Second Server or Test Server

[Ninja]

Hi.

I have a live server and I want to create a second server for testing purposes only. The server will be GM Only.
Also I want to login from the same IP, 2 different gameservers (Bartz - Sieghard) and to have 2 different DBs.
If this is possible can somebody please tell me how can I do that?

Thanks.

Just register your 2nd gameserver on the loginserver, on an available slot. Pretty much the same you had to do for registering your other server.

As for the database, just create the new one with a different name.

I copy the DB I have in my live server to another DB with different name. Then I registered a new gameserver and saved the hex id into the 2nd gameserver (test). I edit the requestedserverid in server.properties to 2 and I run the gameserver.

Is not working.
FATAL: Failed to open server socket. Reason: Address already in use: bind
Damn! Registration failed: Reason Wrong hex id.

I did something wrong?

Did you change the gameserver port in the 2nd servers configs?

7778 or something else on your second server and you are done.

not just port, you need to change the GS server.properties file from
# Database URL
# URL = jdbc:mysql://localhost/l2jdb (default)
# URL = jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost/l2jdb
# URL = jdbc:sqlserver://localhost/database = l2jdb/user = sa/password =
URL = jdbc:mysql://localhost/l2jdb
to
URL = jdbc:mysql://localhost/YOURDATABASENAMEHERE
