Database Setup

Post by DevSquallz »

I am wanting to setup an Arma 3 server and need a database for things. How would I set this up?? I want the server to be Altis Life.

This would depend on what type of service you have. If you have webhosting with us, MySQL is already setup. You would just need to create a database. Though from my understanding, Altis Life makes use of stored procedures which our MySQL doesn't support.

Your best bet would be setting up MySQL and your game server on an Unmanaged VDS.

Alright. How do you create the database and stuff, though?

It depends on if you are starting from scratch or not. If you are starting from scratch, you'd need to download, install, and setup a MySQL server.

The MySQL website has extensive documentation on database creation.
