@blissful nexus
How and what are you trying to edit

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 2:32 PM

#

server-config files of minecolonies, and changing the pvp to true

#

thanks

#

through files on docker image

#

@mortal anchor

#

please

#

@mortal anchor

blissful nexus <@216152103297482754>

Was the server turned off or on when doing this

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 3:04 PM

#

it was on, but on docker the files don't show up unless its on weirdly

#

@mortal anchor

mortal anchor Oct 22, 2024, 3:06 PM

#

nightconfig

#

corruption

#

lovely

mortal anchor Oct 22, 2024, 3:06 PM

#

blissful nexus it was on, but on docker the files don't show up unless its on weirdly

for future refrence never edit server files while its running

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 3:06 PM

#

yeah thats fair, how should I go about it then?

mortal anchor Oct 22, 2024, 3:06 PM

#

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 3:06 PM

#

i havent played on it at all so im not worried about making another one and editing it correctly

mortal anchor Oct 22, 2024, 3:07 PM

#

you would just need to move the serverconfig from the singleplayer world to the server

#

or just setup a new serverpack if its a system you have access to

#

make a new world

#

and copy over its serverconfig

#

whichever is less of a headahce

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 3:11 PM

#

Yeah I’ll try that, I was trying to mount the folder since docker is kind of weird with that, but it kept a crashing whenever it would load the file I edited but maybe I’ll try again thanks

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 3:38 PM

#

blissful nexus Yeah I’ll try that, I was trying to mount the folder since docker is kind of wei...

Why use docker instead of an actual os like Linux? Also I find Crafty a lot easier to use

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 4:22 PM

#

because it has an image that runs autocurseforge

#

what is crafty?

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:05 PM

#

Crafty is another server manager software that you can run on windows, linux, and I think Mac

#

it is rather simple to use, and allows you to edit the config files while the server is stopped

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:26 PM

#

oh cool, does it easily boot up modpacks?

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:33 PM

#

yeah. setting it up for 1.17.x forge modpacks is "slightly" tricky, only in that you have to explicitly state a few things in the java and startup strings, but other than that, it works great

#

supports running multiple servers at once, gives you a read out on CPU and RAM usage on the web panel, shows you how many and who is logged into each server

#

and I think it lets you ban users with a single click from the dashboard without needing to access the console

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:40 PM

#

i dont have any java script experience so if i have to write code it wont be good for me

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:41 PM

#

nope you dsont

#

1 sec

#

#

so for a 1.17.x server you have to explicitly state the Java path, and then put the @libraries bit from the run.bat file into the Server Execution Command

#

then in the Server Executable you put the @libraries part but instead of @ before it you put ./

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:43 PM

#

but how do I get it to run LITV3

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:43 PM

#

that is the hardest parts to remember is specifying the java 17 explicitly (assuming you have more than one Java installed) and the libraries part

#

To install modpacks you have 4 options

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:44 PM

#

isnt litv3 1.19

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:44 PM

#

the easiest is to import from a zip file

#

1.19 is greater than 1.17

#

and as I said any 1.17.x + modpack would use the method above

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:45 PM

#

Oh + gotcha

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:45 PM

#

to install LITV 3 you would download the server poackage from the curseforge website

#

then just fill in the information on this panel

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:46 PM

#

import or upload

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:46 PM

#

the one on the right not the left

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:46 PM

#

thanks for the help

#

copy

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:46 PM

#

NOW if you already have a server setup in a folder, and you want to use that instead...

#

you can do that also

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:46 PM

#

nah i just was running docker

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:47 PM

#

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:47 PM

#

it works for the mostpart, but the autocurseforge is weird sometimes

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:47 PM

#

and in your docker you have a server folder already that it can import

#

yeah with this, there is no wierdness

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:48 PM

#

true, i think ill just let crafty boot a new one as the docker one is just testing to get it to work so no special world or anything

#

well thanks!

#

ill lyk if it works

#

shoukd

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:48 PM

#

and you can run it as a service in windows, or as a cron job in linux

#

doing it in windows takes a little doing, as you have to install .net 8 and Git

#

but it does work

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:51 PM

#

no idea what that means lol, thanks!

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:52 PM

#

lol

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:52 PM

#

i am a bit new to all of this

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:52 PM

#

.net 8 and GIT are software ytou need to install in windows

#

a cron job is a process that starts automatically at a specificed point in time or event in linux

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 5:53 PM

#

gotcha gotcha, so what does that have to do with crafty though, sorry if stupid question

#

also, what does it want for the field: Server Executable File

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 5:53 PM

#

by setting it as a server (windows) or a Cronjob (linux) you can configure it to startup automatically when your machine starts up without you needing to manually start Crafty

#

you are in this panel?

#

#

#

@blissful nexus for the Server Executable File you would put ./@libraries/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.19.2-43.3.2/win_args.txt

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:05 PM

#

karmic dove you are in this panel?

yes

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:05 PM

#

ok just making sure

#

once you have all the fields filled in, the Import Server button will light up

#

Once you do the import, there are a few more things we need to do before you can start the server

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:09 PM

#

okay I think it worked! thanks so much, now do i edit the config while its off or on

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:10 PM

#

um it shouldnt be working yet, unless the only java you have installed is Java 17

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:10 PM

#

guess i have to run it once anyways

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:10 PM

#

nope

#

you do not need to run it at all

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:10 PM

#

well the config file wont be there for me to edit if it isnt generated right?

