Tie servers together with Shop, Currency & Kit

[praise]

So I have 3 servers and the island is my main map that we play on but when someone uses the oby to transfer to Rag or extinction, their points dont go with them. If I have 50 points on the island and use the oby to Rag, I than only have 5 and any other things i add in the json in the arkapi folder on the island, it doesnt add them to the other 2 maps...

Any help please

You need to use the same mysql database for all servers or set the same DBPath in your shop config!

Do I just make up a name and type that in on all the servers?

"DbPathOverride":"C:\\Users\\root\\Desktop\\EXAMPLE\\WHATEVERTHEDBisCALLED.db"

Same path for each server!

Okay... I have 3 servers on PingPerfect and im in the permission folder/config.json folder on my main server.
{
"Database":"sqlite",
"MysqlHost":"localhost",
"MysqlUser":"root",
"MysqlPass":"pass",
"MysqlDB":"arkdb",
"MysqlPort":3306,
"DbPathOverride":"KingArk"
}

Thats what i have in there so far. Am I suppose to have another software to make a DB?

ok i got the phpmyadmin going....
how do i make this happen now? im sooooo new to this lol.

All i want at the moment is when i add something to the json file in the Ark Shop, I want it to do it to all the other servers and my shop points stay when i move servers etc

1. You have to update the json for each server for what you want included in the shop on that particular map.

2. You need to create a database in phpmyadmin , and apply these value to the config file of each server. The plugin will automatically create the table inside the database.

you need to edit the config file in your ArkShop folder which is located in the Plugin directory. The config for mysql in the arkshop folder looks like

  "Mysql":{ 
    "UseMysql":true,
    "MysqlHost":"ipaddress:port",
    "MysqlUser":"phpmyadminusername",
    "MysqlPass":"phpmyadminpassword",
    "MysqlDB":"nameofdatabaseyoucreated"
  },

You need to use MySQL for this. which means you need to install SQL Workbench.

he does not need to install sql workbench. if he does not have a dedicated machine he needs to host his database else where.

I have my computer running this Workbench and it says its running and the database is up and going and i put all my info into the json and loaded my server up and now my shop doesnt work?

 

[Stefanlyl]

because its not that easy. if your hosting mysql on your pc you need do all the port forwarding and everything involved with that
