Create a new Linux user called heruser:

 

sudo useradd -m hercuser
 

 

source https://habilisbest....vate-server ...

 

...

yup. i successfully added new user thanks! moving on to the next problem

you should instead use 'adduser' as it auto creates home directory for user.

or if you are still using useradd, you can do so by having -m parameter:'useradd -m'

 

I recommend adduser command.

should i do it with sudo or nah? 

EDIT:

Thanks. i did it!

I'm currently using digital ocean vps, running ubuntu server 14.04.5 LTS.. i've have no errors running simoultaneously rathena & hercules.. i guess u keyin wrong command perhaps?

i probably did, can u help me somehow? cause im new with this thing.

try guide in my signature it should be a breeze if you use Debian or ubuntu as operating system...

i will surely try ur guide. Thanks Habilis!

 

What problem adding user? What problem with mysql?

 

There's so much that can happen, you should provide more infos if you want help.

i typed in useradd and passwd to create new users in the command line but i guess i did not work for me cause it did nothing.

 

For mysql, everything did not work like creating new database, creating new database username and password, and grant privileges.

 

one more question:

should i use putty or winscp setting up the server side?

 

Putty is fine.

 

 

About users: Which tutorial are you using? Did you added with "chown"? To check if the user was added type "compgen -u | grep $username_you_chose" - if return the name you typed the user exists.

 

About mysql: dump the errors here.

i was following this one https://medium.com/@...30-c59595838021
