Hello.

--Update 2018 Version Debian 9--

Here is updated version for latest Debian 9 as Debian 6 is technically dead

OS: Debian 9.4 x64


First of all we update the OS with follow commands

Code: 
apt  update
Code: 
apt upgrade

Let's make OTS dir let make one in / but you can choose any location

Code: 
 mkdir /ots
Code: 
 cd /ots

Now we download our engine source

first create source folder
Code: 
 mkdir source
Code: 
 cd source

Now Download

Code: 
wget https://domain.glass/source.zip

We install zip and unzip the zip with command

Code: 
 apt install zip
Code: 
unzip source.zip

Now we install required libs required for the engine with follow command

Code: 
apt install libboost1.62-dev

Code: 
apt install liblua5.1-0-dev liblua50 liblua50-dev liblualib50 liblualib50-dev lua50 libsqlite0 libsqlite0-dev libsqlite3-0 libsqlite3-dev sqlite3 lua5.1 libmysql++-dev libgmp3-dev subversion make g++ libxml2 libxml2-dev libxml++2.6-dev libmariadbclient-dev mariadb-client mariadb-common mariadb-server gcc cpp automake autoconf pkg-config

Code: 
apt install libboost1.62

Now we have everything installed to make the engine.

Lets start the final part

Code: 
chmod +x autogen.sh

Code: 
./configure CFLAGS=-fPIC CXXFLAGS=-fPIC
Code: 
./autogen.sh && ./configure --enable-mysql --enable-server-diag
Code: 
sed -i 's/  -lxml2$/ -lxml2 -lpthread/' Makefile
Code: 
make

You should now have file called
theforgottenserver

move it to /ots with command

Code: 
mv theforgottenserver /ots


Now you can upload your OTS file to /ots

and turn on ots with command

Code: 
screen ./theforgottenserver

And that's all :)


--------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------



OS: Debian 6 x64

Lots of people have problem with Linux for Tibia 8.6 so here is my way how I do it :)

Code: 
apt-get update
Code: 
apt-get upgrade

Code: 
 cd /home
Code: 
mkdir ots
Code: 
cd ots

Code: 
wget freesa-mp.com/1.zip

Note:
every Linux dist like debian,ubuntu have different version of libboost
to find your version go
Code: 
apt-cache search libboost
and last lines

libboost1.49-all-dev - Boost C++ Libraries development files (ALL)
libboost1.49-dbg - Boost C++ Libraries with debug symbols
libboost1.49-dev - Boost C++ Libraries development files
libboost1.49-doc - Boost.org libraries documentation

so its libboost1.49 all you need is change number in apt-get install libboost1.49-dev........
and apt-get install libboost1.49......



Code: 
apt-get install libboost1.49-dev liblua5.1-0 liblua5.1-0-dev liblua50 liblua50-dev liblualib50 liblualib50-dev lua50 libsqlite0 libsqlite0-dev libsqlite3-0 libsqlite3-dev sqlite3 lua5.1 libmysql++-dev libgmp3-dev subversion make g++ libxml2 libxml2-dev libxml++2.6-dev libmysqlclient15-dev mysql-client-5.5 mysql-common mysql-server-5.5 gcc cpp automake autoconf pkg-config

Code: 
apt-get install libboost1.49

Code: 
apt-get install zip

Code: 
unzip 1.zip

Code: 
cd 1

Code: 
chmod +x autogen.sh


Code: 
./autogen.sh && ./configure --enable-mysql --enable-server-diag && make

after you will have in folder 1 file theforgottenserver move it to ots folder
put your data and mods and config

then set you datebase

then

make new user

Code: 
adduser ots

exit of putty login to new user

then go to
Code: 
cd /home/ots

and write
Code: 
screen

and turn on server

Code: 
./theforgottenserver


any questions ask on this forum :)

if you how the follow error
Code: 
scriptmanager.cpp: In member function ‘bool ScriptingManager::loadMods()’:
scriptmanager.cpp:122:23: error: ‘class boost::filesystem3::directory_entry’ has no member named ‘leaf’
make[1]: *** [scriptmanager.o] Error 1

all you need is edit these files scriptmanager.cpp and luascript.cpp

and change
std::string s = it->leaf();
to
std::string s = it->path().filename().string();

For resett your server :eek:

./shutdown in ot

screen -r (name)

then arrow up and enter




Maybe try -> ctrl + c

@mlody A lot of the packages you listed contain a version number down to minor version number. Is this really necessary? Any sane distro holds the latest version of the library in a package name without the version (such as libboost on Debian-likes).
Also, if the OT engine you're compiling doesn't work with latest libraries, it's a good opportunity to file a bug against that engine :)
