Linux Ubuntu + Lampp

[OldXar]

Hey guys,

Ive been trying a whole day now to create an OT server on Linux.
Ive created several servers before but never on Linux.

So I started out with compiling etc, but when I want to run the server with ./otserv Im getting a MYSQL error:

:: OTServ Version 0.6.3_SVN
:: ============================================================================
::
:: Initializing the random numbers... [done]
:: Loading lua script config.lua...  [done]
:: No datadir 'data/', using a system-wide one
:: Using data directory /usr/local/share/otserv/data/... [done]
:: Checking Database Connection... Failed to connect to database. MYSQL ERROR: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)

I have LAMPP (apache + Mysql server) running wich works fine, Im able to access my webserver + phpmyadmin, I can create databases... I also changed my config.lua to the correct settings.

Anyone any clue how I can fix this ?

Because Im quiet new on Linux Tibia OT servers I also have a few additional questions:



I see the server version: "OTServ Version 0.6.3_SVN" for what Tibia client is this ?

Where can I find my tibia world map ? (I see alot of files but cant find my map)

Kind Regards,

nvm my post.

ah and btw, I am strongly recommending you to switch to The Forgotten server 0.4_DEV, since it's the best distro, that's my opinion ofc. And since you are donator, you have acces to SVN. U have to downlaod trunk:
