minetest-server for Debian
==========================
Since version 0.4.10+repack-3 Debian supports running multiple Minetest servers.
An unprivileged system-wide user, Debian-minetest, controls the server.
* The home directory of this user is /var/games/minetest-server.
* All log files are written to /var/log/minetest.
* The default server configuration is located at
/etc/minetest/minetest.conf.
systemd (default init system)
=============================
Debian's Minetest server supports template units. You can start multiple
servers by specifying the name of your configuration files on the command-line.
# This command will start the server with the default configuration,
# /etc/minetest/minetest.conf
systemctl start minetest-server@minetest.service
# For running a second PvP server, you can create another configuration
# file /etc/minetest/pvp.conf and then start the server with
systemctl start minetest-server@pvp.service
The new log file will then be written to /var/log/minetest/pvp.log.
SysV
====
You can start the server with default minetest.conf configuration by using the
service command.
service minetest-server start
and stop it with
service minetest-server stop
To disable the init script use the facilities provided by your init system. For
instance, under sysvinit, use
update-rc.d minetest-server disable
or under systemd, use
systemctl disable minetest-server@minetest.service
