SIMPLE ALL IN ONE: From nothing to a fully working dedicated server on Ubuntu

Edit again: I'm a totally idiot. Kids, remember to check if you are REALLY copying all the data pack and CHANGING THE MAP INSIDE CONFIG.LUA

Hi, everything works fine but for some reason, my town table only has 5 random towns, instead of the normal ones. I'm using the globa map.


What this causes is that if a player has town_id >= 6, it will say: Your character could not be loaded.

How to fix it?

What I already did:
1. config.lua with correct mysql credentials
2. config.php from the znote aac with correct mysql credentials

Hi, I have created a VM using Hyper-V with Ubuntu 20.04 and the installation of the script worked just fine. The problem I'm facing atm is that I'm receiving 'Your character could not be loaded'.
I'm able to create the account and my char list appears in the client. I just can't get into the game itself.

What I did:
1. Started the server
2. Open tcp/udp ports of 7171 and 7172

I've tried to search with this query(Your character could not be loaded) in this topic but I found nothing.

@edit sorry I'm dumb, it is related to the town id that the website was creating the character

@edit2

If anyone ever comes to this problem, be advised that:
1. You need to have the data pack inside your data folder. Download one from the forum
2. After that you need to build it, see on Github forgottenserver
3. You also need to look because the website has wrong town ids. To do so, just log in into your phpmyadmin

It install master branch by default, which is the closest to TFS 1.3 you can get.
 
This page really goes years back but really good information. Learning Ubuntu and it serves the best basic.
 
@Don Daniello Is there a way to use gdb logs with this? I mean before the auto restart start the server i would like to start it with gdb, there is one problem with the server and we want to know from where comes the problem. Thanks

Have idea for this problem ?
 
How do you create a .com using this? I notice there is a hosts file in ansible folder but it doesn't seem to do it.
 
I think .com depends on your domain preference, just buy domain from google domains or something, and set your IP etc within their website, right? I don’t have experience with Ubuntu so I could be wrong and look like an idiot. Itutorial you have MUCH more experience than I do with OTs etc, so maybe I’m missing something obvious here.

You can set up a .com for free with apache2 on linux. Some of the apache systems aren't the same because of the way this method works. So I am missing the files that you would normally use to create the .com. You don't have to buy a domain to host a .com.
 
As I said, I was probably missing something obvious, ty for the explanation :p
