This page covers building OpenSim from source code on multiple platforms. Please help us keep this page up to date as the project progresses.

Contents

Download OpenSim

Check out the Download page for instructions on obtaining an OpenSim source release.

General notes

Although this page is long, building is generally quite simple. See the BUILDING.txt file in the distribution itself for simplified instructions.

MS Windows

OpenSim requires either the .Net Framework version 3.51, or Mono 2.4.3 or newer. It supports the following compilers:

Net Framework is available from here: www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx

New URL: http://www.microsoft.com/express/Windows/ ( The Visual Studio® 2010 Express )

Additional note: If you like IDE's you will need C# express 2008 or VS 2008.

Additional note: Microsoft C# Express v9 may install .Net 3.5 with resultant path error.

  1. To avoid install .Net framework version 2.0 (installed by default in Windows XP & newer)

Additional note: It is possible to develop on Windows Vista 64 bits with the following tweaks:

  1. Select OpenSim project properties from solution and choose platform to be x86. Rebuild solution.
  2. Select OpenSim.exe properties under solution bin folder and choose windows xp sp 2 compatibility mode + run as administrator.

Additional note: It is possible to develop with Visual Studio 2010 - C# Express with the following tweaks:

  1. In the top-level directory, run the 'runprebuild.bat' file. This will create a VS2008 solution file.
  2. Open the VS2008 solution file in VS 2010 Express and run the conversion wizard to crease a VS2010 solution file.
  3. In the solution explorer of the resulting project, right click on each project (there are 91) and select properties. Under the Application tab, set the Target framework to .NET Framework 3.5.
  4. In the solution explorer, under the OpenSim project select "app.config".
  5. Copy the contents of bin\OpenSim.exe.config into the app.config file

Building

  • In the top-level directory, run the 'runprebuild.bat' file. This will create a VS2008 solution file, a nant build file and a 'compile.bat' file.
  • Open the resulting sln file with visual studio and build it there, or
  • Run the 'compile.bat' file. This will build the executable using MSBuild.
  • if you prefer to use nant, run nant in the same top-level directory. This will build the executables.

Running

Copy the bin/OpenSim.ini.example file to bin/OpenSim.ini before making any changes.

Assuming you initially want to create an Opensim Standalone setup, the example Opensim.ini already has the appropriate [Architecture] setting for that in place referring to an include file at bin/config-include/StandaloneCommon.ini.example.

Copy the bin/config-include/StandaloneCommon.ini.example file to bin/config-include/StandaloneCommon.ini before making any changes to that too. A cache is recommended to make Opensim run in a more stable and efficient manner. Choose a cache as described in bin/config-include/StandaloneCommon.ini.

Double-click on the OpenSim.exe executable file in the bin directory. This will start up OpenSim in standalone mode.

The debugger in VS2008 C# may be used to step through the code. For those that use a Cygwin shell, you may find that one or more dll's have permissions that cause problems running. Most find that a "chmod 777 *" from the bin directory solves this.

Windows Vista

Some people have reported that to run on Windows Vista, you must first disable Windows Firewall. Under the new "Start" button of Vista, select "Control panel". Then double-click "Windows Firewall". In the window that pops up, on the left column, select "Turn Windows Firewall on or off". You will have to give permission for this to run, then select the option "Off (not recommended)". Click "OK" and exit from the Windows Firewall window.

If you have McAfee SecurityCenter, see the description below.

Once all the security features are disabled, right click on OpenSim.exe and select "Run as administrator". This will pop up a window asking permission, select "Allow". Your OpenSim server should run in a DOS-like window and accept connections.

McAfee Security

McAfee Security does not allow applications to listen on ports not explicitly specified. You have two options: 1) disable firewall protection all together, 2) enable OpenSim.exe to be able to open ports.

Disable firewall

Open McAfee SecurityCenter. Select "Internet & Network". In the lower left corner is a small link to "Configure...". Select this. In the right side of the window, select the bar that says "Firewall protection is enabled". Here you can select "Off".

Enable OpenSim.exe to open ports

Open McAfee SecurityCenter. Select "Internet & Network". In the lower left corner is a small link to "Configure...". Select this. In the right side of the window, select the bar that says "Firewall protection is enabled". Select the "Advanced..." button. This will pop up a new window.

