    if its over 1mb then u should have most instance/boss scripts
    so if its 300kb then u can try re downloading the repack
    besides that idk

    I have all the maps, vmaps and dbc folders sitting in e:\WoW and can see the file it's complaining about and am hesitant to re-extract them considering it's a fresh install.

    Yeah. I had stopped playing WoW ages ago and uninstalled the game completely... so I reinstalled the game and patched it, then went about the steps to install the private server starting with SQL, then extracting maps, dbc and vmaps folders and configuring the mangos package.

    Is there something I've missed? Should I have just downloaded the maps package linked above instead?

    Sounds like you've patched it to 2.4.3 i think, try uninstalling the 2.4.3 patch and re-extract the 2.4.2 maps and hey presto all should be sorted, short of that uninstall and reinstall the client and only patch to 2.4.2 and extract all should be sorted :-D

But when I try to install and run the extrat-map.bat file it says "another program is currently using this file." Can anyone help me with this. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall mangos and mysql repaired WoW and still having this problem. I am following the instructions on the 5005 web page and have not found anyone else with this problem in the forums.

    @ TimR,

    I have had this problem before with previous versions. You don't have TBC (burning crusades) expansion installed do you? If so or if not then goto your mandosd.config file and change this:
    # Allow server use expansion content
    # 0 (not check expansion maps existence, not allow wisit its, not allow create new race characters, ignore account expansion setting)
    # Default: 1 (check expansion maps existence, and if client support expansion and account have expansion setting then allow visit expansion maps, allow create new races character)
    Expansion = 1 <- Change to 0 instead of 1

    Save it and it should fix your issues...

    thanx man..didn't know reaper just packs those 3 things together..thought he created them himself, which i always found impressive.

    i've rolled back my sql to release 5953. i'll wait until 2.4.3 is live and packed up, because i'm currently running kara and don't want to mess up my progress.
    happily, all the instance scripts do work up to bt, with the exception of old hillsbrad (buildings are already burning, so i can't complete that quest), so sunwell is the only raid i found wasn't scripted in 6245.

    otherwise, great job reaper, oatman, and others! keep up the thorough work! :D

    ps - i love equipping anything i want by using .lookup item x (x being whatever i want) and using .additem to add it to my invent

    BEST items to play with: picnic, seasonal costumes, fireworks, raid mounts, and the greatest & cutest pet to own: MURKY!!! (gotta look him up by typing murloc egg)

    running raids to view the scripts is a lot of fun, but the custom items such as those mentioned above, among MANY others, make private servers worth having!

    thanx again reaper!

    Sorry I meant to both of these into the same post, accidently posted two times.

    Firstly lookup the creature name/id via.

    .lookup creature

    then add the creature

    .npc add

    If you happen to spawn the wrong creature, just click on the creature that is spawned. and type

    .npc delete

    For any of the others that are having problems keeping track of all the commands, and running them. There is a very easy yet powerful add-on you can use for your GM's. My GM's and myself use it for easier use.

    http://code.google.com/p/mangadmin/

    On the right side there is version 106 out released today, its updated usually almost daily/weekly, and very easy to understand. It also run the same and installs the same as the others Add-ons. So just extract this into your interface/addons folder and enjoy.

    Hey, I've got the server installed and running and overall it works really well. I've just noticed a few bugs and broken abilities and was wondering if they're known issues with the release or if I've just screwed something up.

    Just a couple of examples are:
    Blink rarely works and when it does it can make you fall through the world.
    Arcane blast debuff doesn't actually decrease the cast time (the tooltip is adjusted but it doesn't actually work).
    Devastate doesn't apply sunder armor, just refreshes.
    Rampage refreshes oddly by itself, but when you cast it again (with it still up) it resets the changes to 1.

    If anyone knows a way to fix this kind of thing, please let me know.

