[Arch Linux] Server not responding

[archfan7411]

Hello,

I'm attempting to run a server (0.4.17.1) headless on a clean install of Arch Linux. However, when the server is running, I cannot connect to it (LAN.) Additionally, nothing is shown in the debug output. There are no errors when the server starts up.

Thank you all in advance for your assistance.

Do you have iptables/ufw in use?

I do have iptables installed, but I don't believe I'm using it for anything.

Make at /var/log a directory named

minetest

Change the user for the directory to minetest:minetest with

chown -r minetest:minetest /var/log/minetest

Edit the File

/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/minetest@.....service

and add at the line
[Service]
.
.
ExecStart=/usr/bin/minetestserver --config ....

the parameter:

--logfile /var/log/minetest/%i/debug.txt

Restart the server.
Now you have a log for minetest under arch-linux.

Greetings, Clyde.

Same issue here. Not using the minetest-server package though, compiled from source. Worked fine on Ubuntu.
