starting Minecraft

sluggo · 11. Mai 2014

I followed the short tutorial here: http://forums.openmediavault.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2374 for installing Minecraft and it works well.

In order to start the minecraft server, I had to plug a keyboard and monitor into my OMV server, login as minecraft and start the server. However, if I'm making changes/mods/plugins to the server, I will need to stop and start the server on a regular basis. I don't want to keep a keyboard and monitor attached to my OMV server. Is there another way to stop and start the server remotely? I usually use putty from my desktop to access OMV, but as I understand it, I shouldn't be root when starting the minecraft server. I don't think I can use putty as adm user minecraft?

cheers

You can of course login with user minecraft using putty. The minecraft user only needs to be part of the ssh group. You dont need to go to your nas.

Thanks, I didn't know about the SSH user!

I have installed Multicraft on my OMV 1.1 server, using SSH. It works perfect. You will have to use the Nginx and MySql plugins. This way I can administrate my Minecraft server through Multicrafts webpage. Its easy for me to change between CraftBukkit, SpigotMC or other minecraft servers, I can maintain permissions and plugins, stop and start the server and much more. The minecraft worlds is stored on my OMV datadrive, but the server is running om my OMV SSD system disk. It took me some time to make it work. Multicraft is free for one minecraft server with up to 8 users. If you need more you will have to buy Multicraft or find another product.

I think I have seen MyMcAdmin for OMV some time ago, but I cant find the plugin anymore.

Also I use OMV to backup my MC world, so its very easy to do rollback with WorldGuard from inside Minecraft.

I had to pull the Plugin back then due to a copyright problem, but as far as I know jhmiller worked around that problem. It may only need to be rebuild and put in repo. I'll let @ryecoaaron check that.

I got these errors when I installed MyMcAdmin.

And the plugin was not installed.....

I admit it was only a quick change over so that the files needed were download from their server (as requested) I did say in the thread that I had not had a chance to test it.

From the output above it looks like its not finding the address to the latest files, I will test in a VM and see if I can correct the problem.

jhmiller · 27. November 2014

Fixed most problems, I have just installed, started the service and checked the webui. All looks good to me. I will ask @ryecoaaron to build the new version.

Before you install it please make sure the current version is removed by running apt-get remove --purge openmediavault-mcmyadmin

1.1 is in the regular testing repo. Not sure why I was putting it in the download managers repo.

Jetzt mitmachen!
