Bug Server auto restarts with screen -dm in start script, but not without

    I just found out that the /restart only works when the start.sh script includes "screen -dm" in front of java -Xms blah blah -jar spigot.jar, but not without. And the starting process is a little different.

    To start the server and enable the restart function. You gotta do the following
    cd (server folder)
    ./start.sh
    screen -x

    Could you please enable the function with normal screen ./start.sh?

    I just use something like this:
    Code (Text):
    #!/bin/sh
    while true
    do
    //startup code
    echo "If you want to completely stop the server process now, press Ctrl+C before the time is up!"
    echo "Rebooting in:"
    for i in 5 4 3 2 1
    do
    echo "$i..."
    sleep 1
    done
    echo "Rebooting now!"
    done
     
    Someone posted this on here a while ago (can't remember who) and it works great. Start with screen ./start.sh and to auto reboot just do /stop

    Yeah it's great to use :) I reported this because when server crashed, only the screen -dm will work.

    Did you try using just -m?
