This is less-than-helpful...  I tried:

~$ sudo apt-get install libcurl4
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libcurl4

After googling for a bit, I updated my sources.list per this article:  https://www.tecmint.com/fix-unable-to-locate-package-error-in-debian-9/

Same result... Still can't locate the package.

I shouldn't have to be a Linux guru to make this work.  Please make your instructions more complete.

In what source do I find this libcurl4 library?

Thanks.

Well, it may be that you're not running it on the right flavor of Linux. I tried on CentOS, and it didn't work there. Had to run it on Ubuntu, and there it worked without issue.

The problem is that the instructions do not say what flavor of linux to run the server on.  Thanks for sharing that it runs on Ubuntu @Tanner!

I can comment that it fails to run on Alpine linux due to muslc as it's not completely glibc compatible.

I have been running the server in a docker container for these reasons.

Running on Ububtu 18.04 I ran the following command: `sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev` which solved the problem for me.

Does Mojang happen to be doing anything to fix this for Centos 7? Anyone know of any functional work arounds? On the latest version, I have been able to get it to start, but it won't bind the IP / Port. One version older, and it fully works. Seems that it works out of the box on Centos 8 beta, and Arch Linux /shrug

@Innectic You can use Docker to run the server in a container on any flavor of Linux. I made a quick blog post explaining how here:

I had this issue today on a vanilla install  of 18.04.4 LTS.  It appears there is a dependency which is not documented
