    Minecraft RemoteToolkit
    -Less downtime, more fun for your players, more power to you!

    Are you a Minecraft server administrator? Do you value up-time and stability? Do you fancy the ability to remotely control your server, both in-game and out of game, in a myriad of useful ways from a plethora of different devices?
    If you answered yes to any of the above, then the Minecraft RemoteToolkit is for you!


    What the Minecraft RemoteToolkit Plugin and Wrapper do for you:
    • Provides almost perfect server uptime with no need for action from an owner/administrator!
    • Have your server save and restart at any time period with configurable restart warnings!
    • The Toolkit guarantees a restart within the set restart period, even if your server crashes, becomes unresponsive, or encounters a "SEVERE" exception!
    • Remotely control every function of the Toolkit, even from your smart phone!
    • Full remote console access via telnet with support for multiple terminal types!
    • Telnet daemon conforms to current Telnet related RFCs!
    • Customizable alert messages!
    • Fully extendable though 3rd party modules!
    • Full feature set works with most craftbukkit builds!
    • Most features work with any Minecraft server variation, even vanilla!
    • Telnet can be disabled!

    Hello. For some reason my in-game messages like "**SERVER IS RESTARTING**" and all that aren't turning up in purple like they used to last time I ran a server with RTK. They're white instead. Is this a plugin doing this or did it get changed from previous releases? Is there a way to customize the color? I do have "--log-strip-color" in my server arguments if that might be the cause.

    Also a suggestion, it would be nice if the documentation mentioned that leaving "auto-save-start:" and "auto-save-start:" blank removes the messages completely. I was slightly afraid to leave them blank thinking it would just print out a blank line or even cause the wrapper to crash.

    @Drift_91 If I recall correctly, bukkit started stripping color from server broadcasts a little while ago. In order to re enable them, I had to write a small hack into the plugin. On that note, are you sure the plugin is running? Also try to remove the "--log-strip-color" argument anyway, and see if that fixes it.

    Also as for the suggestion, I'm fairly certain that feature is unintentional ;). I'll add it to the documentation nonetheless.

    Similar issue on restarts. I pm'ed @drdanick lets hope this gets resolved.
     
  10. Hi,

    I don't know if this was adressed already on one of the 97 pages here:
    Are you aware, that the username and password are visible in the process list that *every* user can see.
    Due to security reasons this should be in the remote.properties file.

    Extreme scenario:
    A (malicious) plugin executes "ps faux ww" and sends this data to a remote host (smtp, http, whatever). 10 seconds later your minecraft server is compromised.

    @author: Can you fix that?

    Hello,
    It appears that a feature of the bukkit plugin breaks with Spigot 1.9.
    Code:

    Are you using the deprecated version of getOnlinePlayers()?

    Also one question: Is there a way I can disable it from kicking the players on restart? It's getting in the way of a plugin we have that sends the players to the hub when the server restarts.

    You may just need to update metrics if that is what I am seeing, or you just may need to compile with the spigot 1.9 API.

    Thanks.

    Hello there !

    We've been using this plug in and we've been really satisfied with auto saves and crash detection.
    Now, we are currently trying to add a small command line to save a specific file when the server is restarting. To do that, we tried to edit our "rtoolkit.sh" to perform command while restarting. To test that, we used a simple mkdir command to check if it works and... doesn't seem it works.

    When we use the restart command in game, the command seems to be ignored. To be clear, I'm approximately potato-level in unix and shell commands, so maybe I'm doing everything horribly wrong.

    This is the classic "rtoolkit.sh" file we're using :
    Code:
    #!/bin/bash
    
    USER=***
    PASS=***
    
    DIRECTORY=$(cd "`dirname "$0"`" && pwd)
    (cd "$DIRECTORY"; sleep 30 ; java -Xmx30M -Xms30M -XX:MaxPermSize=40M -jar Minecraft_RKit.jar ${USER}:${PASS})
    And this is the one with the mkdir test command :
    Code:
    #!/bin/bash
    
    USER=***
    PASS=***
    
    DIRECTORY=$(cd "`dirname "$0"`" && pwd)
    (cd "$DIRECTORY"; mkdir testdirectory ; sleep 30 ; java -Xmx30M -Xms30M -XX:MaxPermSize=40M -jar Minecraft_RKit.jar ${USER}:${PASS})
    Awkardly, when I simply run the "rtoolkit.sh" via terminal (our server is on Debian 8), the directory is made... Is it a permission issue ? (potato level, remember).

    Thanks in advance to anyone who could help.
    (and sorry for probably bad english)

    Pretty sure he is, considering how old this is. You can use the mentioned tool in the Spigot announcement to fix for now.

    The spigot tool does not work on the remotetoolkit plugin. The tool did work well on the Group Manger plugin. Is there anyway to fix it or do we need to wait for drdanick to fix the code?

    DO YOU NEED REMOTE-TOOL-KIT FOR MINECRAFT 1.9!

    Here is a Simple explanation of how to convert your Current RTK to 1.9.
    This has been tested and works on MacOSX.

    1. Download RTK from this forum post.
    2. Download BuildTools.jar from Spigot.
    3. Compile Spigot 1.9 with BuildTools.jar in order to get SpecialSource.jar & SpecialSource-2.jar respectively.
    4. Now create a Text document and make plain text. Use the Code below to paste into your text file.
      Code:
      #!/bin/bash
      cd "$( dirname "$0" )"
      java -jar BuildData/bin/SpecialSource.jar map -m CraftBukkit/deprecation-mappings.csrg -i MinecraftRKitPlugin.jar -o MinecraftRKitPlugin-fixed.jar
    5. Save your text file as a ".command" I believe this is ".bat" in windows.
    6. Now open Terminal and type in "chmod a+x " <-- Leave a space at the end and drop your ".command" into
      the terminal and hit enter. You now have appropriate permissions to run the ".command"
    7. Last but not least you need to take your "Minecraft_RKit.jar" and "MinecraftRKitPlugin.jar" and drop them
      into the folder where you compiled the spigot-1.9.jar.
    8. Now click the ".command" to convert the MinecraftRKitPlugin.jar part of the RTK plugin.
    9. To convert the other part you need to Edit your ".command" by replaceing the "MinecraftRKitPlugin" and
      "MinecraftRKitPlugin-fixed" with "Minecraft_RKit" and Minecraft_RKit-fixed".
    10. Now click the ".command" again!
    11. You should now have MinecraftRKitPlugin-fixed.jar and Minecraft_RKit-fixed.jar inside the folder
      where you compiled the spigot-1.9.jar.
    12. Rename you Plugins back to there Original names and Drop them into your 1.9 server.
    13. Done! Happy Modding!

    Here is a Image to help you in converting your RTK to 1.9.

    I've been using the BuildTools fix for all of my plugins and it's been working. But I get exceptions on this one. I'm using Release 10, Alpha 15.3, and I get the following exception from Minecraft_RTK:
    Exception in thread "main" java.util.zip.ZipException: duplicate entry: com/drdanick/McRKit/McRKitLauncher.class
    And the following exception from MinecraftRKitPlugin:
    Exception in thread "main" java.util.zip.ZipException: duplicate entry: com/drdanick/McRKit/plugin/LegacySupport.class
    If anyone could offer advice, I'd greatly appreciate it.