    First, I don't see step 5 listed above, the directions are kind of confusing for Noob like me.
    Second, I tried this twice last night (second time because I though I made a mistake) and it failed both times. I'll get an exact copy of the error message, but it stated that it couldn't connect to mySQL.
    Third, when I ran the reaper .bat file, it asked for the mySQL user name (most likely "root"). I guessed and put down root as the user name, is this correct?

    Mangos Project just released version 2.4.3 today. So its only a matter of time for Oatman, and Colt 45 to upgrade us :)

    @ Striike

    The missing step #, its just a number pretend 6 is 5.

    Now its saying its not connecting to the MySQL server. it's most likely cause it can't find the MySQL folder. When i download MySQL and it installs It's usually 5.0. The Reaper-x usually has it set up to find folder for 5.1. The different in MySQL is too small for you to notice so that is fine. Hopefully you installed it into the default location. c:\Program Files\MySQL Server 5.0\bin After that just hit enter,that will find the required MySQL programs to install the databases and tables.

    When you are talking about the username, if you don't know your username. It mostlikely when you installed MySQL you didn't change the user, so its 'root' but default (without the quotes). The password though is your part.

    For those of you getting "field 63 or 64" errors on the SQL Creatures table....chances are you are accidently running the old 5953 mangos.exe instead of the 6245. Probably you're launching an old shortcut on your desktop and didn't update it.

    I understand what you are saying about the step numbers, its just in previous versions step 5 included some database building (or something to that effect). Once again, I'll try it tonight, and if I have trouble, I'll post better description of my problem (I'm posting at work atm).

    Alright, that sounds good. If you have any problems, i will be online most of the day and will be viewing the site about once every 30 minutes. So I can check on updates for the server, and posts. Hope it works out. If not, try opening My computer, and manually find the mysql bin folder. like i said in the above post that you will most likely are linking to the wrong location. If the problem consists still you most likely fastest and easiest way to get it working is uninstall mysql and reinstall it, making sure your using root and then setup your own password for it. Might have accidentally changed the username during installation, you can change it, but by default its root. I program with PHP5 and MySQL on a regular basis, and i still use Root. Thanks.

    aura question... I'm using Quice to edit both the Creature Template Addons and Creature Addons so that they should be visible only if someone has a particular aura.

    eg.. you should have aura 8202 (Sapta Sight) to see the mob 5891. However, when applied it doesn't seem to work... the creature is always visible.

    Can anyone with experience with this type of thing show me what the correct settings are to ensure a creature is only visible if a player has a specified aura?

    Definitely not in GM mode. And just to be on the safe side, I created a non-gm account (setgm=0) and created a completely new toon.

    I can definitely see the mob, even though the Creature Template Addons aura field is set to 8202 (and I don't have that buff).

    Ok, this is what I've had to do so far to fix my problem.
    1. Open and edit mangosdCONF file, open and edit realmdCONF file changing candy9 to my password.
    2. Edit mangosdCONF file so that it looked for .map files in the wow\data folder rather than c:\Documents and Settings\Ken\Desktop\Reaper_MaNGOS_6245_SD2_474\Data/vmaps which is where it was pointed after install (who is Ken, lol)
    I pointed out the above as just an fyi, can't believe no one else ran into this before me, or maybe its just obvious to everyone but me, I am new at this.

    I am stuck at the following point, I'm assuming its because I have 2.4.3 installed and this release is for 2.4.2? Error message follows:
    Some required *.dbc files not found or not compatible: E:\wow\data/dbc/spell.dbc Wrong client version DBC file?

    I am just making sure I did everything correctly up to this point. I am about to re-instal windows (going RAID0), so I'm not too worried about getting it working just yet, but I want to go full out in a couple days. I am anxiously waiting the version compatible with 2.4.3. Sorry for the long post.

    Guys, I've set up a server that my friends can connect to with the intent of doing a little PvP against each other and maybe see some new content (we all quit ages ago due to time factors). However, some of the abilities seem buggy and I've noticed that most of the bosses I've done are different too... is this normal and if so is there a way for me to fix it?

