Your database credentials are not accurate in config.lua

i figured that was it so i went over it a few times maybe im missing something, what information must i change just to get the server online, i have checkedi may be confused about what some things are referring to

serverName

mysqlHost - "27.0.0.1"

mysqlUser - now what does this need to be in relation to what?
mysqlPass - this is the password i changed earlier in this process, right?
myqlDatabase - now this needs to be the same name as my file in phpmyadmin, right?
mysqlPort - "3306"

Okay so i dont have a file named forgottenserver.s3db or an .s3db of any kind in my server folder, any idea why that isnt there?

TFS doesn't use SQLite anymore. its all MYSQL.
The server closing on you instantly is typical behaviour of either not having MYSQL setup and installed, or not having the right MYSQL details in your config.lua file.

Here is a tutorial going through the entire process:
https://otland.net/threads/video-tu...ing-ot-server-website-and-shop-system.166818/

mysqlHost - "127.0.0.1"
mysqlUser - "root"
mysqlPass - ""
myqlDatabase - "theforgottenserver"
mysqlPort - "3306"
​

These details are completely dependant on what you name the database and what user/password you setup in mysql/phpmyadmin that has full access to that database.
Again, the video tutorial above should cover it all.
