Is there a way to access the webpanel remotely?

https://<your server's ip here>:8080

you need to have forwarded port 8080, but you probably did that when you were forwarding the port for the game.

Hey guys, is this happening after a reboot or after you map?

I think it started when I did a sudo reboot without doing sudo filetool.sh -b first.
There were definitely maps at first.

p.s. Don't reply to me telling me how to fix it, this is only a bug report..

um, how DO you fix it?

now 'I' got a bug...
my symlink in /var/www/httpdocs/ disappeared..

I have the same bug (I think). When i go to http://box/ I used to see my maps, but now its just empty.
As an aside, my mapping function takes well over 5 minutes to compete. I chalk that up to a slow CPU and a user who walked miles and miles in one direction so now the map has a really lopsided shape.

here is the list of admin_console.py commands from the MineOS site.

Its not 100% accurate anymore, but its still good.

I do have a lot of plugins i.e. 20+

but often when I disconnect after 20 mins of playing or so, it says by me leaving I have freed in excess of 300mb on the server so I would be conservative over 100mb per player.

i should probably add that im running vanilla server with no mods at all.

i think 250mb per user is very excessive.

see here where he says 100mb per user is the UPPER limit needed.

also see here where i have a server with half a gig of ram total running 2 players just fine.

to do a reinstall you need to boot form the dist, and use "sudo fdisk /dev/sda" and delete all your partitions, then do a "sudo reboot" and then install as usually..
or that's my experience at least?

I was trying to use cfdisk (the same thing the install script uses) and it told me that it didn't exist.

I've got a problem.

I'm installing this on my netbook, trying for a RAMdisk install. I get it to install and everything seems to install perfectly, but then when I do the first reboot to finish the installation I select MineOS+ from the GRUB bootloader and I get the following:

Booting 'MineOS+ x86'

root (hd0,2)
Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
kernel /boot/bzImage text quiet

Error 15: File not found

Press any key to continue...

Pressing any key to continue simply takes me back to GRUB bootloader whereupon the process repeats when I select the option to boot MineOS+.

Some help please?

I have exactly the same problem. During step 3 of the installation process, I got a "squash fs"-something error...
Will install again to note the error message down.
Why does it say the filesystem is ext2fs? I made sure to reformat the partition to ext3.

Would be grateful for any kind of help on this, since I think MineOS(+) is a fantastic idea and i would love to try it out.

I have run into both of these errors before. I think its because in the step where it asks for the name of the CD drive I put in the wrong thing. It's worth noting that when it says "Best guess /hdc", simply hitting enter will NOT default to the best guess. It will be blank but continue on silently until it fails further down the road.

I also find that to reinstall, the harddrive must be wiped clean of its partitions, as booting from the MineOS+ install media will behave differently when there are already partitions from a previous attempt. I use a DOS boot disk to clear the disk. MineOS+ itself should be able to wipe the disk, but I can't get the partition tools to work when MineOS+ is in its 'funny' state.

You must have a backup created first to load. Run the backup command once, then try.

I already have a bunch of backups (my crontab works).
After a reboot, I can manually click restore and start and then it works fine.

Quote from Phant0mX »

To my knowledge, world one is restored and started automatically at boot currently (same status bug applies), but I don't have time to confirm right now.

I can confirm that it is not :/
This is when I click status right after a reboot.

Command:
     executing command: cgi-bin/server.cgi?command=status&world=one&argument=
Result:
     {'world': 'one', 'command': 'status'} world one: not-found

I found a small bug. When you hit start or stop, it displays the wrong status immediately afterwards, like this:

I think its just running the status command too soon after starting the world. If I click status after seeing this, it tells me the true status.

Also, where do I add the commands to restore and start the world automatically on boot. I saw that before but I forget where it was.

EDIT: heh, Phant0mX's ninja edit says the exact same thing :biggrin.gif:
A hacky fix would be to just add a time.sleep(2) command in there to slow things down.

Now I'm trying to confirm that backups are scheduled but I get this:

tc@box:~$ crontab -l
tc@box:~$ crontab -e
crontab: exec editor: No such file or directory

What's up?

That is saying you didn't actually create the crontab file.

Hexparrot forgot to mention that the default crontab editor in MineOS is VI, which is quite powerful and, but very hard to grok for Linux Newbies. In the step on his tutorial where it says save and exit, to do so in VI hit Esc, then type ":wq" and hit enter (you will see what you are typing in the bottom of the window after you hit the ":")

I will be changing the Linux default editor to NANO in the next update, since it is far less confusing.

Lol, I'm an idiot, I forgot to do sudo crontab -u tc -e first and went straight for crontab -e as I'm used to on my main machine. :tongue.gif:
As it happens, I like VI a lot, but I can see why noobs would be better off with NANO :smile.gif:

Here is my crontab now:

tc@box:~$ crontab -l
0,15,30,45 * * * * cd /usr/games/minecraft; python admin_console.py backup one
5 7 * * * cd /usr/games/minecraft; python admin_console.py removeolderthan one 672
35 7 * * * cd /usr/games/minecraft; python admin_console.py map one

There are 672 backups in a week if you take them every 15 minutes as I have. Daily tasks take place at 7 in the morning because I know none of my users will be on then. Also they are shifted 5 minutes so the backups at the top and bottom of the hour have time to finish.

Does the repair function work again? Has the script for that been updated? Is it even relevant in a post 1.3 world?

Good to hear about pruning :smile.gif:

I finally gave up on installing from USB. While the fix posted by bnm12 did get me to the point that I didn't need a CD in the drive, it would still end up failing later in the install. I'm going to blame USB version 1.0 hardware on the computer being way too slow.

I have now burned MineOS 0.1.0 to a CD (had to buy more anyway :/ ) and it installed just fine.

Now I'm trying to confirm that backups are scheduled but I get this:

tc@box:~$ crontab -l
tc@box:~$ crontab -e
crontab: exec editor: No such file or directory

What's up?

here's something to add to the todo list:
clear out old backups. like that this guy mentions
