Minecraft Server 1.8.8 and FreeBSD 10.1

meirick · Apr 4, 2016

Hi everyone,

I try to run a Minecraft server on a FreeBSD 10.2. I have a permission issue. I am running FreeBSD in a VM Esxi 6.0, and install the VMware tools. No problem. The minecraft server 1.8.8 was installed following this "old" tutorials : http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Tutorials/FreeBSD_startup_script

Code:

root@MinecraftServer:/usr/local/etc/rc.d # service minecraft status
env: /usr/local/etc/rc.d/minecraft: Permission denied

I change the permission to 0777 of the /usr/local/etc/rc.d/minecraft folder without success.

Code:

root@MinecraftServer:/usr/local/etc/rc.d # ls -l
total 44
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  368 Dec 13 13:13 mdnsd
-r-xr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  484 Dec 13 13:13 mdnsresponderposix
drwxrwxrwx  4 root  wheel  512 Apr  3 16:04 minecraft

-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  2 Apr  3 16:04 whitelist.json
drwxr-xr-x  7 root  wheel  512 Apr  3 17:18 world

If I start manualy the minecraft server by

Code:

/usr/local/bin/java -Xmx1024M -Xmx1024M -jar /srv/minecraft/minecraft_server.1.8.8.jar

I think is OK.

Could someone help me?

Thanks.

Could you post /usr/local/etc/rc.d/minecraft please?

This is NEVER a solution. Do not, ever, simply set the permissions to 777.

You probably should install the actual games/minecraft-server port instead of untarring it from some random website and grabbing a startup script from some random DynDNS link (whois(1) says it's broadband -- is that someone's house?)

I have done this a few times using the actual port, followed the instructions after the port is built and have never had an issue.
