The Mana World Forums

I followed this linux setup guide exactly on the wiki and successfully got an eathena tmw server up and running.

http://wiki.themanaworld.org/index.php/ ... a_on_Linux

However, when I went in the game I noticed there were many errors such as:

-No skills showed up
-I couldn't warp to other maps
-Couldn't job change
-Many gm commands didn't work

Then I came across these guides:

http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=6401
http://wiki.themanaworld.org/index.php/ ... stallation
http://wiki.themanaworld.org/index.php/ ... mwserv.xml

which explains how to make a database and an xml file, but the wiki didn't mention anything about a database or xml file.

So what is my problem? I am familiar with Eathena as it has two modes that it can run on txt files vs database. Do I need to install a database?

The last three links you posted are specific to TMWServ (now renamed ManaServ) and are irrelevant for eAthena servers.

Our eAthena runs in flatfile mode, so you don't need a database to clone our setup.

Your problem has to be somewhere else. Unfortunately I can't help you any better because I lost track of the latest eA changes in the last months.

Oh so those are for Manaserv, is ManaServ the real server that will replace eathena? Or am I missing something here?

Do you have any suggestions on what I could do to solve my problems? (Compiled wrong? Missing scripts? Bad setup? Wrong configs?) Did I miss a step while setting up the Eathean tmw version?

Should I use ManaServ instead?

None will. No skills currently implemented can be leveled from the gui.

aethynyc wrote:-I couldn't warp to other maps

No warps are working? Remember, not all building have interiors yet.

aethynyc wrote:-Couldn't job change

We don't use the class system.

Did you give yourself that power when setting up?

Depends on what you're doing.

Well for the warping I tried @warp 1 or the town name (which is still labeled as the ro towns in the eathena ver) and it didn't work. I was trying to get to some of the maps like the snow one I saw in the wiki.

If i recall on the real mana world server there were some basic skills on the menu?

It seems I am missing information on what exactly can and cannot be done. Is there a guide or wiki page that has more detail about this?

#1 I want to create a private server to test it out (see how everything is, get familiar with the maps, systems, etc)
#2 If good, to ultimately customize tmw and create a playable server.

Try map names like 001-1, 011-5, etc. Full list here: http://wiki.themanaworld.org/index.php/Map_development.

The basic skill was removed. The reason for it is described in our client news and the news forum.

2 sensible ways to go here:

1) Fix the eA client to work with the latest eA (ours is from 2004, badly broken, no working database support and tweaked a lot).
2) Help develop ManaServ to a point where this is possible.
