I cant start my vanilla server

Are you running the commands as root, though?

yes, as I said I type root as username and the root password as password

Apologies, I didn’t see the post.
Which line did you get that error on? Can you run other bash commands?

when I type ‘‘cd/usr/games/minecraft/bin/bash update_webui.sh’’

it say ‘’-bash: cd/usr/games/minecraft/bin/bash: No shuch file or directory’’

I see the problem, you’ll need a space between cd and /usr…

well now it says: ‘’-bash: cd: /usr/games/minecraft/bin/bash: No such file or directory’’

Try this:
cd /usr/games/minecraft

Then:
/bin/bash update_webui.sh

/bin/bash: update_webui.sh: No such file or directory
Also, when I go in filezilla there is no bin file in minecraft

The first / denotes that you are calling for the root (main) directory which would have the bin directory.

So when you type: /bin/bash *file name* what you are telling the computer is “go to the main directory and look for a directory called bin. Inside there is a program named bash. Use that to run update_webui.sh

Hello again, when I try to reset the webui, after I type ‘‘git reset --hard origin/master’’
This appears: ‘‘HEAD is now at 4470b92 corrected -b base_dir not being extracted properly’’
And then after that, when I type: ‘‘rm -rf node_modules’’ and ‘‘npm install --unsafe-perm’’
The mineos site turnes to gibberish

Can you paste the linux info by running this command?
cat /etc/*-release

Here you go

It appears that the kernel is out of date. I ran into this issue as well and had to upgrade. The package repositories were unavailable, so I had to completely rebuild from scratch. This website explains which versions are supported: Debian Wiki: LTS

Before going down that path, try to update the packages first.
Use these commands as either as root or a privileged account (you will need use the sudo before every command):
apt-get update
then use:
apt-get upgrade

If this produces a lot of errors, then the repository has been decommissioned.
What I recommend is that you back up the servers , and also make an image of your server, then try updating to Stretch. My personal experience found it rather difficult, so I scrapped the system and installed Stretch as a fresh install, then copied my servers over.

i tried to update the packages but there where so 404 errors and at the end nothing changed, I wiil now try to install strech.
Also, one question, should I use debian 10?

When I redid the build, Buster was still in beta. The current ISO build for Mineos uses Stretch, and that’s what I went with.

You should be able to install on Buster, but you’ll need to us the node-js install. I agree with @hexparrot that a rebuild is an extreme course to take and there may be other solutions to fix these issues. For me, the quickest way to a resolution was to rebuild.

actually for me a rebuild would be much simpler than coding (cause I suck at it, coding that is) but I do not have the parts for a new system

You wouldn’t need new hardware to upgrade to a newer version. But if this is the only bare metal system you have, I highly recommended that you perform a backup.

However, as @hexparrot mentioned, this could be solved by determining the source of the errors.
