Author Topic: 03 - Setup Local Trinity Testserver (Read 30680 times)

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?

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

Nacho · « **Reply #5 on:** September 21, 2013, 04:28:58 am »

i write: set realmlist localhost

hmm are you sure the server itself is on Localhost as well?

Steff · « **Reply #7 on:** September 21, 2013, 05:34:52 pm »

Yes it is a local testserver:-) i did enter localhost as ip so it run on every system.

Thank you very much for these continued tutorials. Unfortunately, I have ran into a bit of a problem with this one, with the server starting step. When I open mysql_start, it opens normally (and displays messages until "MYSQL is starting with mysqlbinmy.ini"), but authserver.exe and world_server.exe both give the error message that they can't start because LIBEAY32.dll is missing.

Other general info:
-Installed on drive C:/
-I originally skipped part 03 of the tutorial because I wanted to play around a little in Noxxic first, and only came back to this after doing some stuff on the test map and wanting to try it out.
-Not sure if it's just a typo on your end, or if I did something wrong, but I couldn't find a 01setup_xampp file, only setup_xampp (final message "Sorry, but... nothing to do!")
-During the 02ExtractClientFiles.bat process, I spotted a brief error message that got washed away by the flood of messages in the converting phase, so I couldn't copy it verbatim. It was something akin to "can't open rawmodel file build finalbuild.wmo"

EDIT: Solved! Copied the Libeay32.dll file from xampp folder to server folder

Hiho, I habe a problem getting in WoW at the Client335a test. Wenn I want to sign in it tells me that ther was a connection problem and I should try it later again.
I did.. nothing so I thougt about reduing it. When I reacht this
>> Run 02extractClientFiles in the server folder. This will extract the client files for you into the emulator.
It stopt ones and sayd ther was a somthin Pollutet. I hit Enter in it continude sxtracting. Is the problem ther or is it some other problem?

Steff · « **Reply #13 on:** February 12, 2014, 11:14:59 pm »

If the server exes start, it is no problem of the extracted data.
You set the realmlist?
If it still dont work turn of your firewall for test.

Yandrack15 · « **Reply #14 on:** February 13, 2014, 01:11:49 am »

Okay, the problem is the realmlist. I resete the list and I was able to log in. (Not into he Gam, but wher you can creat a Klass and the rest. It just wanted me to Patch up)
I change the realmliist für the Server. Can't log in. Connection probs.
I tried it with the Firewall. No changes.
