Updated server to 1.17, won't start #421

Closed wilhelmsturmer closed 3 years ago

I downloaded the 1.17 jar file, pointed the existing server to it, but each time I attempt to start the server it fails. I'm not seeing errors being generated in logs either. Please assist.

It could be that you're not using java 16, as that is what Minecraft requires since 1.17. If you don't have it installed, you can try installing it using sudo apt install openjdk-16-jre. You might also have to select it as the default Java version by using sudo update-alternatives --config java.

Thank you very much, this fixed my issue!
