Help with rAthena server setup..

[Pink Guy]

I bought a server IP host from Asurahosting and had a new, clean rAthena server setup'ed. I changed the IPs in char conf, map conf and checked if I needed to change IP in login conf but wasn't necessary so I didn't do anything. I tried to run my server but after 2-3 secs, the 3 windows would disappear. I checked the log folder and in the logs of map server it says "http://rathena.sourceforge.net/tools/diff_patcher.php" can someone help me with this? I haven't encountered this problem before and apparently, asurahosting doesn't offer client side support so they can't help me. If you can help me, I would appreciate it.

can you provide more information? like any errors shown? or screen shot?

Did you even Compile for the first time?

be sure too add the correct IPs and Username / PW for your SQL DBs in the inter.conf

[Pink Guy]

oh.. I forgot about the inter.conf... anyway, why would I compile my server? I haven't ever run it even once

Also, do I need to change these...

sql.db_username: ragnarok
sql.db_password: ragnarok

with my username and password in char,map,login .conf? (not sure which one has it)

and do I need to change sql.db_database: ragnarok? no, right?

no whith the Password and Username from your SQL , you should make a new User for your ragnarok SQL DBs.

edit: here you can read all about the SQL instalation

Hi Instinct,

I recommend that you just watch the video demonstration on how to properly set up the rAthena service on YouTube; it's fairly quick and easy.

Nvm, I fixed it already. Thank you for your help anyways.
