Question
Talondale
Hello,
I'm just now getting back into Mangos after a long hiatus. Had a private family server going before on a Windows machine for the kids and I to play on but after a while for various reasons I let it lapse and we just played on one of the excellent private servers available. Now I'd like to build a Vanilla version for my family to play on again. This time I thought I'd make it more complicated by using a Ubuntu server. J/K. I have a PowerEdge 1800 server that I got from work but didn't have any supporting software with it so after many failed attempts to loading Server 2003 I decided to try Ubuntu server and that installed flawlessly. To make it more complicated I started my install on a laptop first with Ubuntu desktop so I could work on it across high speed network at work. (I'm an IT ) My familiarity with *nix is limited to basically one college class 10 years ago (Red Hat at the time). We are pretty much a Windows shop at work so I didn't pursue it much further. All that background just to set up what I'm dealing with.
As for the install: I followed the MangosWiki Linux install instructions posted on github. The first part went pretty well. There are some parts that could use clarifying or maybe it's clear to full time Linux users. Mostly when the instructions changed from one directory to another I wasn't certain if we were talking about a sub-directory in the current directory or a different directory at a different level but I think I got all that figured out.
The main problem I ran into was with the compiling the extracting tools. It seems now you use ccmake which I had to edit to use find_package (BZip2). I also had to copy config.h file into scripts folder. After that the cmake ran and gave me 100% Built target mangosscript.
My questions: What do I do now? The directions mention moving four binarys into my client folder. I can't find any of those files mentioned (ad,stormlib,vmap_extractor,vmap_assembler) even though the compile worked. Also, once I get this all working on the laptop, is there any easy way to move this all to the PowerEdge? I suppose I could export the SQL database and import on the PowerEdge. Could I also simply copy the Mangos folder as well or does it need to be all done again on the server?
