[Guide] L2J Server on Linux 2017

How to run L2j Hi5 server on Linux Debian/Ubuntu server operating systems.
################## Disclaimer ###########################
This guide IS NOT security based and it is for testing
only. Use at your own risk! Also this guide will not
describe how to install and configure game client.
#########################################################
Tested on Ubuntu/Debian server operating systems (01.12.2017).
From my personal experienceon VirtualBox minimal server requirements for few palyers:
1 VCPU
3G RAM
20 GB HDD
1) Install server operating system. I recommend keep as minimal as possible, install minimal server software + openssh-server.
2) Connect to your server via SSH client putty or other and preapre software:
$ apt-get install git-core openjdk-8-jdk vim htop dstat unzip$ mkdir ~/development $ mkdir ~/server $ cd ~/development/ $ git clone https://bitbucket.org/l2jserver/l2j_server.git $ git clone https://bitbucket.org/l2jserver/l2j_datapack.git $ cd ~/development/l2j_datapack $ ./gradlew$ cd ~/development/l2j_server/ $ ./gradlew $ mv ~/development/l2j_datapack/build/distributions/L2J_DataPack_2017-12-08.zip ~/server/ $ mv ~/development/l2j_server/build/distributions/L2J_Server_2017-12-08.zip ~/server/ $ cd ~/server/ $ unzip L2J_Server_2017-12-08.zip $ unzip L2J_DataPack_2017-12-08.zip $ mkdir ~/server/game/log $ mkdir ~/server/login/log $ chmod 750 ~/server/login/*.sh $ chmod 750 ~/server/game/*.sh$ sudo apt-get install mysql-server $ service mysql status $ netstat -anp | grep :3306 mysql> create database l2jgs; mysql> create database l2jls; mysql> grant insert, select, update, delete, alter, create, trigger, drop, index on l2jls.* to 'l2lsuser'@'localhost' identified by 'D0ntUs3SamePassw0rds'; mysql> grant insert, select, update, delete, alter, create, trigger, drop, index on l2jgs.* to 'l2gsuser'@'localhost' identified by 'MySup3rComplexPassw0rd';$ cd ~/server/sql/login/ $ for i in `ls | grep .sql`; do sudo mysql --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf l2jls < $i; done$ cd ~/server/sql/game/ $ for i in `ls | grep .sql`; do sudo mysql --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf l2jgs < $i; done 10) Edit config files and provide database user and password. .

I agree that bash/python script for automation is useful. But my goal was to show how to put all puzzle pieces together.
It is better to know what is under the hood at first, after that you can make your automation script for your own taste. But will see, maybe i will post some script for automation.

Can anyone help at this? Please??

building the server. FAIL. - related to Eclipse (check if you have same JRE version or JDK) and not to Linux.
@adamejs
You forgot to use nohup (for remote connections).

Solved. I just installed another version of Java (1.10+ to compile the server, while the datapack works with 1.8 ). Working with 2 Java environments works fine with me.
Just to have an idea: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/439 . 7-1-7?rq=1
But now I'm stuck at point 9 . Output is:
[xxx@new-host login]# for i in `ls | grep .sql`; do sudo mysql --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf l2jls < $i; done Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/debian.cnf Fatal error in defaults handling. Program aborted But Mysql server IS installed and active, previous steps are ok.
Google seems not to be helping..
