full linux install guide & system req.

OS

CentOS 7 must be used, other versions of the OS are beyond the scope of this article. I tried CentOS 6.x before, the .Net environment was not installed well, and I forgot where it was stuck. Anyway, 6.x is very troublesome, so it is best to use 7.x The installation of the .Net environment will be very smooth, and the official has done 7.x Very good support.

PostgreSQL

A version >= 9.3 must be installed, the previous version does not support the following syntax:

CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXIST

Will cause startup failure

2019-07-03 09:41:01,673 [1] DEBUG Npgsql.NpgsqlCommand [(null)]-Executing statement(s):
CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS data

Unhandled Exception: Npgsql.PostgresException: 42601: syntax error at or near "NOT"

This document talks about the syntax of CREATE SCHEMA, you can cut to 9.2 to look at it, and found that IF NOT is not supported .

Install PostgreSQL 9.6

I originally wanted to install 9.3, but I found that this version is also very old. I can’t find the tutorial on the Internet. Only one link is invalid. So install 9.6 directly. This is tutorial.

After installing according to the tutorial , you will find that you can’t login. There is one step missing. After the installation is complete, you must first set a password for the postgres user:

#Step 4: Accessing Database
passwd postgres
# then input you password twice
su – postgres
psql

Set public network access

Modify postgres password

Change the password authentication method to md5

Install .Net environment

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/learn/dotnet/hello-world-tutorial/install

sudo rpm -Uvh https://packages.microsoft.com/config/rhel/7/packages-microsoft-prod.rpm
sudo yum update
sudo yum install dotnet-sdk-2.2
dotnet

Compile

Pull the code first

git clone https://github.com/MUnique/OpenMU.git

The current code needs to modify 1 csproj file to compile correctly: https://github.com/najoast/OpenMU/commit/de3d3234ca5713b36e39e0cd84bebdacb6e7f3a7

Run

There are two ways

1. Enter the OpenMU/src/Startup directory, dotnet run -autostart -demo
2. After compiling, enter the OpenMu/bin/Debug directory, dotnet MUnique.OpenMU.Startup.dll -autostart -demo

Thanks but what about cpu ,ram ? i want start 97d version game server.On my vps.Far away in 2006 year I run on windows XP 97d+msql2000 on 1gb ram.What about this files?

[sven-n]

Some people had it working on the cheapest DigitalOcean Droplets. So I assume, it works on low end machines without problems (for an unknown amount of players...). It's not optimized for RAM usage, though. So after start, it takes about 400 mb of ram, because it caches a lot of things for best performance.

i get this error

[sven-n]

@rursi can you try it again? I updated some involved nuget packages.

maby add .sh install scripts? for debian / ubuntu distro u know debian and ubuntu very popular? Most popular like yours redhad slave centos !!!

Use docker, it is way easier to use and it is distro independent

Thanks but what about cpu ,ram ? i want start 97d version game server.On my vps. ...

So does this repo contain 0.97d version as well?

[sven-n]

@mradkov not yet. Currently, it has support for 0.75, 0.95d and 1.04d (Season 6)

[sven-n]

I'm closing this now. At the moment I can just give the hint to use docker-compose for deployment, as it makes things much easier. Creating (and maintaining!) guides for all kinds of linux distros just takes a lot of time and energy. If you want to do that, you can send pull requests, though.