In the new window, on the left side, select "Program Permissions." In the middle on the right side of the window, select the "Add Allowed Program" button. Use the browser that pops up to find the OpenSim executable and select it.

Finally, select "OK" and exit the McAfee SecurityCenter window.

Linux/Mac OS X/FreeBSD

The easiest platform to get running on the Linux side is Ubuntu 32bit. This is what most of the developers running Linux use. If you are looking for the quick path, start there.

Many distros (including Ubuntu) ship with only the "mono-runtime" package installed, however you need to install "mono-complete" for some OpenSimulator features such as LSL script commands.

Ubuntu

For Ubuntu users on older distributions (7.10, 8.04, 9.10 etc.) you need to upgrade your version of mono to at least 2.4.3. For anyone who needs to upgrade their Mono, see Update Mono on Ubuntu.

Ubuntu Karmic (9.10) includes mono 2.4.2.3 packages.

Ubuntu Lucid (10.04) includes mono 2.4.4 packages

Ubuntu Maverick (10.10) includes mono 2.6.7 packages

To build: 

sudo apt-get install nant mono-gmcs libmono-microsoft8.0-cil \
     libmono-system-runtime2.0-cil libgdiplus libmono-i18n2.0-cil libmono-oracle2.0-cil
Download opensim
cd opensim
./runprebuild.sh
nant

openSUSE 10.3/11/11.1

Install an openSUSE 11.1, 11 or 10.3 with its default options, add the online repositories when finished installing do an online update with all the latest packages.

In yast install these packages, for running Opensim in standalone mode. (there is a slight diffrence between 10.3 and 11/11.1 but following should be same) 

subversion
nant
mono-jscript
- check that mono-core is installed

just in case you do not already have it installed 

 sudo zypper install mono-data-oracle

A tip for OpenSuSE 11.1 users - you can install packages from the command line using the 'zypper' tool. For example, to install 'nant', use this command: 

 sudo zypper install nant

If you just want to use SQLite then jump to last section within this post.

  • Optional mysql - for Opensim running in Grid mode:

Install these mysql packages via yast 

 mysql
 mysql-client
 mysql-administrator
 mysql-gui-tools
 mysql-query-browser

(note that selecting mysql in the Yast2 Installer will select the other packages automatically)

Before building create the mysql database. 

/etc/init.d/mysql start
mysql -u root -p -h localhost
(when asked for password just hit enter)

mysql> create database opensim;
mysql> use opensim;
mysql> create user 'opensim'@'localhost' identified by 'thePassword';
mysql> grant all on *.* to 'opensim'@'localhost';
mysql> quit
  • note that the grant all command may differ if you're adding the opensim database to an existing mysql installation.

On current builds set the connection string inside bin/OpenSim.ini after coppying the OpenSim.ini.example file. If you are changing to MySQL from SQLite, the connection string for mysql also exists in the bin/Region/*xml files.

  • It is important to remember this if you start out using the built-in SQLite database engine.

Build after installation of above in bash terminal. I save it in /opt 

su -
cd /opt
Download opensim
cd opensim
./runprebuild.sh
nant

Or, if you have a current (0.6+), you can simply execute: 

make

After this you should be able to continue on starting the diffrent Servers, look in the mysql-config section,or just run your OpenSim as a Standalone.

Mac OS X 10.5 and later, Intel

You might find it work for your environment (OS X 10.5.7, Intel):

  • make sure you have X11 installed
  • grab the Apple Dev Tools from [1]
  • install Mono Framework 2.4 from [2]
  • Recent versions of Mono/Nant may require an adjustment to PkgConfig. And in Terminal or X11 edit the .profile file and add the following line: 
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/lib/pkgconfig/:${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}"
  • Get OpenSim source:
  • Compile OpenSim: 
 cd opensim
 ./runprebuild.sh
 nant

You might find it work for your environment (OS X 10.5.7 and 10.6, Intel) on (8/9/09):

  • make sure you have X11 installed (installed by default on 10.5 and 10.6)
  • Very important to grab the latest Apple Dev Tools (3.2.1 on 8/9/09) (from [3] - You will need a developer account, it is free.
  • install Mono Framework 2.6.x from [4] Or perhaps the latest stable release.