    I'm just trying to work out if my database is corrupt or if I should be looking for ways to script events and reprogram skills. Has anyone been down this path and fixed some of the bugs?

    Hey i noticed when you said they you link it to location c:\Documents and Settings\Ken\Desktop\Reaper_MaNGOS_6245_SD2_474\Data/vmap you do notice that \Data/vmap as in your changing your pathing from a location location to a remote. the slashes need to all be the proper direction. Umm you could also where the path leads to "blah blah blah" just change it to "." that sets it to the current location. Umm secondly also, when your gathering the vmaps and maps, etc. Yes you need to have the correct version of the client that matches the server capability. Good news is, MaNGOS released a 2.4.3 version today, so we are just waiting on a upgrade from Colt45 and Oatman :) Sorry for the issues. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.

    First off, thanks to Reaper-X and Colt45 fr their great work on these releases. I have the host machine running 6245 and working great on it's own. However when I try to log on from another machine (running vista on both) on the lan, I can log in, get to the realm selector screen, and when I click 'okay', it says "Logging into game server" for about 1 second, and then it kicks me back out to the realm selection window. If I click 'cancel', I can go back to the login screen. Got any ideas? Also, do you have a tutorial on getting everything set up so you can access the server from outside the network by chance? Thanks in advance!

    Please disregard the previous posting...I seem to have figured it out somehow...I was trying to use the directions for running from a domain name that I had made...then decided to try my IP since it's been static for as long as I can remember...and voila! Success, even from the outside!

    You guys saved my butt My kids addicted to WOW have been hounding me but we live in a rural area and the best internet connection is satellite. with a 2 min latency playing WOW online is impossible. So I set up a private server and it has been great. I have run into a few bugs but for the most part great Job guys. Thank u bunches.

    Ok so here it goes I have been having a problem with the 2.4.2 Hord side of the database as far as I know When my character tries to train for mount the trainer tells me he can train me for the right amount but fails to give me the option to accept. and yes my character is 40th level. Second the weapons masters fails to do the same. this all seems to be centered around Origrimmar city. Out side the City is fine. is this a data base issue and do I need to recompile or is it a mangos issue?

    I followed the directions and found them very easy to implement. Great job! But I have a problem with the WoW client. It gives me the following error:

    "Unable to validate game version. This may be caused by file corruption or the interference of another program. Please visit http://us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?articleid=21370 for more information and possible solutions to this issue."

    Hi,
    can anybody send me his dump of scriptdev2 database? My db is empty and I can't find dump of it. There are many revisions sql updates, but 99% of them are for mangos db. Somebody's dump would help me very much, thanks.

    Ditto MValkar's comment the orc riding trainer in Orgimmar doesn't teach riding like he ought to. I've not done this in while so if anyone has the GMIsland vendors handy maybe you can point us to where we can grab a SQL to insert to add them back to this release.

    On the comment looking for script2dev I thought it was included already but need to reload SQLYog before I can browse the database easily to confirm that.

    Everything else so far seems very blizlike. Even the hunter pet quest worked! wow.

    Dude do what I did download the maps and Vmaps you can still find the link on this page. down load all the parts then extract them. I always double my effort to make sure I did it right. When I extracted the maps from the client I checked them against the down loaded files to make sure and the count was the same. Did you use the extractor on an upgraded version of your client? if not, of course you will be missing maps. Make sure your client is build 2.4.2.

    open the mangosd.conf with notepad or something and the stuff in the squares tell what your soppused to do
    just edit these and configure the rest as u know what to do
    for e.g
    DataDir = "<where your maps/dbc/vmaps/buildings are"
    LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;;realmd"
    WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;;mangos"

