    Still super-crashy.  Backed up world and I'm downloading it now - I'll see what I can find w/ MCedit.

    Don't need mc edit, but not saying mcedit can't do the job.
    Download a tool to the server with wget. One that lets you specify a backup zip file (one of our snapshots). Python should be installed, which is what one tool is written in. Make sure it supports .mca files
    And restore corrupted chunks to the backup version

    Ah I see a cool tool now, http://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/using-the-minecraft-region-fixer/ - I've already deleted the bad chunks in MCedit though and I'm recompressing the world file.  I just had to do it the hard way.  I'll see how this goes since I've already put the time in!

    OK - SERVER IS DOWN DELIBERATELY while I work on restoring the world.

    FFS deleting shit in FTP is god awful.  I uploaded it successfully, unzipped it successfully, and then saw there was that gdamn random _MACOSX folder that sometimes shows up... Oh, well, I'll just delete that since thats not anything important...  Nope, the world was actually in there.  So now I have to delete that and unzip again because I started to delete it and who knows what was lost.  Taking forever to delete all the 1000's of chunk files though.

    Just........ be patient and it'll all be ok.

    @helmerman.  That's all you're getting.

    screen sessions are being a little screwy - I'm looking into it.
  • nebbers
    Options
    I killed the screens but now the session won't bind the port 25565 like a good little server... says its already in use??  argh

    If anyone crashes the server again from voxel or WE negligence, you're getting temp banned.  I'm really tired of this.
