Question Unable to create new world

[GreenbanditMZrider]

When I try to create a world on a Raspberry Pi4B server using Paper 1.20.1 build 100, when I join the world from a PC, I'm standing on something, the sky is visible above and below but there are no visible blocks. No server error messages are given.

This happens when I tried on two different Raspberry Pi units, and the same happened when I used Paper 1.20.1 build 69.

Help. Is this a bug? Or am I doing something wrong?

A workaround is to create a new world using the vanilla 1.20.1 server, then replace the vanilla .jar file with the paper one. Once the world has been created, the Paper server works as expected.

It sounds to me like world generation is very slow. I can't provide much more details, try generating a spark report and checking the logs to see what the cause is. Do note that a Raspberry Pi is generally not performant enough to run a Minecraft server, so that might be the cause of the slow world generation.
