Server 1.0.1 --> Server 1.0.2

[Azis57]

Hey! I am new at this forum!

Several days ago i bought hosting for my server. Automatically i had MTA 1.0.1 files on my FTP. Its Race Mod server. All worked good.

But now i want to move my server to new MTA 1.0.2! I searched everywhere how to do it. I looked MTAwiki, this forum, other resources, but didnt find anything how to do it.

I wanted to save my server, thought that i have to change some files. But, because i didnt find any instructions, i removed all files on my server ftp and add new MTA 1.0.2 files, made all settings.. but server didnt work...

Pls say me how correctly update server? I need to know it, because in future i want to move it to MTA 1.0.3.

What i had to do? Only change some files or what?

1. Create and navigate to the directory you want to install MTA to.

2. Get and decompress the 1.0.2 Linux server package:

wget http://linux.multitheftauto.com/dl/multitheftauto_linux-1.0.2.tar.gz
tar -xf multitheftauto_linux-1.0.2.tar.gz

3. Get and decompress the base config:

cd mods/deathmatch
wget http://linux.multitheftauto.com/dl/baseconfig.tar.gz
tar -xf baseconfig.tar.gz
cd ../..

4. Get the resources either with subversion, or by unzipping them:

Svn method:

svn export http://multitheftauto-resources.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/required mods/deathmatch/resources
svn export http://multitheftauto-resources.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/required mods/deathmatch/resources
svn export http://multitheftauto-resources.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/required mods/deathmatch/resources

Unzip method:

wget http://multitheftauto-resources.googlecode.com/files/multitheftauto_resources-r490.zip
unzip multitheftauto_resources-r490.zip -d mods/deathmatch/resources

If you don't have svn or unzip on your system, you'll have to install one of them. On Debian the commands are:

apt-get install subversion
apt-get install unzip

5. Due to the exciting nature of MTA development, you are now required to set the server IP in the mtaserver.conf.

If you do not know the server IP you can set it to 0.0.0.0

<serverip>0.0.0.0</serverip>

6. You can now run MTA by typing:

./mta-server

To start running in the background: (use kill to stop)

./mta-server -s &

Notes:

Any complaints about missing stuff can be resolved by installing the missing stuff. On Debian the commands are something like:

apt-get install curl
apt-get install libpcre3
apt-get install sqlite3
