Missing SQL tables - how to create them

Post by igneus »

I downloaded Elven Programmer's nightly builds of tmwserv and 0.1 client for Windows and started both account server and game server. The client can connect to them, but it is impossible to register - client always says that the chosen nick is already used, but according to account server log it is due to another problem - table tmw_accounts doesn't exist. Could anyone tell me how to create this table (and possibly other ones which I need to have my own experimental TMW server)?

You will find a precreated database file in src/sql/sqlite/tmw.db. Just copy it into the same folder where you have the accountserver executable.

Yes, we are aware that this is not the best solution and we are currently working on a more comfortable one.

Thank you. The Elven's nighly build doesn't contain src/ directory, but I copied the database from the SVN repository and it works.

Best not to use the included DB, as its out of date. If you have sqlite installed, you can use the script in the same folder as that db to create a new one.

Are you sure that it is out of date? The last revision which updated the script also updated the tmw.db.

Didn't notice that part. When I set up a 0.1 server two weeks ago, I was told to ignore the pre-built one.

The pre-built one is up to date and is nothing more or less than the executed createTables.sql script. It is just another option for e.g. windows users that don't have an sqlite3 executable available.

btw. have a look at the wiki page for setting up a new server:

or especially for database configuration:
