Solved Help starting Server

Every time I try to start my server, it gives me the error:

Code:

./bin/php7/bin/php: error while loading shared libraries: /home/mcpe/bin/php7/bin/php/../lib/libz.so.1: file too short

php bin: https://jenkins.pmmp.io/job/PHP-7.2-Linux-x86_64/
PocketMine-MP .phar: https://jenkins.pmmp.io/job/PocketMine-MP/

Maybe I got the wrong php bin?

Spoiler: Server's php version

My server's php version (php -v):

Code:

PHP 7.0.23-1-dotdeb+8.1 (cli) ( NTS ) Copyright (c) 1997-2017 The PHP Group Zend Engine v3.0.0, Copyright (c) 1998-20117 Zend Technologies with Zend OPcache v7.0.23-rdotdeb48.12 Copyright (c) 1999-2017, by Zend Tec hnologies

I'm using Debian 8.0.

Spoiler: My start.sh file

How my start.sh file looks like:

Code:

#!/bin/bash
DIR="$(cd -P "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )" && pwd)"
cd "$DIR"

DO_LOOP="yes"

while getopts "p:f:l" OPTION 2> /dev/null; do
    case ${OPTION} in
        p)
            PHP_BINARY="$OPTARG"
            ;;
        f)
            POCKETMINE_FILE="$OPTARG"
            ;;
        l)
            DO_LOOP="yes"
            ;;
        \?)
            break
            ;;
    esac
done

if [ "$PHP_BINARY" == "" ]; then
    if [ -f ./bin/php7/bin/php ]; then
        export PHPRC=""
        PHP_BINARY="./bin/php7/bin/php"
    elif [[ ! -z $(type php) ]]; then
        PHP_BINARY=$(type -p php)
    else
        echo "Couldn't find a working PHP 7 binary, please use the installer."
        exit 1
    fi
fi

if [ "$POCKETMINE_FILE" == "" ]; then
    if [ -f ./PocketMine-MP.phar ]; then
        POCKETMINE_FILE="./PocketMine-MP.phar"
    elif [ -f ./src/pocketmine/PocketMine.php ]; then
        POCKETMINE_FILE="./src/pocketmine/PocketMine.php"
    else
        echo "Couldn't find a valid PocketMine-MP installation"
        exit 1
    fi
fi

LOOPS=0

set +e
while [ "$LOOPS" -eq 0 ] || [ "$DO_LOOP" == "yes" ]; do
    if [ "$DO_LOOP" == "yes" ]; then
        "$PHP_BINARY" "$POCKETMINE_FILE" $@
    else
        exec "$PHP_BINARY" "$POCKETMINE_FILE" $@
    fi
    if [ "$DO_LOOP" == "yes" ]; then
        if [ ${LOOPS} -gt 0 ]; then
            echo "Restarted $LOOPS times"
        fi
        echo "To escape the loop, press CTRL+C now. Otherwise, wait 5 seconds for the server to restart."
        echo ""
        sleep 5
        ((LOOPS++))
    fi
done

Maybe you can help?

 

looks like an issue with the Jenkins build...
You can try to build it yourself:
First install dependencies by running

Code:

apt-get install make autoconf automake libtool m4 wget getconf gzip bzip2 bison g++

and then run

Code:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pmmp/php-build-scripts/master/compile.sh
./compile.sh -t linux64 -l -j4 -c -f x86_64

-j<num> should be your core/thread count.

Then, you should have a new bin located in the folder where you executed these commands.

 

When I try to start the server it says I need to use php 7.2 or higher. Is this now for php 7.0 or 7.2?

 

Yes, we have moved over to PHP7.2 so you will need to get PHP 7.2 now.

 

that's weird these commands should have installed 7.2. Can you post the output these commands did give you?

 

I knew what the problem was: I stopped the installer in the middle while the files were still uploading (it took a long while to finish, and I thought it froze, and closed it).

 

Although this isn't the problem here, there's no guarantee php - v is displaying the PHP version of your server...

 

Probably try to do a complete install of PHP again,

You can purge PHP and its file by doing,

Code:

sudo apt-get remove --purge php*

ReInstall PHP 7.2 use ondrej/php.

Then try to run PMMPs PHP Bin installation again.

I don't know if the above `apt-get remove --purge` works for you as I have not used Debian or have any clue how it works but it will for Ubuntu 16.04!

 

Forgot the add the add Solved tag, everything's working now! Thanks @robske_110 (Tim) for your help!

 

Awesome!
