Minetest Forums

OK, so i created a /worlds folder and i am able to access my old world!

now i need to get my mods working
i moved my old mods folders to /home/12Me22/minetest/mods/minetest/ but they are not working

appears to be done. My old server had this: /home/12Me22/.minetest/worlds/world
Where in the new folder structure do I place the /worlds folder?

there is not currently a worlds folder in my new ~/mintest directory

ok move the files from recipe to ~/minetest and completed the other steps

my bad
i was logged in as root when i made the directory

so i went back a few steps and made the directory under my user
now at step 7
i am not getting the recipe extracted to ~/minetest

Thx. I am going to rebuild this weekend. Based on how I previously installed, how should I uninstall my current minetest? Is it as simple as deleting the .minetest and /usr/share/minetest folders?

Hmm, I don't know how you compiled it but this reference is probably owned by root: /build/buildd/minetestc55-0.4.6/src/server.cpp :104: virtual void* ServerThread::Thread(): Assertion '0' failed. I followed the README.txt file and didn't have any problems at all on Mint 13. Everything worked fine ...

So the world and gamed get created by running that or do you have to create and populate some folder structure on the server first? Mine is running world = minetest and gameid= minimal I think my map is missing elements because of the minimal designation. From what I have read, once the world is cre...

I start minetest with this and it appears to be running gameid minimal:

sudo nohup minetest --server --config /home/12Me22/.minetest/minetest.conf



Should I try sudo nohup minetest --server --common --config /home/12Me22/.minetest/minetest.conf

Can anyone tell me how you specify the world that gets used when you create your own server? Mine ended up being minimal and I would prefer it to be common. Thanks.

VanessaE , Can you help me with this script? I have my worldname and gamed I just don't know where to put the script. Thanks I use this (with stuff specific to my needs filled-in, of course): #!/bin/bash while true do sleep 1 minetestserver --config /path/to/your/minetest.conf \ --worldname name_of_...

I found if use "minetest --gamed list" I can verify that. Do you know where I put that cron job? Is it a cron job?

I am new to Minetest and am working with 12Me21 to create our own server and I have a few questions about this cron job. -how do I determine my worldname and gameid? -where do i store this cron job? cron.d? Thanks! I use this (with stuff specific to my needs filled-in, of course): #!/bin/bash while ...