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:11 PM

#

if it is in world/serverconfig/ it is there, its in /defaultconfigs/

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:13 PM

#

ah okay sweet, so I need to download java now or can I run it?

#

thanks for your time and help

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:13 PM

#

depends

#

what OS are you using right now, windows or linux?

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:14 PM

#

windows

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:14 PM

#

open CMD

#

then run this command java --version

#

what is the full message that shows up when you do that

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:15 PM

#

it says thats not a command lol

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:16 PM

#

so it says Command not found?

#

or unrecognized option?

#

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:17 PM

#

'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:17 PM

#

ok

#

that means you do not have ANY java installed, which is good in a way

#

!java

idle sigilBOT Oct 22, 2024, 6:17 PM

#

Uninstall other Java Versions by searching java/jdk through the apps and features menu.

If you need multiple Java versions use #absolute-pathing instead

Minecraft 1.16.5/1.12.2 requires Java 8,
- Download .msi and run the installer
https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=8&os=windows&arch=x64&package=jre

Minecraft MC 1.17 and newer requires Java 17
- Download .msi and run the installer
https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=17&os=windows&arch=x64&package=jre

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:17 PM

#

download and install the Java 17

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:19 PM

#

thanks will do, get back to you when its done

#

msi or zip

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:21 PM

#

msi as stated in the message above

#

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:22 PM

#

thanks sorry

#

okay done

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:24 PM

#

ok in crafty go to the Config section of the server dashboard

#

this screen

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:24 PM

#

yeah I did the config I needed to in serverconfig for minecolonies I think, it saved it

#

copy

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:25 PM

#

make sure server executable is ./libraries/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.19.2-43.3.2/win_args.txt

#

make sure that Server Execution Command is java -Xms6144M -Xmx8192M "@libraries/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.19.2-43.3.2/win_args.txt" nogui

#

the -Xms and -Xmx values listed above are the recommended values

#

since you only have 1 java installed, you do not need to worry about explicitly specfiying java

#

once those fields are correct, go to >_ Terminal

#

click the blue Start Button

#

it will pop up a message about accepting the EULA, click yes

#

I think you then need to click Start a second time

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:29 PM

#

awesome

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:30 PM

#

If there's anything wrong it will tell you right away. Otherwise it will start the boot up process

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:31 PM

#

We can't seem to find your executable file. Has it finished downloading? Are the permissions set to executable?

#

it said this

#

but I did what you said above

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:31 PM

#

Ok one sec

#

screenshot this screen please

#

I need to see all the fields listed

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:33 PM

#

i think there was a @ in the libraries left over from before I removed it and it is "updating" now

#

man it takes a while lol

#

does it usually take this long?

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:40 PM

#

what does your terminal show right now, screenshot it

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:42 PM

#

#

just updating endlessly lol

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:43 PM

#

wierd

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:44 PM

#

should I reload the page?

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:45 PM

#

it shouldnt have taken this long to begin the start process

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:46 PM

#

okay it says start now ill click it again

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:46 PM

#

ok

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:46 PM

#

it says this again /: We can't seem to find your executable file. Has it finished downloading? Are the permissions set to executable?

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:47 PM

#

ok

#

this time SCREENSHOT the config page for me

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:47 PM

#

oh im stupid hol up

#

I will too but I think I know why

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:47 PM

#

I cant diagnose possible mistypes and stuff if I cant see what you entered

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:47 PM

#

I removed the @ but didnt click save at the bottom smh

#

#

okay it says this now: Server LITV3 failed to start with error code: We have detected Java is not installed. Please install java then start the server.

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:50 PM

#

ok

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:50 PM

#

I do have it installed though as I ran the command above and it said 1.17 installed in CMD

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:50 PM

#

was afraid of that

#

ok

#

you see where it says java in the Server Execution Command

#

we need to change that

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:51 PM

#

#

copy

#

change it or delete it?

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:51 PM

#

replace java with C:\Program Files\Eclipse Adoptium\jre-17.0.13.11-hotspot\bin\java.exe

#

correction

#

"C:\Program Files\Eclipse Adoptium\jre-17.0.13.11-hotspot\bin\java.exe"

#

forgot the " "

#

"C:\Program Files\Eclipse Adoptium\jre-17.0.13.11-hotspot\bin\java.exe" -Xms6144M -Xmx8192M "@libraries/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.19.2-43.3.2/win_args.txt" nogui

#

that should be the full string once you make the edit

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:53 PM

#

okay wonderful thanks so much

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:53 PM

#

also 12gb is more than you will need, unless you plan on having 10ish people on the server at the same time

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 6:53 PM

#

gotcha

#

running now

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 6:57 PM

#

now all oyu need to do is setu port forwarding in your router for port 25565 and your friends can join you

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 7:00 PM

#

Already done, thank you!

#

appreciate all your help really

#

sorry im slow with understanding a bit lol

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 7:01 PM

#

if you port forward 8443 you can access your craft dashboard from anywhere

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 7:04 PM

#

oh interesting

#

thats helpful

#

does it run without the browser open or how does that work

karmic dove Oct 22, 2024, 7:04 PM

#

crarfty runs in the background on your PC

#

you can close the browser as that is just the interface for it

blissful nexus Oct 22, 2024, 7:14 PM

#

amazing thanks