Mono includes nant, so it should not be necessary to build nant with MacPorts, but others have done so and left these intructions:

  • install Mac Ports from [5]
  • Mac Ports should update its packages on install, but to be safe, type the following at the Terminal: 
 sudo port -v selfupdate
  • Use mac ports to install nant. (This should pull in everything you need. I think this will also try to install mono, but since I already had it installed, that errored on me. Don't worry about it though, it should install everything else you need.) At the Terminal type: 
 sudo port install nant
  • Get OpenSim source. I downloaded 0.6.6 from [6]
  • Uncompress the download.
  • Compile OpenSim: 
 cd opensim
 ./runprebuild.sh
 nant
  • Then of course the issue with the 0.6.6 release.

This release had some bugs with default automatic configuration on the first startup of OpenSim.exe. bin/Regions/default.xml (region configuration file) is not automatically created in the main directory. Therefore, you must manually create this file. Here is an example. 

<Root>
  <Config sim_UUID="UUID" sim_name="NAME" sim_location_x="1000" sim_location_y="1000"
 internal_ip_address="IP_ADDRESS_OF_SERVER" internal_ip_port="9000" allow_alternate_ports="false"
 external_host_name="DNS_NAME_OF_SERVER" master_avatar_uuid="00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
 estate_covanant_uuid="00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000" master_avatar_first="FIRST_NAME"
 master_avatar_last="SECOND_NAME" master_avatar_pass="PASSWORD" />
</Root>

You must change UUID, NAME, IP_ADDRESS_OF_SERVER, DNS_NAME_OF_SERVER, FIRST_NAME, SECOND_NAME and PASSWORD to your own values. (I noticed than IP_ADDRESS_OF_SERVER should be set to real IP not to 127.0.0.1)

Summary:

  • Run OpenSim0.6.6Setup.exe and install OpenSim in Windows
  • Run OpenSim.exe and enter default values - record them!
  • Shutdown simulator (command: shutdown)
  • Create default.xml with copy of above
  • Change values in default.xml with recoded values
  • Be sure default.xml be in main directory (same with OpenSim.ini)
  • Run again OpenSim.exe
  • Connect with viewer

Mac OS X 10.4/10.5 on PowerPC

OpenSim can run on PowerPC Macs (such as G4, G5). These instructions were tested on 10.5.8. Note that two libraries must also be built from source. Caveat: the OpenSim app was only briefly tested in self-contained mode. There may well be issues with this build. Feel free to note any issues you find below (or in a new wiki page? discussion?).

Unfortunately, the OpenSim version used here must be compiled on one version of Mono (2.6.7) and run on another (2.8.2). This means either upgrading Mono after the build, or having both versions installed and accessing the older version when you want to build. These instructions let you have both versions installed.

  • Install Xcode 3.1.4 Developer Tools from from http://developer.apple.com/. You must have a free Apple developer account to access the downloads. 3.1.4 was the last PowerPC Xcode.
  • (10.4 only) Install X11 from the Optional Install (or see if it's a Customize option when you install Xcode). 10.5 gets X11 by default (from OS X or dev tools?).
  • Install Mono 2.6.7 PowerPC Framework from here: http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html (binary OS X Framework, no need to build from source)
  • Then install Mono 2.8.2 PowerPC framework. For these instructions to work, you must first install 2.6.7, THEN 2.8.2. (The old framework is not deleted, but "Current" symlinks are updated).
  • Download OpenSim 0.7.0.2 source tarball: http://dist.opensimulator.org/opensim-0.7.0.2-source.tar.gz Expand to a suitable folder for development and running.
    • Feel free to try a newer version of OpenSim (the repository is on git now).
    • If you used a newer OpenSim version, check BUILDING.txt for any changes to build instructions (we fall under "Linux")
  • Edit or create .profile or .bash_profile in your OS X home folder, with the following lines: 
# remember real PATH
export OSIM_HACK_ORIG_PATH=$PATH

# normal path for running OpenSim
export PATH=$PATH:/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/bin:/usr/local/mysql/bin

