Tutorials/Server startup script

This is an example of possible Minecraft server startup and maintenance script for GNU/Linux distros.

Systemd Script
For all modern Servers supporting Systemd. Systemd is the jack of all trades. For Ubuntu, it comes with 15.04 (15.04 is an old version which have had end-of-support, we suggest using later LTS versions instead, but the following contents is fully working in this version).

Installation
[Unit] Description=Minecraft Server %i After=network.target
 * 1) Connect to your (v)root server or if you want to run the server on your machine, open a terminal.
 * 2) Become root using su or sudo. To check if you are root, run whoami to display your username.
 * 3) Next install the necessary packages apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless curl screen nano bash grep
 * 4) Create the /opt folder if it doesn't already exist: mkdir /opt
 * 5) Create the minecraft group for the minecraft user we'll add in the next step: groupadd minecraft
 * 6) Now you need to create the user for the service: useradd --system --shell /usr/sbin/nologin --home /opt/minecraft -g minecraft minecraft
 * 7) Create the Systemd Unit file nano /etc/systemd/system/minecraft@.service and the following:

[Service] WorkingDirectory=/opt/minecraft/%i

Type=simple
 * 1) Solves the issue where the minecraft server will endlessly restart itself
 * 2) See https://askubuntu.com/questions/953920/systemctl-service-timed-out-during-start for more info

PrivateUsers=true
 * 1) Users Database is not available from within the unit, only root and minecraft is available, everybody else is nobody

User=minecraft Group=minecraft

ProtectSystem=full
 * 1) Read only mapping of /usr /boot and /etc

ProtectHome=true
 * 1) /home, /root and /run/user seem to be empty from within the unit. It is recommended to enable this setting for all long-running services (in particular network-facing ones).

ProtectKernelTunables=true
 * 1) /proc/sys, /sys, /proc/sysrq-trigger, /proc/latency_stats, /proc/acpi, /proc/timer_stats, /proc/fs and /proc/irq will be read-only within the unit. It is recommended to turn this on for most services.
 * 2) Implies MountFlags=slave

ProtectKernelModules=true
 * 1) Block module system calls, also /usr/lib/modules. It is recommended to turn this on for most services that do not need special file systems or extra kernel modules to work
 * 2) Implies NoNewPrivileges=yes

ProtectControlGroups=true
 * 1) It is hence recommended to turn this on for most services.
 * 2) Implies MountAPIVFS=yes

Environment="MCMINMEM=512M" "MCMAXMEM=1024M" "SHUTDOWN_DELAY=5" "POST_SHUTDOWN_DELAY=10" EnvironmentFile=-/opt/minecraft/%i/server.conf
 * 1) Set default memory values
 * 1) Change memory values in environment file


 * 1) Uncomment this to fix screen on RHEL 8
 * 2) ExecStartPre=+/bin/sh -c 'chmod 777 /run/screen'

ExecStart=/bin/sh -c \ 'find -L. \     -maxdepth 1 \ -type f \ -iregex ".*/\\(FTBServer\\|craftbukkit\\|spigot\\|paper\\|forge\\|minecraft_server\\).*jar" \ -print0 \ -quit \ | xargs -0 -I{} \ /usr/bin/screen -DmS mc-%i \ /usr/bin/java \ -server \ -Xms${MCMINMEM} \ -Xmx${MCMAXMEM} \ -XX:+UseG1GC \ -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled \ -XX:ParallelGCThreads=2 \ -XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=5 \ -XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=10 \ -jar {} \ --nogui'
 * 1) -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled was deprecated and removed in
 * 2) Java 14 so this should be commented out if you need to upgrade
 * 3) due to minecraft 1.17 requiring Java 16

ExecStartPre=/bin/sh -c \ 'find -L. \     -maxdepth 1 \ -type f \ -iregex ".*/\\(FTBServer\\|craftbukkit\\|spigot\\|paper\\|forge\\|minecraft_server\\).*jar" \ -print0 \ -quit \ | xargs -0 -I{} \ /usr/bin/screen -DmS mc-%i' ExecStart=/bin/sh -c \ '/usr/bin/java \ -server \ -Xms${MCMINMEM} \ -Xmx${MCMAXMEM} \ -XX:+UseG1GC \ -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled \ -XX:ParallelGCThreads=2 \ -XX:MinHeapFreeRatio=5 \ -XX:MaxHeapFreeRatio=10 \ -jar {} \ # insert server jar name. i.e. 'server.jar' --nogui'
 * 1) Alternative to the above ExecStart. Found to work better as this creates the screen session prior to invoking java to run the server.
 * 2) Solves the problem many encountered when starting the service where it would fail with the error 'no screen session found'.

