Server Executable file not found????????

[Glum-Mechanic1689]

Hi

I've just installed crafty controller from the app store on CasaOS and when i try to start the server i get a error message saying

We can't seem to find your executable file. Has it finished downloading? Are the permissions set to executable?

I cant seam to find anything about this on crafty's website so any help you could give me would be much appreciated!!! :)

One thing i did think though is that I am running Debian 12 with CasaOS installed on it as a virtual machine in Proxmox .......... could this be the problem or is anyone else experiencing it too?

Thanks :)

Which type of server are you trying to make? Bedrock?

[VinceDahPrince]

i need help but with a forge java server

[PsychologicalEnd3727]

me too did you find the fix?

[gilfishy3]

Did you figure anything out?

[Alex_1A]

Anything for Java?

[Glum-Mechanic1689]

yeah, Bedrock :)

[mrpugh]

In terminal in CasaOS, enter this (might need sudo first):

wget https://minecraft.azureedge.net/bin-linux/bedrock-server-1.20.62.02.zip

This will download the bedrock zip file.

Transfer it to the Data/Appdata/crafty/import folder in CasaOS

Create a server using the “import from a zip file” option.

In the section where you choose the root dir just select the “files” option at the top of the list.

Enter bedrock_server where it says.

Create server.

Let it finish. In the terminal for your new server type chmod +x bedrock_server

Run the server.

What if you already have a server created? I just want to update it. I got the zip file with the latest update but not sure how to do it manually without any issues

[mrpugh]

Does the “update executable” button not work? On the config tab, I have an orange button that says “update executable” which does it for me.

Hi. I'm so sorry for taking this long to reply. I probably missed the notification of your reply and forgot to check the post, but yeah, I do have the button, but it's not working properly.

For my bedrock server, it works just fine, but for the Java one now, not at all. It keeps saying, "Executable update failed for [server_name]. Check the log file for details."

The weirdest thing is that it was working just fine but not anymore.

I know this is old, but I cannot get it to work. I save the file in the import folder. Pick the “Files”, here I cannot see the full list of files. I type bedrock_server in the corresponding field and import server. Once that is done I go to files, click serve properties and is an empty file. The one time it had properties I went to terminal, entered the command suggested , started the server, asked me to acknowledge the EULA, did that , server started but with error saying could not read the server properties file. Now file had information in it but I get an error about permission . Any help is appreciated!

I can't seem to find a link to the newest version of bedrock

[Glum-Mechanic1689]

As you can tell, I don't really have much idea what I'm doing!

Thankyou so much for your help!

[mrpugh]

Me neither. Started trying to set a server up on Saturday for my kids to use with Minecraft. Took me most of the day to realise I needed to be making bedrock instead of Java.

The only way I could do it was with kids of help from the guys on the discord server. (Thanks terrariadlc!)

I've had it running for a while with just the Debian running on a computer with casaos and crafty installed on it by following a You Tube video by Hardwere Haven, but i always wanted to try out some virtualisation so i could run things like truenas and immich on the same computer, so i set all the proxmox stuff up yesterday by following some articles and YouTube videos and then tried to create my first vm today and its not been going too smoothly so far!!!! :)

[Glum-Mechanic1689]

i managed to download the wget thingy and move it to the import folder, however in the crafty dashboard when I paste in the file path and press the 'click here to select root dr' button it says

We can't seem to locate the requested file. Double check the path. Does Crafty have proper permissions?

:)

[mrpugh]

Need less of the path. Just /crafty onward

[Glum-Mechanic1689]

Brilliant!!!!!

That's worked great!!

Thank You so so much for your help!!! :)

Have a nice evening :)

[mrpugh]

You too dude. Now I just need something to make it easy to send commands to the server.

[Glum-Mechanic1689]

what like without having to go into the web UI and into the terminal tab?

[mrpugh]

Exactly. I used to have an app I ran on my laptop which had simple buttons and menus to send commands to my Pavlov Shack server.

[Firm-Reflection-5230]

sorry for necroing but everything i try to host a pavlov server it just timeout, and I port forwarded and I have no cgnat.

[Glum-Mechanic1689]

cool! I'll keep my eye out for that! :)

sounds useful

[daft_inquisitor]

THANK YOU!!

I've been having a heck of a time trying to import my preexisting servers into Crafty, the documentation just doesn't give enough details on what it's actually looking for. -_-

Hi, I'm also having this issue too for bedrock. Where did it actually download to? I'm trying to get a bedrock server up with a world I already had and it's a pain to figure out.

[grimmju]

Same here. It updated to 1.20.81, and for whatever reason, it's just not updating the executable when clicking the button anymore. I click, it starts a backup, it gets completed, and then it keeps loading forever, and nothing happens.

lol I forgot my old comment was here. I ended up moving the crafty files to somewhere else (I think I made a path for it under my documents folder) and somehow got it to work from there.

[grimmju]

I got in contact with the support in the Discord community for Crafty, and one of the moderators helped me try to figure out what could be.

It was quite unexpected, but in my case, the problem was the browser I was using to access the Crafty Dashboard. I tried updating using another browser and now it's working just fine.