# Just for nant:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/2.6.7/lib/pkgconfig
alias oldpath="export PATH=$OSIM_HACK_ORIG_PATH:/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/2.6.7/bin"
  • Open a new Terminal window, and cd to your uncompressed OpenSim source folder (shortcut: type "cd " then drag the folder to the Terminal window). The enter these commands: 
oldpath
./runprebuild.sh
nant
  • nant should take around 10 minutes to compile your OpenSim. If you get through that without errors, you're halfway there! (I did get 234 warnings).
  • *Important* Before we forget, open a new Terminal window (necessary to avoid the effects of "oldpath").
  • Now we need PowerPC versions of two libraries. Build each one and replace the compiled .dylib files in the opensim/bin folder. 
svn co http://libopenmetaverse.googlecode.com/svn/libopenmetaverse/trunk/openjpeg-dotnet libopenmetaverse-read-only
cd libopenmetaverse-read-only
    • To build, remove the Makefile file, which is for Linux, and rename Makefile.osx to just Makefile, then give the command: make )
    • Remove the other versions of the two libraries (similar names, different extensions, like "libode-x86_64.so". Two libode's and three libopenjpeg's).
  • Configure your sim: Copy OpenSim.ini.example to OpenSim.ini and customize it per its comments.
  • Likewise copy and customize StandaloneCommon.ini in bin/config-include
  • Note that the comments say that the current SQLite plugin doesn't work on OS X. Either solve that, or install MySQL, which requires no compiling and is relatively easy to set up:
    • From http://downloads.mysql.com/archives.php?p=mysql-5.1&v=5.1.40, download MySQL 5.1.40 for 10.5 PowerPC (installer, not 64-bit)
    • Run the installer. (which installs to /usr/local)
    • Install MySQL.prefPane into System Preferences by double-clicking it.
    • Open the pref pane and start MySQL.
    • (Optional:) For unattended startup, install MySQLStartupItem (doesn't always work for me).
    • (Recommended:) In Terminal, do the one-time setup of MySQL with this command: mysql_secure_installation
    • In MySQL, create the opensim user per the comments in OpenSim.ini. Give it all the create privileges.
      • Since this is a Mac, you could use Sequel Pro (donationware) to do that in a nice GUI. Standard connection, host: 127.0.0.1 (if on the same Mac)
  • You're ready to run OpenSim. In that new Terminal window, cd to your OpenSim-source/bin folder. 
mono OpenSim.exe
  • If all is well, you will be prompted "New region name []: "
  • Turn to "Running OpenSim for the first time" on wiki page Configuration - OpenSim
  • When fully up and running, the prompt is "Region (<region-name>) #"

Here are the earlier instructions for PowerPC, and others for Intel:

  • OpenSim is now working on PowerPC Macs! Thanks to DrScofield and those who helped him. Current nightly builds for PowerPC are not working, not sure about Intel so use the 0.5 Build. OpenSim works on Intel Macs. I'm testing on PowerBook G4. Tested these step on 10.5, but not 10.4 but should work (Works on iMac G5 with OS 10.4.11, including expanding to local grid mode.
  • Install XCode Developers Tools from DVD/CD Installation Disk or download from http://developer.apple.com/. You have to create an Apple account to access the downloads if you don't have an Apple account.
  • Install X11 for 10.4 from the Optional Install from the DVD/CD Installation Disk. X11 for 10.5 is installed by default.
  • Install Mono 1.2.5 from http://ftp.novell.com/pub/mono/archive/1.2.5/macos-10-universal/5/MonoFramework-1.2.5_5.macos10.novell.universal.dmg (The more recent releases Mono 1.2.6, 1.9.1 and 2.0.1 do not appear to work with these installation instructions And in Terminal or X11 edit the .profile file and add the following line: 
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/lib/pkgconfig/:${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}"
  • Compile OpenSim 
svn co http://opensimulator.org/svn/opensim/tags/0.5.0-release opensim
cd opensim 
./runprebuild.sh
nant
  • Download and Compile libopenjpeg-libsl-2.1.2.0.dylib and libsecondlife.dll
  • libopenjpeg-libsl-2.1.2.0.dylib: 
svn co http://opensimulator.org/svn/opensim-libs/old/libsl1550 opensim-libs
cd opensim-libs/openjpeg-libsl
make -f Makefile.osx
cp libopenjpeg-libsl-2.1.2.0.dylib ../../bin
  • Note: The Makefile that creates the libopenjpeg-libsl-2.1.2.0.so does not compile on PowerPC, but works properly on Intel Macs. Looks like a gcc issue with compile options. (It appears to work on iMac G5 with OS X 10.4.11. 
cd .. (back into opensim-libs)
nant
cp bin/libsecondlife.dll ../bin
  • Edit the libsecondlife.dll.config (PowerPC Only). Remove the cpu="x86" tag in the last dllmap line.

