         1. Do you just have a question about something? If so, asking in the [Q&A Discussions](https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server/discussions/categories/q-a) or asking on [the Discord server](https://discord.gg/DXfKpjB) would be best.
-        2. Did you re-pull the newest image using `docker pull`? 
-        3. Is this bug happening after the `[init]` prefixed logs and after the log that says "Starting the Minecraft server"? If so, please report the bug with Mojang or the respective server provider.
-        4. Are you seeing a performance problem? If so, that is typically outside the scope of the image setup mechanims. Ask a question as above or contact the respective server provider.
+        2. Did you **re-pull the newest image** and confirmed the issue after that? Run `docker pull <image>` or if using a compose file, it's as easy as running `docker compose pull`. If using Kubernetes, add `imagePullPolicy: Always` to the container.

-> **NOTES**
->
-> This feature doesn't work via rcon, so you will need to `docker attach` to the container. Use the sequence Ctrl-P, Ctrl-Q to detach. 
-> 
-> This will bypass graceful server shutdown handling when using `docker stop`, so be sure the server console's `stop` command.
-> 
-> Make to enable stdin and tty with `-it` when using `docker run` or `stdin_open: true` and `tty: true` when using docker compose.
->
-> This feature is incompatible with Autopause and cannot be set when `ENABLE_AUTOPAUSE=true`.
+If this behavior interferes with the log content, then disable TTY or remove the setting entirely since the default is disabled. In a compose file, set the service's `tty` parameter to `false`. On the `docker run` command-line remove the `-t` argument.
 
 ## Server Shutdown Options
 
 To allow time for players to finish what they're doing during a graceful server shutdown, set `STOP_SERVER_ANNOUNCE_DELAY` to a number of seconds to delay after an announcement is posted by the server.
 
-> **NOTE** be sure to adjust Docker's shutdown timeout accordingly, such as using [the -t option on docker-compose down](https://docs.docker.com/compose/reference/down/).
+!!! warning "Increase stop grace period"
+
+    The Docker stop grace period must be increased to a value longer than the announce delay. The value to use that is longer than announce delay will vary based upon the amount of time it takes for final world data saving. If the container exits with exit code 137, then that indicates a longer grace period is needed. 
+    
+    The grace period can be increased using [the -t option on docker-compose down](https://docs.docker.com/compose/reference/down/) or set the [stop_grace_period](https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/05-services/#stop_grace_period) in the compose file.

 ### Whitelist Players
 
-!!! note 
+!!! warning "For public servers" 
     
-    It is very important to set this with servers exposed to the internet where you want only limited players to join.
+    It is very important to consider setting a whitelist of expected players.
 
 To whitelist players for your Minecraft server, you can:  
 
-- Provide a list of usernames and/or UUIDs separated by commas via the `WHITELIST` environment variable  
-  `docker run -d -e WHITELIST=user1,uuid2 ...`
-- Provide the url or path to a whitelist file via `WHITELIST_FILE` environment variable  
-  `docker run -d -e WHITELIST_FILE=/extra/whitelist.json ...`
+- Provide a list of usernames and/or UUIDs separated by commas or newlines via the `WHITELIST` environment variable
+- Provide the URL or container path to a whitelist file via `WHITELIST_FILE` that will be retrieved/copied into the standard location
 
-When either is set, [whitelisting of connecting users](https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Server.properties#white-list) is enabled . If managing the list manually, `ENABLE_WHITELIST` can be set to "true" to set the `white-list` property.
+!!! example 
 
-If whitelist configuration already exists, `WHITELIST_FILE` will not be retrieved and any usernames in `WHITELIST` are **added** to the whitelist configuration. You can enforce regeneration of the whitelist on each server startup by setting `OVERRIDE_WHITELIST` to "true". This will delete the whitelist file before processing whitelist configuration.
+    In a compose file, a text block can be used to improve maintainability, such as
 
-!!! note
+    ```yaml
+          WHITELIST: |
+            user1
+            user2
+            user3
+    ```
 
-    You can provide both `WHITELIST_FILE` and `WHITELIST`, which are processed in that order.
+When either is set, [whitelisting of connecting users](https://minecraft.wiki/w/Server.properties#white-list) is enabled.
+
+To change the behavior when the whitelist file already exists, set the variable `EXISTING_WHITELIST_FILE` to one of the following options:
+
+`SKIP` (default)
+: Skip processing of the whitelist file when one is already present. This is the same as setting the legacy variable `OVERRIDE_WHITELIST` to "false".
+
+`SYNCHRONIZE`
+: Synchronize the list of users in the file with the `WHITELIST` or `WHITELIST_FILE` provided. When using both, `WHITELIST` will take precedence. This is the same as setting the legacy variable `OVERRIDE_WHITELIST` to "true".
+
+`MERGE`
+: Merge the list of users from `WHITELIST` into the existing file. `WHITELIST_FILE` cannot be used with this option.
+
+`SYNC_FILE_MERGE_LIST`
+: When `WHITELIST_FILE` is provided it will overwrite an existing whitelist file. Also, if `WHITELIST` is provided, then those users will be merged into the newly copied file.
 
