Hi! I got it to work; I had to go in and re-name my files to .config rather than .conf. Then I renamed them again to .conf and all was right in the world.... Now I'm trying to run two instances of MYSQL and that's a headache....

Scrapped everything, recompiled, Worldserver is working, Authserver is not.

Update: Using configuration file C:/Users/Alexa/Desktop/Wotlk/authserver.conf. Using SSL version: OpenSSL 1.1.1k 25 Mar 2021 (library: OpenSSL 1.1.1k 25 Mar 2021) Using Boost version: 1.72.0 Opening DatabasePool 'auth'. Asynchronous connections: 1, synchronous connections: 1. MySQL client library: 5.7.34 MySQL server ver: 5.7.34-log Connected to MySQL database at 127.0.0.1 MySQL client library: 5.7.34 MySQL server ver: 5.7.34-log Connected to MySQL database at 127.0.0.1 DatabasePool 'auth' opened successfully. 2 total connections running. Updating Auth database... >> Auth database is up-to-date! Containing 1 new and 86 archived updates. Started auth database connection pool. Missing name TOTPMasterSecret in config file C:/Users/Alexa/Desktop/Wotlk/authserver.conf, add "TOTPMasterSecret = " to this file Loading IP Location Database... Missing name IPLocationFile in config file C:/Users/Alexa/Desktop/Wotlk/authserver.conf, add "IPLocationFile = " to this file Is the string Authserver is now creating now that auth DB is installed Databases are no longer installed manually, Authserver and worldserver still wont stay open. Conf files have the appropriate port, IP, username/pass

Update, I dumped Auth/World/Character, rebuilt them with the CLI commands, and started authserver. Auth populated in heidi, now im trying to figure out the others. Edit** Ran worldserver, characters has populated.

Fresh compile on Windows, x64. Used VS16(2019) in Cmake to configure/gen files Build with same I'm at the database install/server setup steps I think I manually installed my databases (as I pulled database to auth, character, world) and I think this may be my issue- I've been researching for a few hours. Authserver does not connect to port 3306 when I have it set to that in MYSQL, I changed it to 3507-- works and will start now.. Auth starts, states it's missing something in the conf files (both in Worldserver conf-- i think-- and authserver conf) Do I need to reinstall my databases and let it populate by itself? Is that my problem? If so I'm not sure how to do that... Forgive me if I'm a little dense. Worldserver also opens, and just says what's snipped below. Also, File set up: Sorry for the large post, just want to be thorough.

hmm.. I made a post
