Updating the Server Software

It is very simple to make an update on an higher version of plasma-servers.

IMPORTANT: If you install the 0.38.10 Version of the Server you have do download the AuthServer Patch too, to fix the VM Bug. How to update the AuthServer, read below.

  1. Login your server as root
  2. Shutdown the MySQL Server and the gameserver
  3. Go to your gameserver-directory (e.g: /usr/local/games/plServers)
  4. Uninstall the gameserver by runing:

    ./uninstall
  5. download the 0.38.9 from cyanworlds, using wget e.g:

    wget http://plasma.cyanworlds.com/cgi-bin/pick.cgi/plasma-servers/plServers-0.38.9.run
  6. browse to the directory where the runfile lies and install it like the old version:

    ./plServers-0.38.9.run
  7. Start MySQL and gameserver
  8. enjoy

Only 0.38.10

  1. Download the tar.bzip2 patch for 0.38.10 in the plasma-Download area. unpack it with {{{ bunzip2 filename.tar.bz2

}}} and {{{ tar -xf filename.tar }}}

  1. Browse to the folder, which is the servers OS (Linux or FreeBSD)
  2. copy the file in it to your Server binary directory (e.g. /usr/local/games/plServers/bin) with {{{ cp filename destinationfolder

}}}

That's it KlyX
