dear people,

 thank you! i think i'm almost there, I get an error: No such file or directory. i if i use the command from the terminal it works fine.

What could it be?

restart_command = "cd /home/ubuntu/ ; bash start.sh"

I can't seem to get the mod to work- whenever the server crashes, it stays on the "generating crash log" command line and stalls there until I forcibly close the server and restart it manually. Whenever I attempt to have the server auto restart, it will count down to the restart in chat, and then the server will just close and not restart.

My auto_restart-server.toml config file:

#Options for restarting:
[restart]
	#Is the server started by an external restart script?
	use_external_restart_script = true
	#Command that is executed on Server stopped to restart the server. Only called if "[restart, use_external_restart_script]" is false.
	restart_command = ""

#Option for auto restarting:
[auto_restart]
	#Should the Server do automatic restarts?
	enabled = true
	#Times in 24-hour format on which the server will automatically restart
	times = ["12:00"]
	#Should the server be automatically restarted when it crashes.
	on_crash = true

My restart_loop.cmd

echo OFF

    SET /p should_restart=<./auto_restart/restart
    if %should_restart% EQU 0 goto stop
    echo If you want to stop the server completely, press STRG-C, \before the countdown is at 1!
    echo Rebooting in:
    timeout /T 5 /nobreak
    echo 'Server restarts!'
    goto start
:stop

And my restart_start.cmd

cd "C:\java is mean"
start .\restart_loop.cmd

I really can't seem to figure out what's wrong here. Any help is appreciated!

 oh i start the server by running 

serverstart.bat with the following

"c:\program files\java\java8\bin\java.exe" -Xms4G -Xmx4G -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+ParallelRefProcEnabled -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=200 -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch -XX:G1NewSizePercent=30 -XX:G1MaxNewSizePercent=40 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=8M -XX:G1ReservePercent=20 -XX:G1HeapWastePercent=5 -XX:G1MixedGCCountTarget=4 -XX:InitiatingHeapOccupancyPercent=15 -XX:G1MixedGCLiveThresholdPercent=90 -XX:G1RSetUpdatingPauseTimePercent=5 -XX:SurvivorRatio=32 -XX:+PerfDisableSharedMem -XX:MaxTenuringThreshold=1 -Dusing.aikars.flags=https://mcflags.emc.gs -server -Daikars.new.flags=true -jar forge-1.16.5-36.1.31.jar nogui 

is that an issue?

In reply to GeheimagentNr1:

 oh, i see- i'll try that!

In reply to GeheimagentNr1:

Yup, that fixed it! 

Although, it does seem to take a few minutes to go from packaging the crash log to restarting the server.

when will this be available for 1.17?

Hi, I have a question/issue

I have:

use_external_restart_script = false
restart_command = "C:\Users\angelo\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\run.bat"

My run.bat is set to:

java -Xmx10G -Xms10G -jar forge-1.16.5-36.1.4.jar nogui

When I launch the server using Run.bat, it loads every mod but closes at the end due to the restart script. When I set restart_command = "" then the server runs, and shuts down using the restart mod at the correct times in the config, but never starts again. What's the issue with my Run.bat file? is it the wrong format?

In reply to GeheimagentNr1:

 Unfortunately, the server still closes after it finishes loading. I added the line you suggested in the Run.bat file, this is what the server console shows:

https://imgur.com/a/EypgNVS

It says the directory is invalid. The Run.bat is in the same folder as the server, if this helps.

Hello, I'm getting the same issue, my ServerStart.bat shows;

@echo off
rem Valhelsia 3 Server Startup Script

rem Edit the below values to change JVM Arguments or Allocated RAM for the server.
set ALLOCATED_RAM=6G
set JVM_ARGUMENTS=-XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+UnlockExperimentalVMOptions -XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=100 -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -XX:TargetSurvivorRatio=90 -XX:G1NewSizePercent=50 -XX:G1MaxNewSizePercent=80 -XX:G1MixedGCLiveThresholdPercent=50 -XX:+AlwaysPreTouch

rem Make sure this matches the Forge version of the server if you update.
set FORGE_VERSION=forge-1.16.5-36.1.23

rem Install Minecraft Forge if it isn't already installed:
if not exist .\%FORGE_VERSION%.jar (
echo Installing Minecraft Forge Server
java -jar %FORGE_VERSION%-installer.jar --installServer
)

echo Starting Valhelsia 3 Server
java -jar -Xms%ALLOCATED_RAM% -Xmx%ALLOCATED_RAM% %JVM_ARGUMENTS% %FORGE_VERSION%.jar nogui

If I change that last line to read;

"cd C:\Users\gbran\Downloads\Valhelsia 3 Server\Valhelsia 3-3.3.2a-SERVER" java -jar -Xms%ALLOCATED_RAM% -Xmx%ALLOCATED_RAM% %JVM_ARGUMENTS% %FORGE_VERSION%.jar nogui

the console window flashes for a split second but disappears

I've also tried;

cd "C:\Users\gbran\Downloads\Valhelsia 3 Server\Valhelsia 3-3.3.2a-SERVER" java -jar -Xms%ALLOCATED_RAM% -Xmx%ALLOCATED_RAM% %JVM_ARGUMENTS% %FORGE_VERSION%.jar nogui

and;

cd C:\Users\gbran\Downloads\Valhelsia 3 Server\Valhelsia 3-3.3.2a-SERVER java -jar -Xms%ALLOCATED_RAM% -Xmx%ALLOCATED_RAM% %JVM_ARGUMENTS% %FORGE_VERSION%.jar nogui

with the same results.. I feel like it's me making an obvious error, but I'm a relative beginner at this.
