Running shaiya server on linux?

Is this posible now? mysql works better then normal sql when you think about php right?

is this posible to run on a linux server with mysql ?

This exact same question was asked already, it should be possible, but you would need to convert the database to MySQL (which is something that would take a lot of your time) or, you could just install a VM with Windows and run the server from the VM

nice. you could use [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] yes you have to take one and one of the db. but shouldn't be that hard?

vm why didn't i think about that one. LOL.

again brain.exe stoped working. :.-P

Lol happens sometimes just little updates to the brain.exe once in a while will stop you from having those kind of issues :p

patching brain.exe is good:-) just have to remeber doing that and not just making game patches. just hope brain.exe patches work sometimes..

overflow in brain.exe is a bitch :rtfm:

1) The VM won't work because there still in a Linuxs box..

2) Great you can convert the MMSQL stuff, but now what about all the other Server Files??

There is alot of work to do that..

I think this is a backward way to go about it. Basically your goal is to get everything on one native platform(database/web/game server) right?

Well the database is MSSQL, so both that and the game server services are already native to Windows. Why not use IIS as the web server as it is native to Windows as well?

No conversion necessary and everything can play nice with each other :)

just wondering lunix is just better heheh. well i'll tell if i try it:-)

That's like saying a truck is better than a car, without explaining what you need the vehicle for. They both have their uses and one can be "better" than the other for certain tasks, but not generically speaking.

or you could just set up Q4Wine, and WINE, and Winetricks properly and try that route, or get a full version of crossover for Linux and set it up in it's own bottle. I'm learning these forms of app emulation tend to work better than a Vm because of the GLlibs and whatnot... Plus they've really been expanding WINE to go past Games these days, there's alot of office, networking, and yes even windows based SQL compatibility in WINE...

Just be sure you have all your OpenGL display adapter Binaries, and your proper DX9 dll's installed and good to go before you even think of trying. Setting up client has been a pain in the butt for me with Debian, and Red Hat, however in Unbuntu it was a piece of cake.

You'll want this for the DX9 dll files. and in Winetricks you can install the corefonts, amongst most everything else that you'll need.

and thats it from what I can see.

Depending on your Linux flavor consult your repository for anything else you might need, and look around in the community for ports of the windows varients of what you use now.

:cool:

I spent 2 month's trying to get a shaiya server on linux's and it all failed out horribly, it just doesn't work mate, you can't get the Shaiya service's to run in a linux's bot correctly, and even if you did, I'm sure there would be bug's and lag's to deal with..

then i love the truck's:-) well i feel that linux have more support for stuff then windows. like let's say php. i have been working with linux for years and i just love the server part. even microsoft uses linux servers on alot of there stuff.
mabe it's just me but i feel that linux have the best and easyest server. but the prob is sql i guess. not sure how the server files work tho. but getting a full sql working in linux is the hard part just on the top of my head..
