Linux Server Rebuild (3/1/13)

[LordAdakos]

To compile and run a linux server (assuming 32 bit debian/ubuntu) (please let me know if I'm wrong about anything - a lot of this info was ripped from other guides, and X's and Proskeptics scripts)

Are these the proper steps?


1.Update host kernel info

cp /etc/sysctl.conf /etc/sysctl.conf_original
grep -v "kernel.shm" /etc/sysctl.conf | grep -v "TJL" > /etc/new_sysctl.conf
mv /etc/new_sysctl.conf /etc/sysctl.conf
echo "# added by TJL - 2012-02-27 for eqemu" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
echo "kernel.shmmax = 134217728" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
echo "kernel.shmall=65536" >> /etc/sysctl.conf

2.apt-get updates/installs

apt-get clean
apt-get update
pt-get -y install git git-core gcc g++ cpp libmysqlclient-dev libio-stringy-perl
apt-get -y install zlib-bin zlibc unzip make cmake subversion
apt-get -y install libmysqlclient-dev libperl-dev mysql-client-5.1
apt-get -y install mysql-server

3.make dirs start git

mkdir -p /home/eqemu/server/logs
mkdir -p /home/eqemu/source
mkdir -p /home/eqemu/server/Maps
mkdir -p /home/eqemu/server/quests
mkdir -p /home/eqemu/server/plugins
mkdir -p /home/eqemu/server/shared

cd /home/eqemu/source

git clone git://github.com/EQEmu/Server.git
svn co http://projecteqdb.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/peqdatabase
svn co http://projecteqquests.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/quests
svn co http://eqemumaps.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/Maps

4.copying things

cp -r /home/eqemu/source/Maps/* /home/eqemu/server/Maps/
cp -r /home/eqemu/source/quests/* /home/eqemu/server/quests/
chmod --recursive ugo+rwx /home/eqemu/server/quests/
cp -r /home/eqemu/source/quests/plugins/* /home/eqemu/server/plugins/
chmod --recursive ugo+rwx /home/eqemu/server/plugins/
cp /home/eqemu/source/Server/utils/defaults/commands.pl /home/eqemu/server/
cp /home/eqemu/source/Server/utils/defaults/plugin.pl /home/eqemu/server/
cp /home/eqemu/source/Server/utils/defaults/worldui.pl /home/eqemu/server/

5.SQLs

mysql -u root -p*PASSWORD* -e "drop database if exists peqdb; create database if not exists peqdb;"
gunzip peqdb_rev*.sql.gz
mysql -u root -p*PASSWORD* -f -D peqdb < /home/eqemu/source/peqdatabase/peqdb_*.sql
# that might take a little time -- just under two minutes on my machine...
mysql -u root -p*PASSWORD* -f -D peqdb < /home/eqemu/source/peqdatabase/load_player.sql
mysql -u root -p*PASSWORD* -f -D peqdb < /home/eqemu/source/peqdatabase/load_login.sql
mysql -u root -p*PASSWORD* -f -D peqdb < /home/eqemu/source/peqdatabase/load_bots.sql

6.Move things

cd /home/eqemu/server
cp /home/eqemu/source/Server/utils/defaults/eqemu_config.xml.full eqemu_config.xml
cp /home/eqemu/source/Server/utils/defaults/log.ini .
cp /home/eqemu/source/Server/loginserver/login_util/login.ini .
cp /home/eqemu/source/Server/loginserver/login_util/login_opcodes.conf .
cp /home/eqemu/source/Server/loginserver/login_util/login_opcodes_sod.conf .
cp /home/eqemu/source/Server/utils/patches/*.conf .

7.compiling and relocating files

# Fixed that they need the crypt files during the single make, not after. X
# These are the 32bit crypt files - 64 bits commented out inline.
# Switch comments for 64-bit OS. (Different process for GIT-based 
compile - X)
#
cd /home/eqemu/source/Server/dependencies

# 32 bits
wget -c http://projecteqemu.googlecode.com/files/ubuntu_LoginServerCrypto_x86.zip

# 64 bits
# wget -c http://projecteqemu.googlecode.com/files/ubuntu_LoginServerCrypto_x64.zip

rm -rf libEQEmuAuthCrypto.a
rm -rf libcryptopp.a
unzip ubu*.zip
#
# Added CMAKE section, to be able to use make later on. X.

9.priv settings, kill script

chmod -R ugo+rw /home/eqemu

echo "killall eqlaunch world zone loginserver " >> /home/eqemu/server/killeq.sh
chmod -R ugo+x /home/eqemu/server/killeq.sh

10.Config EQEMU_CONFIG.XML

Set Shortname, longname, host, database, etc.

10.is it done?

#ON
echo '! /home/eqemu/server/startup.sh !'
#OFF
echo '! /home/eqemu/server/killeq.sh !'

99.TO DO

I need to test this, see if it works, see if I'm missing anything. I feel like I probably am.
I also need to make this more friendly to read, I threw a lot of script in there
I'd like to turn this into an actual guide at some point to help newbies (like me, admittedly)

[lerxst2112]

One way to find out is to try it and see.

Step 5. gunzip peqdb_rev*.sql.gz

needs to include full path to peqdb

[Dimorge02]

I'll post current steps for patching database if you want.

yes pls, tyvm!
