What you need¶

Ubuntu basic knowledge¶

You might need Ubuntu basic knowledge to adapt the Virtual Machine to your needs.

If you can't stand "vi", install "nano".

VirtualBox¶

The Virtual Machine¶

It's an english Ubuntu Server LTS 10.04 x86 based Virtual Machine.

Settings¶

VirtualBox¶

Click on New to create your Virtual Machine.

You will need about 1.5Gb of memory (RAM + swap).

By default, the Virtual Machine is using a 1Gb swap file, so you will need to declare at least 512Mb of RAM in VirtualBox.
If you want to remove or change the swap file, follow that wiki:

http://dev.ryzom.com/wiki/ryzom/MemoryToBuildLinuxServer

Logon¶

You can log on the Virtual Machine using:

user: ryzom

password: ryzom

If you need root access, use "sudo".

Networking¶

By default, the Virtual Machine is using the following static ip:

192.168.1.100

gateway:

192.168.1.1

and DNS

192.168.1.1

You can connect on the Virtual Machine using "ssh" and "sftp".

If you want to change the ip and gateway, edit:

/etc/network/interface

If you want to change the DNS, edit:

/etc/resolv.conf

But don't forget to update FSHost in:

/home/ryzom/ryzom/code/ryzom/server/frontend_service.cfg

MySQL¶

You can access to the MySQL server using:

user: root

password: ryzom

You can use PHPMyAdmin too:

http://192.168.1.100/phpmyadmin

with the default ip.

Running the shard¶

To run the shard, connect to the Virtual Machine using the "ryzom" account, and use the following command:

shard start

To stop the shard:

shard stop

Ignore the various warnings.

You can monitor your shard using the webtool:

http://192.168.1.100

with the default ip.

Connecting a client¶

If you don't have a client, use that one (windows):

https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B3LX3q7MsUEGN2UwMGY3MjAtYzlmZS00Yjg4LTljYTgtNDA3MmFiNWQ1Nzg5

Edit client.cfg to match your server ip:

StartupHost = "192.168.1.100:40916";

with the default ip.

That's all folks!!!
