SIGTERM doesn't make Ubuntu Bedrock Server save and quit gracefully.

I am having this issue also.
If terminated 'ungracefully', ports get tied up and the server cannot restart without freeing those ports or a system reboot.

For now you can use tmux to work around it.

ExecStart=/usr/bin/tmux new -ds mcbe 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./bedrock_server'`

ExecStop=/usr/bin/tmux sendkeys -t mcbe:0.0 stop Enter

You can't have more than 1 instance per tmux socket, but you can use the -S flag for that if you must. Hopefully they change their handling of SIGTERM from apathetically to cleanly.

Hi,

Is this still an issue in 1.14.32.1?

I know enough about linux to be dangerous and help test some of the issues here but this one is a little outside my wheel house.

If someone is able to test and confirm that would be amazing.

I've not heard back from you in a while.

In order to keep the Bedrock Dedicated Server project running smoothly I'm going to request this issue be closed as Awaiting Response.

Never fear though! If this is still affecting you in the latest version (and is related to Bedrock Dedicated Server and not the Minecraft Bedrock game) all you have to do is comment and it will reopen.

If your issue does still exist but is related to the game and not the server software please head over to the Minecraft (Bedrock codebase) project.

This feature is needed on both Ubuntu and Windows. There is currently no safe way for an outside application to call for Save or shutdown when the server is running.

If the report could please be updated with the following information we can get the report confirmed. I have the knowledge to do it for Windows but no idea how this impacts Linux or how to repro.

What I expected to happen was...:

When I killed a squid, it should have dropped an ink sac.

What actually happened was...:

Instead, it dropped an apple.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Find a squid (though we all know how difficult they are to find when you actually want to find one).
2. Kill the squid.
3. Notice that it drops apples instead of ink sacs. How am I supposed to get black dye now?

I can confirm server version 1.16.201.3 on ubuntu and windows do not handle SIGTERM correctly. The server process ends immediately and does not shut down correctly.

What I expected to happen was...:

When I type ctrl+c, I expect the server to shut down as if I had issued the stop command.

What actually happened was...:

Instead, the process exits immediately without properly shutting down. 

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Start the server
2. With the server's terminal window active, press ctrl+c