 !!! note 
-    
-    UUIDs passed via `WHITELIST` need to be the dashed variant, otherwise it not be recognised and instead added as a username.
-    
-    If running Minecraft 1.7.5 or earlier, these variables will apply to `white-list.txt`, with 1.7.6 implementing support for `whitelist.json`. Make sure your `WHITELIST_FILE` is in the appropriate format.
 
-To [enforce the whitelist changes immediately](https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Server.properties#enforce-whitelist) when whitelist commands are used , set `ENFORCE_WHITELIST` to "true".
+    For versions prior to 1.7.3, `white-list.txt` will be maintained instead. Only usernames are supported for those versions.

+# Auto-download from CurseForge
+
+Mods and plugins can be auto-downloaded and upgraded from CurseForge by setting `CURSEFORGE_FILES` to a comma or space delimited list of [project-file references](#project-file-references). References removed from the declaration are automatically cleaned up and setting `CURSEFORGE_FILES` to an empty string removes all previously managed project-files.
+
+A specific file can be omitted from each reference to allow for auto-selecting the newest version of the selected mod/plugin. The resolved `VERSION` and `TYPE` will be taken into consideration for selecting the appropriate file. 
+
+!!! warning "CurseForge API key usage"
+
+    A CurseForge API key must be allocated and set with `CF_API_KEY` [as described here](../types-and-platforms/mod-platforms/auto-curseforge.md#api-key).
+
+## Project-file references
+
+!!! tip
+
+    Individual project files typically represent a version of the mod/plugin, but CurseForge refers to these items broadly as "files" rather than "versions". 
+
+The following formats are supported in the list of project-file references:
+
+- A project page URL, such as `https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/jei`. _The newest applicable file will be automatically selected._
+- A file page URL, such as `https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/jei/files/4593548`
+- Project slug, such as `jei`. _The newest applicable file will be automatically selected._
+- Project ID, such as `238222`. _The newest applicable file will be automatically selected._
+- Project slug or ID, `:`, and a file ID, such as `jei:4593548` or `238222:4593548`
+- Project slug or ID, `@`, and a partial filename, such as `jei@10.2.1.1005`. This option is useful to refer to a version of the mod/plugin rather than looking up the file ID.
+
+An `@` followed by the container path to a listing file can also be provided as a project-file reference. Each line is processed as a reference where blank lines and comments that start with `#` are ignored.
+
+For example, `CURSEFORGE_FILES` can be set to "@/extras/cf-mods.txt" where the container file `/extras/cf-mods.txt` contains
+
+```text
+# This comment is ignored
+jei:10.2.1.1005
+
+# This and previous blank line are ignore
+geckolib
+aquaculture
+naturalist
+```
+
+!!! tip "Docker Compose"
+
+    Making use of the space delimited option, compose file declarations can be organized nicely with a [multi-line string](https://yaml-multiline.info/), such as
+    
+    ```yaml
+          CURSEFORGE_FILES: |
+            geckolib

-* `MODS_FORGEAPI_RELEASES` - Default is release, Options: [Release|Beta|Alpha]
-* `MODS_FORGEAPI_DOWNLOAD_DEPENDENCIES` - Default is False, attempts to download required mods (releaseType Release) defined in Forge.
-* `MODS_FORGEAPI_IGNORE_GAMETYPE` - Default is False, Allows for filtering mods on family type: FORGE, FABRIC, and BUKKIT. (Does not filter for Vanilla or custom)

-## Extra options
+## Excluding Overrides Files
+