ExecStartPre=/bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/screen -dmS mc-%i' ExecStart=/bin/sh -c '/usr/bin/java -server -Xmx${MCMAXMEM} -Xms${MCMINMEM} -jar server.jar --nogui'
 * 1) Simplified of alternative

ExecReload=/usr/bin/screen -p 0 -S mc-%i -X eval 'stuff "reload"\\015'

ExecStop=/usr/bin/screen -p 0 -S mc-%i -X eval 'stuff "say SERVER SHUTTING DOWN. Saving map..."\\015' ExecStop=/bin/sh -c '/bin/sleep ${SHUTDOWN_DELAY}' ExecStop=/usr/bin/screen -p 0 -S mc-%i -X eval 'stuff "save-all"\\015' ExecStop=/usr/bin/screen -p 0 -S mc-%i -X eval 'stuff "stop"\\015' ExecStop=/bin/sh -c '/bin/sleep ${POST_SHUTDOWN_DELAY}'

Restart=on-failure RestartSec=60s

[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target


 * 1) HowTo
 * 2) Create a directory in /opt/minecraft/XX where XX is a name like 'survival'
 * 3) Add minecraft_server.jar into dir with other conf files for minecraft server
 * 4) Enable/Start systemd service
 * 5)    systemctl enable minecraft@survival
 * 6)    systemctl start minecraft@survival
 * 7) To run multiple servers simply create a new dir structure and enable/start it
 * 8)    systemctl enable minecraft@creative
 * 9) systemctl start minecraft@creative
 * 10) To change specific server memory assignment, create file /opt/minecraft/XX/server.conf (where XX is your server name) and add below lines:
 * 11) MCMINMEM=512M
 * 12) MCMAXMEM=2048M
 * 1)    systemctl enable minecraft@creative
 * 2) systemctl start minecraft@creative
 * 3) To change specific server memory assignment, create file /opt/minecraft/XX/server.conf (where XX is your server name) and add below lines:
 * 4) MCMINMEM=512M
 * 5) MCMAXMEM=2048M
 * 1) MCMAXMEM=2048M

Setup Instance
Now you can Upload your FTB Modpacks into an subfolder of /opt/minecraft/. For example, you would place the modpack "FTB Beyond" in "/opt/minecraft/FTBBeyond" (without spaces in the name). If you want to run vanilla instances, just create a folder within /opt/minecraft and upload the minecraft_server.jar and create the eula.txt file (using: echo "eula=true" > /opt/minecraft/vanilla/eula.txt).

After you uploaded the minecraft server files, make sure, that "minecraft" is the owner and owning group. To do so just run "ls -la /opt/minecraft". If it is not, run "chown minecraft:minecraft /opt/minecraft/FTBBeyond". You may also require to complete the installation. For current FTB packages you would run: cd /opt/minecraft/FTBBeyond echo "eula=true" > /opt/minecraft/FTBBeyond/eula.txt su -c "/opt/minecraft/FTBBeyond/FTBInstall.sh" -s "/bin/bash" minecraft

Start/Stop Instances
You start your server using "systemctl start minecraft@FTBBeyond" and stop it using "systemctl stop minecraft@FTBBeyond". The part behind the "@" is your instance name e. g. the Folder Name. This script also takes care to automatically stop your minecraft server if you reboot the server.

Enable
systemctl enable minecraft@FTBBeyond

Disable
systemctl disable minecraft@FTBBeyond

Init.d Script
For legacy Servers which don't have OS-integrated Systemd

Pre-Requisites
Screen package must be installed. On CentOs and Red Hat-based distributions: yum install screen On Debian based systems such as Ubuntu: apt-get install screen python

Download
To download the script with wget, run the following (WATCH OUT SCRIPT NEEDS WORK - change the WORLD, MCPATH and BACKUPPATH variables. Important: If you use the wget method and the first character of every line is an empty space, the script won't work and update-rc.d outputs errors. If so, you have to remove the leading empty spaces from each line. Be careful not to delete anything else than empty space though!) wget -O minecraft "http://minecraft.fandom.com/Tutorials/Server_startup_script/Script?action=raw"

Requirements

 * screen
 * python (apt-get install python)

Installation
Use your favorite editor to create file called minecraft in /etc/init.d/ and paste the script above in that file.

Edit the USERNAME and MCPATH -variables according to your setup. If you use a wrapper script, change INVOCATION to start it instead of starting the server directly.

Make sure the newly created file has required permissions You can set the permissions by running: chmod a+x /etc/init.d/minecraft

Then run (on Debian-based distributions) update-rc.d minecraft defaults

Starting with Debian 6.0, the insserv command is used instead, if dependency-based booting is enabled. insserv will produce no output if everything went OK. Examine the error code in $? if you want to be sure. insserv minecraft

On CentOs and RHEL(Redhat enterprise Linux) You will need to add the process into the chkconfig list chkconfig manages startup scripts under systemd chkconfig --add minecraft To check if the process is done correctly use the ntsysv command keep scrolling until you see the minecraft process if you don't repeat the chkconfig command. to add required symbolic links. Note: your system will most likely warn you that the script does not meet all requirements. The script will however work.

You can also setup an entry in your crontab to backup the server. A sample crontab to backup every half hour on the hour, and 30 minutes into the hour:

crontab -e and add this 0,30 * * * * /etc/init.d/minecraft backup
 * Using the user account you want the work done under, run:

If the process is unsuccessful, try: VISUAL=/usr/bin/nano crontab -e

Uninstall
(In debian based GNU/Linux distribution) update-rc.d -f minecraft remove (In CentOs/RHEL) chkconfig --del minecraft

Usage
The script may be invoked via the following command on most systems, where "(command)" will be "stop", "start", "restart", or any of the other options it supports. /etc/init.d/minecraft (command) On most RedHat- or Debian-based distribution where the `service` command is available, it should be invoked as: service minecraft (command) To view the screen, use: screen -r

To exit the screen, use: CTRL+a+d

Extra information
If you still want to view the live log file, use this command in the server directory. tail -f logs/latest.log
