Go to your AzerothCore build directory (e.g. $HOME/build/bin/) and copy the following files to your World of Warcraft binaries directory.
13

Now that you have the source compiled, you need to add the necessary client data. You can either download pre-extracted files or use the compiled extractors to extract the files yourself. Once the data is ready, you must update the **DataDir** option in your **worldserver.conf** file to point to the directory containing the data.

## Option 1: Download Pre-Extracted Files
26

27

If you intend to use an enUS client you can download the data files below. If you intend to use any other language client you will need to [extract](#option-2-extract-files-yourself) the data yourself.

1. Download the files above.
33
+
34
+
2. Create a new folder within the build folder called **data**. i.e **$AC_CODE_DIR/build/data/**
35
+
36
+
3. Extract the files from the zip file and place them within the **data** folder.

First of all you need to find the two default config files (named worldserver.conf.dist and authserver.conf.dist) and copy them. Then rename the copies their namesakes without the .dist extension. You can find them within /build/configs/ (may vary).

Open the .conf files and scroll down to LoginDatabaseInfo, WorldDatabaseInfo, and CharacterDatabaseInfo and enter MySQL login information for the server to be able to access your database.
- The hostname (127.0.0.1) can stay the same if AzerothCore is being installed on the same computer that you run WoW on.
116

If not, follow the instruction in [Realmlist Table](realmlist).
117

118

- The port (3306) is the standard configured value. If you changed the default port in your MySQL settings, you must change it accordingly.
119

The username and password can be variable. You can choose to either:
120
+
121
+
- use default acore / acore username and password pair.
122

123
+
- create a unique login within a User Manager within your preferred database management tool (commonly identified by an icon that looks like a person or people) and give it the necessary permissions (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE permissions are sufficient, and is much safer).
