I have read around and tried many a different method to get my startup scripts to work but it does not work. at first I tried using it as an initial startup script meaning I thought all I had to type on first boot (after changing to the minecraft folder) was start.sh or ./start.sh to get it to startup the server, but that doesn't work at all. I have read that the restart is in the spigot.yml file, here is both my start.sh file and spigot.yml files: start.sh: Code (Text): #!/bin/bash java -Xms1024M -Xmx4096M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M -jar spigot.jar and spigot.yml: Spoiler: spigot.yml Code (Text): # This is the main configuration file for Spigot. # As you can see, there's tons to configure.

when I try starting it the first time by typing "start.sh" it just says "start.sh: command not found", and if I try starting it using "./start.sh" it comes up with "bash: ./start.sh: /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory", am I missing a program to use .sh files or is it something else?
Try this: This is from an old thread with the same problem: http://www.spigotmc.org/threads/unsolved-debian-bash-start-sh-no-such-file-or-directory.38471/
If it says file not found try changing to the Directory where the file is. There is also a way to make a symbolic link to the start script but I will let Google handle that. (Search Google making symbolic link) I have also changed mine from bash to this, Can't remember why but I'm sure I did it for a reason... Code (Text): #!/bin/sh
dos2unix worked perfectly, thank you so much. I would have thought the code would have worked regardless but I was wrong, at least the dos2unix protocol is easy to install and easy to use. [EDIT] the script works perfectly however I tried restart in the server using /restart and it just shut down the server and did not restart, I did try adding the ./start.sh in the Spigot.yml file and it didn't work, any suggestions?
I couldnt help you with the restart command, as I don't use it. Instead, I use something similar to this as my start script: Code (Text): # /bin/sh while true do java -Xms___M -XmM____M -jar spigot.jar echo Server stopped. Restarting in 5 seconds. echo Use "Ctrl + C" to cancel restart. sleep 5 done Basically, when you stop your server, it will automatically rerun the script. EDIT: Forgot the shebang in the script
that would be a problem though as when I issue the /stop command I want it to completely stop the server and not restart so if I need to add or replace a plugin I can stop the server properly and such. I do appreciate the help though and thank you again for helping getting the script working at least.
You can cancel the startup by doing "Ctrl+C", whilst it is sleeping for the 5 seconds. (As long as you're in the console. All good. Good luck.
Hey guys, if you having trouble using the restart script, you can use this method: First, rename your .bat file to "Run.bat" Then, in the spigot.yml: Set the "restart-script" to "Run.bat" Run the server and try the "/restart" command. If the server failed to restart, there might be a misspelled things... All done. I hope it works for you guys
4 years old but this is still good info, does this work in ubuntu as well or just a windows thing? Also, is there a restart script that works for forge 1.12.2 as I also have a forge server.
Hello, I just want to help, I post the solution I have found myself, because Internet doesn't give the best solution, spigot.yml execute with bash interpreter, and it has the time to execute only the first line, so you need to create the screen, go the directory and launch the jar in the same line (It took 3 days to me to find this solution). This is my code for a simple start with the .sh in the same folder of my jar, my server's name is "test": Spoiler: Code Code (Text): #!/bin/bash screen -dmS test bash -c 'cd /home/minecraft/serveurs/test/ && exec -a "test" java -Xms1G -Xmx2G -jar Spigot.jar'
