Installed with -DRUN_IN_PLACE=0 -DBUILD_CLIENT=0

It says the builtin.lua isn't there. Might want to check. It is in the default folder

There is not /usr/local/share/minetest like when you build a client. And there isn't builtin.lua anywhere.

According to your error its trying to find the builtin.lua file here: "/usr/local/data/builtin.lua". Which obviously this doesn't exist otherwise it would have found it.

Also is there a reason your trying to install the server rather than have it run in place? I find it much easier to manage with the server being run in place.

You need a client to run a server... The server doesn't have any mods/textures by default. Also, having a run in place server (or in .minetest, that's also nice) is much easier to manage. You need root access to edit /usr/local or /usr/share...

I can't build a client because server doesn't have X. Run-in-place works, I'll have to use that.

But I still think it's a bug. If server works run-in-place, it should work systemwide.

You need to build it with -DRUN_IN_PLACE=0 AND install it with so. You seem to currently have a -DRUN_IN_PLACE=1 build, because it refers to "../data".

This is the path it will use for builtin.lua; porting::path_data is "/usr/local/share/minetest" or similar for a properly built and installed version.

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

std::string builtinpath = porting::path_data + DIR_DELIM + "builtin.lua";