    @Colt45

    thank you, there are a few quest/skill related things that are broken in this release, at least one of which is the paladin quest sets, which i have never gotten to work
    tome of the divine
    tome of valor
    and the rest of the progression for alliance paladins
    in fact, none of the 'heal this person' quests seem to work properly...
    2.4 all_myclass command adds a lot of misc./test skills, i wouldnt reccomend using it, there are however, some of the skills for WotLK in the DB that were mentioned on wowwiki
    there is an imp spawn in the bloodelf starting area that is hostile and high enough level, that i cant bypass it without using artifacts or the .die command
    there may be more bugs, but i dont want to be a total ass right now, thank you for the release Colt45, if not for the Reaper-X team i wouldnt be able to play WoW anymore as someone stole my account when i was in chemotherapy

    OK. I've got ManGoS up and running, and I changed the realmlist.wtf file in my WoW driectory so it says set realmlist 127.0.0.1 but WoW is still only connecting the Blizzard's servers. How do I get it to use my private server instead, because editing realmlist.wtf isn't the answer, there has to me more.

    Not to sound like a noob, because this isn't the first version of the private server I've set up, but what version of WoW does this server run with? I have the patches up to 2.4.3.8606.

    Also, a friend of mine on Windows Vista is trying the same thing, he installed WoW and updated it to 2.4.2, ran the ReaperMangos file, then copied ad.exe into the WoW directory, but it hangs at 41%. Any ideas why?

    Along with the ad.exe, in the readme, it says create a folder but does not give the name of the folder. What is the name it is supposed to be?

    Is now enjoying WOW for free, and the next step is setting up my own LAN server, for when some of my friends are dropping by. ;)

    But keep up the good work! It certainly means a lot for guys like myself. ^^

    As an another attempt to get the maps, I tried to download them from the provided links above, got parts 1 and 2 just fine, part 3 is a broken link.

    Well, got the server up and running and am very impressed on how much of the game is playable!! good work to everybody who made this possible. For the most part the game runs fine with just minor little glitches here and there.

    While most of the glitches i have seen are minor (like mobs walking through walls, or appearing above or imbedded in the ground) I have also run into 1 annoying glitch and 1 appears to be broken quest.

    1. For ranged mobs, if I attack them first, they run up on me and attack me as a melee mob would, trouble is, there seems to be a disconnect between the client and server for these types of mobs, when the mob dies I cannot loot it where it fell, I must find where it would have been had it been attacking me ranged. This glitch only happens if I attack the ranged mob first, If I agro them and then let them fire first, then they stay where they are and work correctly.

    2. For the night elf, crown of the earth quest. on the one you have to fill the Tourmaline Phial at the Pools of Arlithrien, It will not let me fill the Phial, I have tried from many places in and around the moonwell but it keeps telling me that I need the moonwell to fulfill the quest.

    Is there any to finish this quest?? either from a location that will meet the requirements or else a way that I can set something in the database (or GM command) that will allow me to mark the quest as completed?

    Any help with the above issues would be greatly appreciated...

    Thanks again for making this fantastic server available!!!

    hi guys, first of all great job.
    i like all in one packages :)

    i have a question.

    im trying to get my server online.
    i have set my server on dmz so all ports are open to it.

    but when i try to connect to my server from somewhere else its says cannot connect.
    this is what i have done:

    realmlist has this: set realmlist 2hard4wow.no-ip.org

    and the server has all the mysql and ip bind to it as well but i still cannot connect to the server. not even when im on the same lan.

    but when i change the realmlist to: set realmlist 192.168.1.114 (server ip)
    it then works.

    why cant i get it online? if you need server configs i could mail it.
    if someone succesfully got his server online please let me know what you have done and maybe show some configs.

    Thnx in advance.

    ok got it working, found out that the vpn connection i made a while back ago had its own firewall on it.

    so i removed it and the ports where opened.

    but now i have another question. do other people have problems with getting xp past level 40? because i now even set the xp kill to 300 to even get some xp but nothing happens.
    chars before level 40 get xp fine.

    what is wrong? is this normal in wow? or is this the server? because in the payed wow i could not get past 43 so i dont know.

    need help!
