Arch Linux User Repository

To get an overview of the available options provided by the management script, be sure to have a look at the help page or read the according section on the ArchWiki article [1].

You can quit the console without shutting down the server by press ctrl+a d (first ctrl+a and after releasing the buttons press d; ctrl+b also works). This will detach your input from the server console. The attaching and detaching is done with tmux (previously GNU screen) since it lets you view and type into the console, send single commands to it and keep it alive without a connected user. Take a look at the the command overview at the ArchWiki [2] to get a feel for its power. (@carmelo12341)

@Wunkolo Thanks for the request! That sounds like a decent suggestion. I will add such an option with the next Minecraft release.

Just a request: but when making the automated tar backups can there perhaps be an option to provide our own tar options? In particular. I want to be able to make the minecraft backups using zstd as opposed to the default tar options which are proving to be quite slow during the "Remove leading" step.

@jpefxguy The server is already running as the unprivileged minecraft user! As far as I know, /usr/lib/systemd/user/ serves a different purpose and is merely used for user-services of users who can actually log into a system.

AFAIK the server doesn't need to run as root. I suggest moving the service files to /usr/lib/systemd/user/ instead.

@Ketchup901 I am pretty sure that I build the package in a clean environment before pushing. Can you please make sure that you have no remnant, like e.g. the previously download 1.14.3 jar file, in your folder.

Again with the failed checksum validation

@ProdigySim It should be fixed now. My build directory was still polluted by the old file with the invalid nonce. Sorry again!

@edh Thanks for the quick updates! Now it looks like the SHA512sum is not updated... I get a validation error when installing.

I think it should be: 9670c1038aa23c3012241a5a103ab5a3e989efcb13edd45f318f92e9968f5f2e99314d3edd0c6851238772e2e1cc5b4bdaeac686a7622e321ac81bf40e2a3cf7

@ProdigySim

Sorry about that. I simply forgot to update the nonce value.
