minecraft-server imageTag rpi3 ran into issues with rcon-cli

[orsenthil]

helm install stable/minecraft --version 1.1.6 --set=imageTag=rpi3 --set minecraftServer.eula=true --generate-name

I saw the following problem in the logs.

I tried 1.15.2 yesterday on my RaspberryPi 3 and it failed miserably. I had to power-cycle the entire RaspberryPi to even ssh back to it. The logs you reported don't indicate an rcon-cli problem; instead the problem is that the minecraft server itself is not ready or responsive enough to even respond to rcon connections/operations.

I thought I would try an older version, 1.12.2, and even that maxes out one of the cores without making any visible progress:

Finally, I tried 1.7.10 and it starts up slowly but is actually making progress through the "Preparing spawn area" steps.
