Starting server deletes all start/stop/restart files

[troop61killbuck]

I downloaded today (12/16/2020) and whenever the server starts it deletes the following files (to my knowledge):

• bedrock_server
• libCrypto.so
• server.properties
• stop.sh
• restart.sh
• start.sh
• valid_known_packs.json

Having the same issue! The server starts successfully on first installation, however running "start.sh" or "restart.sh" cuases the above behaviour. Console shows:

Minecraft Bedrock server is up to date... Starting Minecraft server. To view window type screen -r Bearserver To minimize the window and let the server run in the background, press Ctrl+A then Ctrl+D`

The files noted in the OP are then gone from the minecraftbe folder and I have to reinstall, but to the same issue.

Something else of note is that when the server starts for the first time it appears as "Dedicated Server" in Minecraft rather than the server name that was chosen during installation.

Update: Reverting to the previous version of "start.sh" by removing ls -1tr | head -n -10 | xargs -d '\n' rm -f -- resolves the issue.

Confirmed issue here as well. Using 'SetupMinecraft.sh' created the proper running server. After stopping it with a Ctrl-C inside screen the using ./start.sh, files are removed from the server directory as part of the process to limit backups to 10. The command @10xOXR mentioned is operating on the server directory and not the backup directory. Looks like the update process is failing to find files to download.

Here's my output from running ./start.sh:

i am experiencing the same issue

Hey guys,

Sorry this was fixed. I had to make a hard path to the logs folder.