+Modpack zip files typically include an `overrides` subdirectory that may contain config files, world data, and extra mod files. All of those files will be extracted into the `/data` path of the container. If any of those files, such as incompatible mods, need to be excluded from extraction, then the `CF_OVERRIDES_EXCLUSIONS` variable can be set with a comma or newline delimited list of ant-style paths ([see below](#ant-style-paths)) to exclude, relative to the overrides (or `/data`) directory. 
+
+### Ant-style paths
+
+Ant-style paths can include the following globbing/wildcard symbols:
+
+| Symbol | Behavior                                                |
+|--------|---------------------------------------------------------|
+| `*`    | Matches zero, one, or many characters except a slash    |
+| `**`   | Matches zero, one, or many characters including slashes |
+| `?`    | Matches one character                                   |
+
+!!! example
+    
+    The following compose `environment` entries show how to exclude Iris and Sodium mods from the overrides
+    
+    ```yaml
+      CF_OVERRIDES_EXCLUSIONS: mods/iris*.jar,mods/sodium*.jar
+    ```
+    
+    or using newline delimiter, which improves maintainability
+    
+    ```yaml
+      CF_OVERRIDES_EXCLUSIONS: |
+        mods/iris*.jar
+        mods/sodium*.jar
+    ```
+
+## World/Level Data
 
 Some modpacks come with world/save data via a worlds file and/or the overrides provided with the modpack. Either approach can be selected to set the `LEVEL` to the resulting saves directory by setting `CF_SET_LEVEL_FROM` to either:
+
 - `WORLD_FILE`
 - `OVERRIDES`
 
+## Ignore missing files
+
+Some mods use temporary files from the modpack and delete them when finished. Others will patch themselves and "disable" the original mod jar, such as gregtech. In order to avoid the installer from detecting the absent file(s) and re-installing, those files can be ignored by passing a comma or newline delimited list to `CF_IGNORE_MISSING_FILES`.
+
+!!! hint
+
+    A warning log will indicate what files were found to be missing from the previous installation run, such as
+
+    ```
+    Re-installing due to missing files from modpack: [mods/gregtech-2.6.2-beta.jar]
+    ```

+
 - `CF_PARALLEL_DOWNLOADS` (default is 4): specify how many parallel mod downloads to perform
 - `CF_OVERRIDES_SKIP_EXISTING` (default is false): if set, files in the overrides that already exist in the data directory are skipped. **NOTE** world data is always skipped, if present.
+- `CF_FORCE_REINSTALL_MODLOADER` (default is false): this can be set to `true` to force the modpack's declared modloader, such as Forge, to be reinstalled. This is useful if some of the modloader's files become corrupted.

 The automatic modpack version resolving can be narrowed in a few ways:
 
 The latest release or beta version, respectively, of the Modrinth modpack is selected when `VERSION` is "LATEST" or "SNAPSHOT". That can be overridden by setting `MODRINTH_DEFAULT_VERSION_TYPE` to "release", "beta", or "alpha".

+
+## Ignore missing files
+
+Some mods, such as [MCInstance Loader](https://modrinth.com/mod/mcinstance-loader), use temporary files from the modpack and delete them when finished. In order to avoid the installer from detecting the absent file(s) and re-installing, those files can be ignored by passing a comma or newline delimited list to `MODRINTH_IGNORE_MISSING_FILES`.
+
+!!! example
+
+    In a Compose file
+    ```yaml
+      environment:
+        MODRINTH_IGNORE_MISSING_FILES: |
+          config/mcinstanceloader/pack.mcinstance
+    ```
+
+## Excluding files
+
+To exclude client mods that are incorrectly declared by the modpack as server-compatible, set `MODRINTH_EXCLUDE_FILES` to a comma or newline delimited list of partial file names to exclude. You may need to set `MODRINTH_FORCE_SYNCHRONIZE` to "true" while iterating on a compatible set of mods to use.
+
+!!! example
+
+    In a Compose file:
+    ```yaml
+      MODRINTH_EXCLUDE_FILES: |

