Setup Server

From L2J Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

In order to Setup the Server you must have downloaded and installed the required programs. Find them here: Setup Preconditions


Downloading the Files

In order to Setup the server, you must have the L2J Server and Datapack.
You can either download the nightly builds or the source code from SVN using Eclipse.

-Guide for Eclipse/SVN
-To get nightly builds: forum link


Setting up the Files

1.) Make a Folder named L2J Server or whatever you may like, this will host all of your files for the server.

2.) Extract the entire contents from the 2 .zip files (Server and Datapack) into the folder you just created. Open youre folder and you should have some sub-folders names login and gameserver, and some other files and folders.


Installing the Database

1.) You should have MySQL and Navicat installed. Open Navicat.

2.) Click on Connection, you will see a couple of text boxes, fill in your MySQL information and click OK.

The Defaults are:

Connection Name: localhost

Host Name/Ip Address: localhost

Port: 3306

User Name: root (change if you did not make root)

Password: none (fill in if you did make a password)


3.) You should now have connection named Localhost under the connections table. Double click it to open the connection.

4.) Right click on Localhost and click New Database. On Enter Database Name, put L2JDB. Click OK.

5.) Your database is now setup and ready for installing, and you may close Navicat.


Putting the Data into your Database

1.) Open your folder than contains your server files.

2.) Open the folder named "Tools" and open database_installer.bat or .sh (If you are doing this on Linux).

3.) Do a full install, enter your information, and if you want you can install custom tables.

4.) After its done press any key to close and the Data is in the Database.


Registering a Gameserver

1.) Go to the main directory of the folder that contains your files.

1.1) Edit your MySQL settings, in this file: login\config\loginserver.properties

2.) Open the folder "Login" and open RegisterGameServer.bat/.sh

3.) Choose a number for your server and hit enter.

4.) Now, copy the file hexid(server 1).txt

5.) Now go back to the Main Directory.

6.) Open the folder "Gameserver" and the open the folder "config".

7.) Paste the file hexid(server 1).txt and rename it to hexid.txt

8.) You have now registered the gameserver with the loginserver.


Editing the Configuration Files

Part 1: The Login Configuration

1.) Go to the main directory of your server.

2.) Open the folder "Login" then the folder "Config"

3.) Open Loginserver.properties and open it with notepad.

4.) Here is what you need to change:

Opening Ports in your Router

Here are the ports you need to open:

1.) 7777 (Gameserver)

2.) 2106 (Loginserver)

3.) 3306 (MySQL)

4.) 9014 (Listening)

And you are done with ports.


Setting the PATH for Java

1.) Open Control Panel

2.) Open System and go to the Advanced tab.

3.) Click on Environment Variables

PATH

In order to run Java programs from anywhere, the files javac.exe java.exe need to be included in the path system.

REPLACE X.X.X With the Java JDK you Have.

Windows NT/2000/XP: path "C: \ JDKX.X.X \ BIN" for the PATH variable.


CLASSPATH

Java needs to find classes in Java, which is where CLASSPATH comes in.

Windows NT/2000/XP: classpath "."

4.) You are now done.


Congratulations!

Everything is now setup and ready to run! All you have to do now is:

1.) Go to your Main Directory, open folder "Login" and open startLoginServer.bat/.sh

2.) Go to your Main Directory, open folder "Gameserver" and open startGameServer.bat/.sh

Have fun Testing/Playing your new L2J Server!
