Toshiba Sattelite C55T [4GB model], Ubuntu 18.04 Desktop

 Description   

Simple as that - when attempting to launch the dedicated server on Ubuntu 18.04, I get the error "Failed to load vanilla resource pack, is the vanilla pack missing from the loaded world?"

It also fails to find server.properties and whitelist.json, which I assume is causing problems.

Pressing return causes the terminal window to return to bash and printsΒ Quit correctly in the window.

Additional note: I tried running the server with sudo and without sudo, both times it fails at the exact same point.

Is this still an issue in the latest version? If so, can you please add it to the affected versions (or mention it if you are not the reporter).
This ticket will automatically reopen when you reply.

You need to launch the server directly from within the folder it was extracted to. Starting it from another location with absolute path parameter (e.g. /srv/minecraft as path while in home folder) threw the same error as you have.