FreeBSD 6.2 

su
cd /usr/ports/devel/subversion/ && make install clean (you may also need to rebuild apr-svn if this step fails)
cd /usr/ports/lang/mono/ && make install clean
cd /usr/ports/devel/nant/ && make install clean
cd /usr/ports/databases/sqlite3/ && make install clean
cd /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/libgdiplus/ && make install clean
cd /opensim/installation/directory/
Download opensim
cd opensim
./runprebuild.sh
nant

Note: Follow the instructions on the FAQ to fix the
"System.DllNotFoundException: ./libopenjpeg-libsl-2.1.2.0.so" issue, but use "gmake" instead of "make"

For ODE Physics you must do the following: 

cd /usr/ports/graphics/libGL/ && make install clean
cd /usr/ports/graphics/libGLU/ && make install clean
cd /opensim/installation/directory/
svn co http://opensimulator.org/svn/opensim-libs/trunk opensim-libs

sh autogen.sh
./configure --enable-shared --enable-release --disable-demos
make
mv ./ode/src/.libs/libode.so /opensim/installation/directory/opensim/bin/

RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 

sudo vi /etc/yum.repos.d/mono.repo

 [mono]
 name=Mono for rhel-4-i386 (stable)
 baseurl=http://ftp.novell.com/pub/mono/download-stable/rhel-4-i386/
 enabled=1
 gpgcheck=0

sudo yum install mono-complete monodoc-core nant
Download opensim
cd opensim
./runprebuild.sh
nant

RedHat Enterprise Linux 5

The instructions below also work on other RedHat Linux flavors such as CentOS or maybe Fedora.

1. Put the Mono.repo file in the /etc/yum.repo.d/ directory: 

$ sudo su -
$ cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
$ wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Mono/RHEL_5/Mono.repo

Naturally use the most up-to-date link for your distribution.

2. Install Mono and related tools with yum: 

$ yum install mono nant mono-jscript mono-nunit

Make sure to use nunit-console2 to run your tests.

Fedora 12 & 13

Fedora 12 and 13 installs are fairly simple. Nant and Mono now work out of the box with OpenSim. Incase you are completley new to this, here is a complete step by step guide to run OpenSim on a base install of Fedora (bare minimum of packages). It will also work on GUI installs.

1. yum install wget nano nant libgdiplus mono-devel mono-jscript

2. Download opensim (wget http://dist.opensimulator.org/opensim-0.7.0.1-source.tar.gz)

3. tar -xf opensim-0.7.0.1-source.tar.gz

4. mv opensim-0.7.0.1-source opensim

5. cd opensim

6. ./runprebuild.sh

7. nant

8. cd /bin

9. cd /config-include/

10. cp StandaloneCommon.ini.example StandaloneCommon.ini

11. cd ..

12. cp OpenSim.ini.example OpenSim.ini

13. mono OpenSim.exe

Fedora 5

  • I needed to build latest mono and nant from sources to build OpenSim successfully, the ones available in yum repository didn't work so I had to uninstall and build and configure the packages.

For detailed instructions go here

Debian 4

For detailed instructions please see Debian 4 Build Instructions

Debian 5

1. Install Debian in the usual way. In the package list choose just the last option - 'Standard system' Leave all other install options unchecked unless you have other reason to install them.

2. Log in as your root user make sure it works.

3. type: aptitude update (or apt-get update)

4. type: aptitude install nant and answer 'y' to 'Do you want to continue'- This will install nant and all of its dependancies.

5. type: apt-get install git-core and answer 'y' to 'Do you want to continue'.

