I'm using PutTy to connect to my dedicated server. I start the server by going to the directory OPFactions - cd OPFactions- I then do java -jar spigot-1.8.8.jar (to start the server up) - But when I exit out putty, the server closes/shutdown. I don't have a start up script either, I don't believe I do. I don't see any files by the name "start.sh" How can I fix this issue? Can someone please help me and be specific!! <3 <3 Thank you in advanvced!
I had this bookmarked because I wondered the same thing as you. http://www.minecraftforum.net/forum...-tutorial-on-running-minecraft-on-a-dedicated
Not sure what OS you're running, but I'll assume it's Linux since your using putty. You should look into installing tmux or screen (I prefer tmux), and look into the documentation on those, they both basically allow you to create "Windows" inside your server, and you can leave those windows (disconnect from putty, etc.) without the program running inside of it terminating.
To see the error, open up the bat file at txt, and under all the lines put "pause". Then, open the file. If it's an object heap, double check your RAM in the text file executed as that's a common issue. Also, I'm not sure if it's a "bat" on Linux but, whatever your command prompt file is.
Is there any other way around this? to keep it running. if not can you please tell me what commands I need to enter into my PutTy client to do this.
Sorry, but I don't really understand how to use TMux, GNU Screen or nohup. ugh I'm just tired of all this crap honestly
Thank you very much! Sorry I didn't reply earlier, umm, it worked! Thanks. Now when I leave putty, my server still runs, but how do I go back to the server when I re enter putty, without disturbing the server
You got me there, the tutorial only shows how to stop/kill the server. I did this with McMyAdmin panrl so I never had to kill it xD I found another tutorial: https://bukkit.org/threads/guide-setting-up-and-monitoring-a-linux-minecraft-server.122140/ Please read this one too: http://www.minecraftforum.net/forum...-tutorial-on-running-minecraft-on-a-dedicated
If I were to link/add a control panel such as TCAdmin or Multicraft, wont this make it much simpler and auto run the server for me?
It may be simpler, but it would take the fun out of it all. Embrace the command line, don't try to hide it.
Yes, using the nohup thing to start the multicraft panel and not having to kill/stop your server everytime; since multicraft has this included on its panel and you wouldn't have to kill the process (I think)
Spigot states I no longer need a start.sh file anymore, for it is not needed or supported anymore in Java 8.0 http://prntscr.com/8qbyum ( https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/spigot-installation/ ) But you linked me to this, https://bukkit.org/threads/guide-setting-up-and-monitoring-a-linux-minecraft-server.122140/ which says I need one