+## Force-include files

+To force include client mods, set `MODRINTH_FORCE_INCLUDE_FILES` to a comma or newline delimited list of partial file names. You may need to set `MODRINTH_FORCE_SYNCHRONIZE` to "true" while iterating on a compatible set of mods to use.
+
+!!! example
+
+    In a Compose file:
+    ```yaml
+      MODRINTH_FORCE_INCLUDE_FILES: |
+        yet-another-config-lib
+    ```
+
+## Excluding Overrides Files
+
+Modrinth mrpack/zip files may include an `overrides` subdirectory that contains config files, world data, and extra mod files. All of those files will be extracted into the `/data` path of the container. If any of those files, such as incompatible mods, need to be excluded from extraction, then the `MODRINTH_OVERRIDES_EXCLUSIONS` variable can be set with a comma or newline delimited list of ant-style paths ([see below](#ant-style-paths)) to exclude, relative to the overrides (or `/data`) directory.
+
+### Ant-style paths
+
+Ant-style paths can include the following globbing/wildcard symbols:
+
+| Symbol | Behavior                                                |
+|--------|---------------------------------------------------------|
+| `*`    | Matches zero, one, or many characters except a slash    |
+| `**`   | Matches zero, one, or many characters including slashes |
+| `?`    | Matches one character                                   |
+
+!!! example
+
+    The following compose `environment` entries show how to exclude Iris and Sodium mods from the overrides
+    
+    ```yaml
+      MODRINTH_OVERRIDES_EXCLUSIONS: mods/NekosEnchantedBooks-*.jar,mods/citresewn-*.jar
+    ```

-For example, to use Java version 8 on any supported architecture:
+1. Why no arm64 for Java 17 Alpine? That is because the base images, such as [elipse-temurin](https://hub.docker.com/_/eclipse-temurin/tags?page=&page_size=&ordering=&name=17-jre-alpine) do not provide support for that. Use the Ubuntu based images instead.
 
-    docker run --name mc itzg/minecraft-server:java8-multiarch
+!!! example "Example using java8"
 
-!!! note
-
-    Keep in mind that some versions of Minecraft server, such as Forge before 1.17, can't work on the newest versions of Java. Instead, one of the Java 8 images should be used. Also, FORGE doesn't support openj9 JVM implementation.
+    With docker run command-line
     
-    Some versions of vanilla Minecraft, such as 1.10, also do not run correctly with Java 17. If in doubt, use `java8-multiarch` for any version less than 1.17.
+    ```
+    docker run -it -e EULA=true itzg/minecraft-server:java8
+    ```
+    
+    or in a compose file
+    
+    ```yaml
+    services:
+      mc:
+        image: itzg/minecraft-server:java8
+    ```
 
-### Deprecated Image Tags
+!!! note "Latest"
+
+    The "latest" tag shifts to include not only the latest features and bug fixes, but also the latest Java version that Mojang requires for the latest Minecraft version.
+
+!!! tip "Class File Version"
+
+    If the Minecraft startup is logging an error about a "class file version", then refer [to this table](https://javaalmanac.io/bytecode/versions/) to identify the JDK/Java version corresponding to each class file version.
+
+### Release versions
+
+Since the tags referenced above will shift as the newest image build brings in new features and bug fixes, released variants of those can also be used to pin a specific build of the image.
+
+The syntax of released image tags is:
+
+    itzg/minecraft-server:<release>-<java tag>
+
+where `java tag` still refers to the first column of the table above and `release` refers to [one of the image releases](https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server/releases).
+
+!!! example
+
+    For example, the 2024.4.0 release of the Java 17 image would be
+    
+    ```
+    itzg/minecraft-server:2024.4.0-java17
+    ```
+
+### Stable image tag
+
+The `stable` image tag combines the benefits of `latest` and [release versions](#release-versions) since it shifts to refer to the most recently released version.
+
+## Version compatibilities
+
+[This section in the Minecraft wiki](https://minecraft.wiki/w/Tutorials/Update_Java#Why_update?) lists out versions of **vanilla** Minecraft versions and the corresponding Java version that is required.
+
+### Forge versions
+
+Forge and its mods sometimes utilize non-public APIs of the JVM and as such are suspceptible to becoming broken with newer Java versions.
+
+#### Java 21
+
+Some mods even up to Minecraft 1.21 require Java 17 and will not run on the latest Java version. If you see an error like the following then be sure to explicitly use a Java 17 tagged image:
+
+```
+Caused by: org.spongepowered.asm.mixin.throwables.ClassMetadataNotFoundException: java.util.List
+	at MC-BOOTSTRAP/org.spongepowered.mixin/org.spongepowered.asm.mixin.transformer.MixinPreProcessorStandard.transformMethod(MixinPreProcessorStandard.java:754)
+```
+
+#### Java 8
+
+For Forge versions less than 1.18, you _must_ use the `java8-multiarch` (or other java8) image tag.
+
+In general, if you see the following line in a server startup failure, then it means you need to be using Java 8 instead of the latest image Java version:
+
+```
+Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: class jdk.internal.loader.ClassLoaders$AppClassLoader 
+   cannot be cast to class java.net.URLClassLoader
+```
+
+Forge also doesn't support openj9 JVM implementation.
