Allocs Mapping Not Rendering on Dedicated Server

Tags: allocs, maps, troubleshooting, mods

If the Allocs web map shows grey tiles or never loads, the issue is usually file paths, permissions, or chunk data not being generated.

Checklist

  • Confirm the webserver modlet is present and enabled on the server (Mods/Allocs web map files).
  • Ensure the web files directory is readable by the server user and that map and player folders are being written.
  • Verify the web port is open and not colliding with another service.

Forcing tile generation

  • Start the server and let someone explore; map tiles are created as chunks load.
  • Delete only the web map tiles (not the save) if they are corrupt, then let them regenerate.

Config tips

  • In serverconfig.xml, set the correct save path so Allocs reads the right world folder.
  • If reverse proxying the web map, update paths so /map assets resolve properly.

Logs

  • Check the server log for “Failed to create map tile” or permission errors; they point to the exact missing path.
