Trinity needs 4 databases to run at 6.x branch - Auth, Characters, Hotfixes and World: auth - holds account data - usernames, passwords, GM access, realm information, etc. characters - holds character data - created characters, inventory, bank items, auction house, tickets, etc. world - holds game-experience content such as NPCs, quests, objects, etc. hotfixes - holds fixes not already added to the core or other official databases. |
Open your worldserver.conf, go to the "UPDATE SETTINGS" section and set the following settings: Updates.EnableDatabases = 7 |
Copy the two files starting with "TDB_full_" to the directory where your worldserver.exe is. Follow the next steps of the guide and at the first start of the server the databases will be set-up automatically. Do NOT start the worldserver yet. Follow the next steps of the guide first. |
Keeping the DB up to dateBoth core and DB fixes will be committed to the TrinityCore repository, which you may also view in Git Extensions by following the "Fetch" instructions in Keeping the Source Up-to-Date. Pending fixes can be found on our tracker with data from the developers and contributors. It is recommended to stay on the same revision as the TDB_full database (Beginner). Note: You can run the following query on the World database to see your current DB and core revision: This assumes that you have completed the previous steps of the installation guide. Note: If you have made any custom changes to your database, you may wish to backup (export) all three of them (world, characters, and auth) before performing the next few steps. Thanks to the automatic DB updater the single step you have to do, is to fetch a new revision (Keeping the Source Up-to-Date) and the appropriate updates will we applied at server startup.
If your world database is ever corrupted (ex. creatures or objects are accidentally deleted), it is easy to revert it back to its original state by re-importing the TDB_FULL.sql into your world database. If you updated your core using the (Advanced) instructions, make sure you also re-import all of the necessary C:\Trinity\sql\updates as explained above.
