Describe the problem

I'm getting this error when running docker compose with spigot.

Looks like spigot 1.21.9 is not available yet, or its given the wrong url to download.

I've downloaded and compiled the 1.21.9, but doesn't matter because when I run docker compose it try to download from https://cdn.getbukkit.org/spigot/spigot-1.21.9.jar instead of use the local version, wich I paste inside the server files.

If I don't set VERSION: 1.21.9 it runs 1.21.8 by default.

Is there something else to be done?

They don't have 1.21.9 there

I can't do anything about that.

Ok, so we wait for them.
Thanks.

Sorry I missed part of your original description. You can also have it build from source using a jdk image tag and https://docker-minecraft-server.readthedocs.io/en/latest/types-and-platforms/server-types/bukkit-spigot/#build-from-source

[pedrohstaub]

Sorry for the late reply, unfortunatelly doesn't work for me, tried and keep getting minecraft-server exited with code 1 (error).

:(

[itzg]

That's it? No other logs at all. Waiting for getbukkit is only option then.

[pedrohstaub]

Nope, just code 1. I guess we'll have to wait. Its okay, thanks for the help.

Tip: Use PaperMc over spigot but still has plugin compatibility
