You can then download them from your preferred -package provider (apt-get, emerge, yum, and the alikes). - -When you have all required packages, be sure to properly configure -your build of Trinity Core: - - * ./configure --help - -That command will tell you which config options are available. For -the most part, the following should be used: - - * --enable-cli - * --enable-ra - * --with-mysql - * --prefix=/home/trinitycore - * --datadir=/home/trinitycore/dat - * --sysconfdir=/home/trinitycore/etc - -Of course, replace the paths in prefix, datadir, and sysconfdir -with the directories you wish to install Trinity Core to. The -datadir is where maps, DBCs, and SQLs are stored.

Trinity Core should now be installed. Now you will need to +Once Trinity Core is installed you will need to apply database updates where necessary. Furthermore, you must configure your installation by editing the config files in the sysconfdir. |
