Need help with Startup script for RAMdisk for modded server
InuYasha86000
I recently went looking around the net checking out how to do a "safe" RAMdisk server using Ubuntu, I tried to create my own startup script (start.sh) and run it but it just errors out in general java, and I am unable to see the error as this server is all command line (no GUI) and I cannot go up the screen.
Here is a copy of the code in the script:
I have no idea what is wrong with the code as this is my first attempt at trying to start a RAMdisk server. This is for my own modpack and it's running Thermos server if that helps.
As I said before there are no logs that I can find, all I know is I type in console: Start/.sh (or some variant, I don't remember right now) and the screen just fills up with java error and the Thermos server never even tries to start up.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on or what I may have messed up?
Here is a copy of the code in the script:
Start.sh
#!/bin/bash
java -Xms1024M -Xmx4096M
java -XX:SurvivorRatio=2
java -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -d64
java -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC
java -XX:+AggressiveOpts
java -jar Thermos-1.7.10-1614-server.jar
#Start Action
rsync -a --delete-after /minecraft/ /srv/minecraft/
start-minecraft
#Stop Action
stop-minecraft
rsync -a --delete-after /srv/minecraft/ /minecraft/
screen -p 0 -S minecraft -X eval 'stuff "save-all"\015'
rsync -a --delete-after /srv/minecraft/ /minecraft/
I have no idea what is wrong with the code as this is my first attempt at trying to start a RAMdisk server. This is for my own modpack and it's running Thermos server if that helps.

Does anyone have an idea how to fix those java instructions that appear after starting the RAMdisk start.sh?
And creating a shutdown script as well.

ok, I FINALLY managed to get the errors from when I try ./start.sh:
[EDIT]For the most part it seems to be working, RAMdisk seems to be running properly and it seems to do backups every 15 minutes (at least according to what filezilla shows, showing accessed times every 15 minutes on the world), the only thing now is to make sure I have a proper shutdown script, I can somewhat feel my way around a startup script but a shutdown script, especially with a RAMdisk is going to be tricky, if anyone could help with that, and why I get that error at the start of my script, that would be great.

Java as far as I know is updated, the script works with just the Java -jar coding, it's when I tried to edit it to use RAMdisk that it screws up, and minecraft shows no error log with the startup script as it doesn't even get a chance to try start before java itself gives the console errors.

there should be a log in the minecraft folder that should have all the errors and stuff in it, and just try using
java -jar -Xmx4096M Thermos-1.7.10-1614-server.jar
and is your java updated, java -version should say 1.8.something something
just trying to minimize everything possible

The original script I use for basic startup has that #bin in it:
And I think I tried it like that once, I wish I could get a shot of all the errors when I try to start the script.
It's running on Ubuntu server 16 if that helps any as well.
Original Start.sh
#!/bin/bash

try it without
#!/bin/bash
that might be causing some issues, and have you tried putting all the java args on 1 line like you have got with the ram settings?

1, I don't think i've had it run in the RAMdisk as this script is supposed to copy the existing server files over into the RAMdisk.
2, no I have not as this is all command line and this command is supposed to backup the files every 15 minutes back to the hard drive as well.
Pretty much I haven't tried anything much other than trying the script, for the most part I tried to follow This Page:https://kromey.us/2011/08/running-a-minecraft-server-from-a-ram-disk-452.html explaining with some code how to make the start script that copies and backups the files to and from the RAMdisk.

question 1. does it have the same error when not running on a ramdisk?
question 2. have u tryed using a more simple solution like moving the server to the ramdisk then starting it like you would normally?
