You have to download the applications from the internet.
MAMP, MAMP Pro, and Navicat

[sidebrok]

FIXED THE MISSING FILES PROBLEM
google mangos download then download it. make the missing databases then run the sql file by right clicking it and execute. it will be named the same as the database

[nintendog78]

Only 3. Fix?

[konkan2]

same here i have only 3 instead of the six:( please help

[konkan2]

you can download the opt folder at http://www.mmowned.com/forums/world-of-warcraft/emulator-servers/guides-tutorials/65041-mangos-mac-old-guide-but-should-still-work.html just scroll down then you see the link MEGAUPLOAD... :)

second pic says: this is where the data ____ is. it is where you can add custom gear, items and people, manage accounts and more stuff like that. he just wants you to double-click the mangos

[hatehatehate]

Go www.google.com and type Download libmysqlclient_r.15.dylibthat than u can find it the second one is the right one :D

[colorme2]

I can't even find the application in my applications.... Anyone have an idea why?

[Metroid10]

i know everyone has already said this but I CANT FIND THE opt FOLDER!!!

[Metroid10]

when i test the conntection, it says:

Connection Failed
Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1' (61)

What should i do?
Before i entered the Port as 8889 it was 3306. does that change anything?

[digger514]

i cant make the second pic bigger because i need to have a pro account but i dont ahve one

[zaqwsxcderfv]

 you dont need a pro account you can make it bigger if you have a free account

[Nastan]

I have made a working Mac Private server instructable at www.instructables.com/id/How-to-make-a-World-of-Warcraft-Private-Server-on-/

[relbel111]

 Same, Terminal will be like "Command Not Found" But I dont have Mango's, I use Navicat with MacPack, HamachiX and ArceMux

[boaskater]

 i only have three instead of the six

[boaskater]

 where do you find the opt file with mangos-world in it

[boaskater]

 i have everything right except i can't find the opt folder

[bob1a2x]

There should be a file on the desktop called libmysqlclient_r.15.dylibthat is included with macpack. Open and install it.

[konaru]

I get the exact problem as everyone else! I can't seem to fix it :( If ANYONE and i mean ANYONE!!! could help me with this that would be awesome!

[DjFluorescent]

press control ^{and scroll wheel on mouse to zoom> (mac users)}

[Firedanger]

Yeah, same as these guys are saying. Step 5 happens without a hitch, but there is no opt folder or mangos folder anywhere on my hard drive.

[ArcticMunkii03]

In the bin folder under rcemu I have arcemu-crashreport arcemu-logon server and arcemu world I am really confuzes what have I done worng

[smallmammal]

I found that if I went into the MySQL pane of MAMP and uncheck "Allow local access only" then it fixed the problem. :)

[Astatinexmime]

Why can't I find Mamp in the applications folder? I can only see arcemu in machintosh hd. Help plz

[partycrasher101]

Im having the same issue as everyone else here. Does anyone know what is going on?

[osborne2510]

I hit Test Connection and It can't connect to 127.0.0.1, I've done everything right

[partycrasher101]

i had that problem to but it turned out i forgot to change the port from 3339 to 8889 it worked after that.

[aragork]

okay I found some things here
Download MacPack at Cnet ...
then for this step you will need Maps youll find them at :
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Q6EK82YC

(I'm not sure of this but you certainly will need this ... :P)

[l ll llll l l ll]

I cannot seem to find anything that is required in this step, i have done everything else up to this step without any problems ... any help?

[liplol]

The username and password is "root" connection name: mangos host name/ip address: localhost port: 8889 For those of you who cant see it.

[Alfonta]

Uhhh, the macpack download doesnt work, help.

[Alfonta]

[Salmon99]
