Minecraft Server With Custom Maps...

[dhruvg102]

This Question seems really dumb to ask since I can't find an answer so I assume its just very simple to do. But I am new to minecraft server hosting in general. Here's the issue:-

I am trying to get a Skyblock Minecraft server up and running so my friends and I can play together. I am using docker compose and the image from

itzg/docker-minecraft-server which works just fine for a normal vanilla map.

But as soon I try to ass the skyblock map files from Skyblock-1.20-Map it all just stops working. (Log Attached below)

I am sure its either a folder hierarchy issue or I just don't understand the yaml file or probably both so any help is appreciated.

The Folder Structure is attached as well.

P.S. I tried putting the map under a world folder but that didnt work.

The Docker Compose File: (minecraftdata is a premade docker volume.)

version: "3.8"

services:

mc:

image: itzg/minecraft-server

volumes:

• minecraftdata:/data

• /home/Minecraft/SKYBLOCK-1.20/*:/data/world

tty: true

stdin_open: true

ports:

• "25565:25565"

environment:

EULA: "TRUE"

volumes:

minecraftdata:

external: true

There are a couple of things wrong with volume entry

/home/Minecraft/SKYBLOCK-1.20/*:/data/world

1. You can't use a wildcard * in the volume mount source. Take a look at the Docker docs for more info on volume mounts.
2. You can't mount /data/world as a subdirectory of an existing volume mount at /data

Instead make use of https://docker-minecraft-server.readthedocs.io/en/latest/misc/world-data/#cloning-world-from-a-container-path

Hi sorry been working away at this. I was able to find examples/docker-compose-world-download which seems to be perfect except using the file does not seem to make any changes.

Instead make use of cloning-world-from-a-container-path
I will next try to use this resource see where that leads me.

Please clarify the latest that you tried. Also be aware that it won't overwrite an existing world directory that exists, so you'll need to stop the container and remove the world directory.

I have got the server working on my local network. The docker-compose.yml looks like this

version: "3.8"

services:
mc:
image: itzg/minecraft-server
volumes:
- minecraftdata:/data
tty: true
stdin_open: true
ports:
- "25565:25565"
environment:
EULA: "TRUE"
VERSION: "1.20.1"
MEMORY: "5G"

  OVERRIDE_ICON: "TRUE"

  restart: unless-stopped

volumes:
minecraftdata:
external: true

I had to restart the container and remove the docker volume and make a new one.