6. type: aptitude install build-essential swig autoconf gawk mono-common binfmt-support bison libglib2.0-dev gettext and answer 'y' to 'Do you want to continue'

7. type: wget http://ftp.novell.com/pub/mono/sources/mono/mono-2.4.3.tar.bz2 to download mono

8. type: tar xf mono-2.4.3.tar.bz2 to extract the mono source code to a directory (substitute the latest build)

9. type: cd mono-2.4.3 to change int the directory you just created

10. type: ./configure --with-libgdiplus=yes - wait for it to finish

11. type: make - and wait some more as this takes a bit - moreso on older machines

12. type: make install

13. type: cd /

14 type: git clone git://opensimulator.org/git/opensim

15 type: cd opensim

16. type: git checkout -b 0.6.8-post-fixes origin/0.6.8-post-fixes (substitute the latest build)

17. type: git pull

18. type: apt-get -u upgrade and answer 'y' to 'do you want to continue?'. This will update all packages to their latest versions via apt (it will not upgrade opensim or mono as they were compiled seperately)

19. Reboot, just to make sure it all comes up cleanly (type: shutdown -r now)

20. Login, type: cd /

21. type: cd opensim

22. type: ./runprebuild.sh

23 type: nant - wait for this to finish

24. type: cd bin

25. type: cp OpenSim.ini.example OpenSim.ini

26. type: mono OpenSim.exe

27. Answer the onscreen wizard promts and Opensim will start in standalone mode.

To add MySql support type: apt-get install mysql-server and answer 'y' to 'Do you want to Continue'. You will be prompted for a password for the MySQL root user, enter it twice as requested. Edit OpenSim.ini to use MySql as directed elsewhere.

Debian testing/unstable (will be Debian 7)

Updated 2011 April 19

  1. Get root access on a Debian/Linux machine or install a fresh copy yourself. see http://www.debian.org/ This is the most difficult and longest step in our list, but there are many resources to help you through if this is your first time.
  2. Log in as your root user.
  3. Check /etc/debian_version to be sure of what release you are working with, by typing: `cat /etc/debian_version'. As of this writing it should reply "wheezy/sid".
  4. type: `apt-get update'
  5. type: `apt-get dist-upgrade' This will upgrade all packages to their latest versions and will handle conflicts which may arise. See: `man apt-get' for more information. If you did not install from scratch this will bring the system up to date. For more information about running and maintaining a Debian system enter: `apt-get install debian-reference' and point a web browser at /usr/share/doc/debian-reference-common/html/index.en.html This is a book length document (read it later).
  6. type: `apt-get install mono-complete nant git build-essential swig autoconf gawk binfmt-support bison gettext' and answer 'y' to 'Do you want to continue'.
  7. Reboot, just to make sure it all comes up cleanly (type: `shutdown -r now')
  8. Login again, type: `cd /usr/src'
  9. type: `git clone git://opensimulator.org/git/opensim'
  10. type: `cd opensim'
  11. type: `git branch -r' will show you the available branches in the remote repository. You want the most recent release which will be listed as something like "origin/0.7.0.2-release"
  12. type: `git checkout -b 0.7.0.2-release origin/0.7.0.2-release'
  13. type: `git pull'
  14. type: `./runprebuild.sh'
  15. type: `nant'
  16. type: `cd bin' to switch directories to /usr/src/opensim/bin
  17. type: `cp OpenSim.ini.example OpenSim.ini' (The [Architecture] section is what determines if you will be running a standalone or grid server. You want the default standalone variant to get started with.)
  18. type: `cd config-include' you are now in /usr/src/opensim/bin/config-include
  19. type: `cp StandaloneCommon.ini.example StandaloneCommon.ini' See Configuration for more information on configuring OpenSim.
  20. type: `cd ..' to change directories back to /usr/src/opensim/bin
  21. type: `mono OpenSim.exe'
  22. The startup wizard will ask you a number of questions. The defaults are fine but you can fill these in to your taste:

region name, estate name, owner first name, owner last name, owner password, and owner email

Remember the external host name and port number, you need these to construct the login URI to connect to with your client. http://hostname:portnumber/

Opensim will then finish starting and leave you at a prompt which looks like: 

Region (regionName) #
