Dedicated server Fail to start Linux

A new update is now available, introducing seasons and more!
  • When I try to start the server using the script I get the following error

    Code
    :~/Downloads/server$ sh ./linux_startscript.sh
    ./linux_startscript.sh: 13: ./linux_startscript.sh: Syntax error: "(" unexpected


    If I try to start the server straight from the jar file I get the following:


    I have followed the instructions at UPDATED: Linux Dedicated Server Startup Guide


    what do I need to do to get this running? I'm using java 8 on an ubuntu 14.10 system.

  • Server bind to IP: *.*.*.*:4255


    It would seem that the IP in the server.properties can't be used by the server. I accidently stumpled upon this yesterday when I tried assigning an IP to one of our game servers that was located on another machine. Exact same error as java.net.BindException: Cannot assign requested address

  • SEVERE: Unable to determine mac address: java.lang.NullPointerException


    Can you post your config.properties (at least the part where you define IP and port)?


    Looks like it has problems binding to the interface/ip.


    Also if you want to use the startscript try: # bash ./linux_startscript.sh start <Name>
    That doesn't explain the syntax error in line 13 tho. Have you modified it?
