03 - Setup Local Trinity Testserver

(1/8) > >>

Steff:
Introducing

If you have no access to a root server to test your work, you need a local testserver. To get one up fast and running I have an addon for the modding pack with a precompiled Trinity testserver. The pack includes XAMPP lite and some scripts to get the client files extracted and the server running.


--- Quote ---Note that this server will only work if you have installed the modding pack in part 2 of this tutorial!

>> Download the testserver addon and extract it into your WoWModding folder.

Setup the Server

After you have extracted the server, your folder should look like this.



>> Navigate to

F:WoWModdingTrinityServer


>> Run the script 01setup_xampp inside the xampp folder to configure the xampp environment.
>> Run 02extractClientFiles in the server folder. This will extract the client files for you into the emulator.
>> Enter your drive letter where the modding pack is located and hit return (F for me).

The script will now run all 3 extractors and copy the files into the server directory.
This will take some time, so go and get some coffee :).

Now the server is ready for use

Start the Server

You have to start the MySQL DB, the Logon Server and the World Server in this order.

>> Start the following files.

F:WoWModdingTrinityServerxamppmysql_start.bat
F:WoWModdingTrinityServerServerauthserver.exe
F:WoWModdingTrinityServerServerworldserver.exe

If you now have open 3 black windows the server should be up and running.
Next you need a user to logon to your server.

>> Activate the windows of the worldserver.exe
>> Type ".account create USERNAME PASSWORD" where you replace username and password with yours.
>> Type ".account set gmlevel USERNAME 3 -1" what gives your account administrator rights on the server.

Now you must change your realmlist to your local testserver.

>> Open the following file in an editor and change the content to "set realmlist localhost"

Now open up wow and try to login.

Yes, yes and yes. So.. what could be wrong?

Steff:
And you set to localhost? Not to your real ip or even the outside one. Else i have to look with teamviewer.
