mark2 is continuing to accumulate bugs which will almost certainly not be fixed.

You are advised to move to another wrapper!
mark2 is a minecraft server wrapper, written in python and twisted. It aims to be the definitive wrapper, providing a rich feature-set and a powerful plugin interface. It has no requirement on craftbukkit.
- Your server runs in the background
- Multiple users can attach at once, with their own local prompt and command buffer
- Built in monitoring using cpu, memory, players and connectivity
- Rich screen/tmux-like client with built-in monitoring, tab-complete, command history, etc
- Powerful scheduling plugin, with a cron-like syntax. You can hook onto events like
@serverstoppedto run a cartograph, or runsaveon an interval - Automatically restart the server when it crashes, runs out of memory, or stops accepting connections
- Notifications via Prowl, Pushover, NotifyMyAndroid or email if something goes wrong.
- Relay in-game chat to IRC, and vice-versa
- MCBouncer ban support, even on a vanilla server.
- Read an RSS feed (such as a subreddit feed) and announce new entries in-game
- Back up your map and server log when the server stops
- Print a random message at an interval, e.g. '[SERVER] Lock your chests with /lock'
- Respond to user commands, e.g. ' !teamspeak' could
