TCAdmin setup on linux

[kroko]

hey. i got a task to make a minecraft server and i want to host it myself. in the past i would just install tcadmin myself but that was when i had licence to windows server and i dont got that anymore. therefor i am looking for someone who can set up tcadmin on any version of your chosing and if needed help me install things like java required for the minecraft game server to run. i plan on buying a dedecated from soyoustart (https://www.soyoustart.com/us/) with 32gb ram. the minecraft server will have 20 dedicated to it. i am ofcause whilling to pay for the help however i am not rich. if anyone is interrested then let me hear

[Dennis]

We've made a automatic installer script for Linux. See more information here: https://help.tcadmin.com/Installation#Automated_TCAdmin_installer_for_Linux

It's still very new, so if you have any issues, please let me know.

The Minecraft config that ships with TCAdmin has a ton of features - it ships with Java 8, 11, 16 and 17 and TCAdmin will automatically try to start the server using the correct version of Java depending on what version of Minecraft you're using. You basically just install TCAdmin and you're good to go.

thanks. i will give it a go myself then

[kroko]

i gave it a try myself and is stuck. i installed all requirements but when it comes to install tc admin it self it says i dont got the rights. i should be root but it seems im not, so smething went wrong there. therefore i am still looking for help if anyone is whilling

Could you paste the output of the installation script?

You're not using the automated installer, and you're not executing the commands as root.

$ sudo -i
# cd /home && curl -o tcadmin-installer.sh https://downloads.tcadmin.net/installer/tcadmin-installer.sh && sh tcadmin-installer.sh -i

That is all you need to do.

when i am at the web interface and typed in licence key, name and company i get this. i assume its because i need to renew my licence?

(-2) The maximum version allowed for your license is 2.0.119.0. Please renew your license or downgrade your installation with these instructions: http://help.tcadmin.com/Updating#Manual_Update

 

[Dennis]

Yes, you will need to either renew the license or downgrade your version of TCAdmin.

[kroko]

have anything major change happend? i am really at a place right now where money is extremly tight.

[Dennis]

A lot. Check the releases forum: https://community.tcadmin.com/forum/63-releases/

[kroko]

i might renew it next month. right now i cant afford it. do you know the linux command to restart the service? i am trying to downgrade tcadmin but it wont apply it

[Dennis]

The update command will automatically stop and start TCAdmin.

You can manually restart with the following command:

/home/tcadmin/Monitor/monitor-service restart

 

[kroko]

thanks alot for your help

[kroko]

ofcause it cant be easy ^^ 

i have now installed tc admin and its running however a fresh install of a craftbukkit server makes a server with a startup error. unfortunetly i did not see a spigot version. thats whan i really need. do you by any chance have a spigot config that actually works?

Edit:

i instlled the minecraft config and installed spigot using the mod manager. however it throws me this 

TCAdmin.SDK.Remote.RemoteException: Could not find file "/home/tcagame_svc3/admin/3/spigot.jar" ---> System.Exception: Could not find file "/home/tcagame_svc3/admin/3/spigot.jar" --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at TCAdmin.Monitor.Standard.WebServices.ServiceManager.Start (System.Int32 serviceId, System.String description, System.String userName, System.String clientIP) [0x000a9] in <0be831333df548ba1bc5a13fa7cf3aa1>:0 at (wrapper managed-to-native) System.Reflection.RuntimeMethodInfo.InternalInvoke(System.Reflection.RuntimeMethodInfo,object,object[],System.Exception&) at System.Reflection.RuntimeMethodInfo.Invoke (System.Object obj, System.Reflection.BindingFlags invokeAttr, System.Reflection.Binder binder, System.Object[] parameters, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture) [0x0006a] in <de882a77e7c14f8ba5d298093dde82b2>:0

 

Edit2: the automatic installer dont work out of the box for me but no worries. i just installed it and then fetched the spigot version and uploaded it my self. everything seems to work now
