Configuring and running Ryzom Core server on GNU/Linux
For Debian/Ubuntu users you will need to install the following packages:
sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 php5-mysql php5-gd rrdtool screen |
code/ryzom/server/frontend_service.cfg
to your address (e.g. 192.168.0.1). If you set up server on different machine, remember it has to be address that's reachable on client host.If your frontend service is available through a firewall using NAT and a mapped IP address this is how you can advertise that external IP address. For example if your FS is on 192.168.1.100 internally but your firewall maps 74.125.225.210 through to your FS you would want to configure FSListenHost to be the address the clients connect to: 74.125.225.210. |
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
) for the login scripts and admin app (replace DocumentRoot with your own path).For current Ubuntu versions you can just edit the file default in /etc/apache2/sites-available/ - substituting what is listed below for what is already there. It may be helpful to break this into multiple site configuration files but isn't necesasry. |
Don't forget to change the paths used below to match where your source is checked out! |

In order to execute system commands like restarting services you will need to be able to log in as root or execute the command using sudo, e.g.: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart |
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

The configuration files in
expect your user to be named 'shard' with NO PASSWORD. If you decide to use a different name for your MySQL user, or assign it a password, you will need to go through the files and change these values from 'shard' and "" wherever they appear. (they appear in several .cfg files) Since this (and a password) can lead to unexpected errors (eg. error '4000') it is best to make sure everything works correctly with the defaults first. |
If you are getting strange errors some config files may have Windows editor "control-M" endline characters, which appears as a blue ^M in vim. You can remove it with this vi command, noting that ^M is typed by pressing Ctrl+V followed by Ctrl+M:

Ryzom AMS now includes auto install scripts for the mysql database, all you have to do is load your DocumentRoot on port 80 that was setup above, for example http://127.0.0.1
A page will load that looks like the below, type in your mysql root user/pass.
The installer will by default setup permissions for the user "shard" if you want to use a different user you will need to run the below sql statements.
GRANT ALL ON nel.* TO newuser@localhost; GRANT ALL ON nel_tool.* TO newuser@localhost; GRANT ALL ON ring_open.* TO newuser@localhost; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; |
If you're running on Ubuntu or Debian, the default shell is actually dash and the shard/screen scripts will not run correctly in dash. The steps following will have you switch to bash. If you want to keep using dash as the default shell then you will need change the shebang from /bin/sh to /bin/bash in the following files:
|
Great screen how-to at: http://www.rackaid.com/resources/linux-screen-tutorial-and-how-to/ |
# if you're on Ubuntu or Debian - disable dash: [[ `lsb_release -si` = 'Ubuntu' ]] || [[ `lsb_release -si` = 'Debian' ]] &&\ # Change your selection to 'no' so it uses bash instead. sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash echo "export RYZOM_PATH=/home/user/ryzom/code/ryzom" >> ~/.bashrc source ~/.bashrc echo "export PATH=$PATH:$RYZOM_PATH/tools/scripts/linux" >> ~/.bashrc source ~/.bashrc |

To make the shard start on boot use the below init script, you will need to change "export RYZOM_PATH=/home/username/ryzom/code/ryzom" to your path
#!/bin/sh # chkconfig: 235 99 10 # description: Start or stop the Ryzom Core server # ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: Ryzom Core Shard # Required-Start: $network $syslog # Required-Stop: $network # Default-Start: 2 3 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Description: Start or stop the Ryzom Core server ### END INIT INFO
export RYZOM_PATH=/home/username/ryzom/code/ryzom export PATH=$PATH:$RYZOM_PATH/tools/scripts/linux
start="$RYZOM_PATH/tools/scripts/linux/shard start" stop="$RYZOM_PATH/tools/scripts/linux/shard stop" lockfile=/var/lock/ryzomcoreshard name='Ryzom Core Shard'

For user administration and ticketing you will need to Setup the AMS
If you want to use your shard with the core client, you will have to copy the following file into code/ryzom/common/data_common:
