What follows in are some console commands for managing users on the Debian 11 Minecraft build described in this series of posts.
There are console commands for both modifying and managing users. In this post we will be focused on the management aspect.
In a previous series of posts, we built a rather simple Debian Minecraft server. After the initial setup, you may find the random world that was created not to your liking for any number of reasons. A task you might want to perform at this point is to generate a new Minecraft world.
Since the server has no GUI, nor did we install any third party management software, this is a task that will need to be performed from the command line. So we will walk through the process, in this post, of saving an existing world, setting a seed for world creation, actually creating a new world, and if desired, deleting a world. (more…)
In the last post we had the Minecraft Server up and running. However there is one issue that needs to be resolved, and one feature that needs to be added.
Basically if you log out of the server, Minecraft stops. We will fix that by using the screen program we installed earlier. While we could do it by hand, we will write a bash script to simplify this process
And we want to start Minecraft when the server boots up. We will add that feature with a cron job. (more…)
The pwd (short for print working directory) command is a standard utility command in Linux Distributions. It displays the path to the current working directory. The pwd command only has two few options, making it one of the easier commands to learn. (more…)
