Hey guys,

As my title say i need help with setup Private world of warcraft server on OS: Linux Ubund 14.4.
I already have public server hosted on Windows OS.

I installed VMware on my Local PC, and i setup a Linux os (Ubund 14.4), i think that is a good os for host a wow server.

I need some information about setup wow files on linux os:
- Is it same system runing wow server as on windows? like open MYSQL (as a program), same with auth and worldserver.exe?
- Witch programs do i need to compile wow source? like on windows cmake, MSV....
- Is ther any way to i run programs as Navicat or HeidiSQL as a program (i mean without useing some creazy commands, i know that works linux)
- Where do i need that files add? like on windows, my files are on D drive.

Here is preview of my Linux, Ubund 14.4

Im quite sure you can find the required software here:
http://collab.kpsn.org/display/tc/Requirements

Also that includes the mysql installation so no need to set up some other one.
Also you may prefer a mysql GUI, but by default you already have mysql cli which you can use to execute stuff to the database.
If you want the GUI you can easily google something up. An example would be mysql workbench which seems to have linux version and its free.
most likely mysql is installed as a service by default so it is always on. May depend on the settings you install it with.
You would place your files to basically anywhere just like on windows for example: ~/Server

There are no .exe files executables are named a bit differently (do they even have an extension?)
You start them in the command line with ./worldserver

It's easier to configure and compile via commands like (xterm). You can still do this in the desktop of course.
Also be sure to add a user account specific for the server, and keep the files in its home dir /home/user/, so when
you cmake, you would make your install prefix to /home/user/server. If you take a peek at LMLS and view
the code you can get an example of how I do it.
