Whilst AFKing at a slime farm on a private server, a zombie spawned and killed me. As I was still at the computer desk I saw the death menu appear and quickly quit the game, joined as my daughters account and ran over to get the items (as I was respawned in a bed many blocks away).
There were no items left..yet I saw them on the ground before quitting out It took less than 2 minutes from my characters death to get to where I died, and the only remaining items were what the zombie took after I killed it.
It's especially annoying as I had a mending + infinity bow as the server existed from before that combo was removed from the game.
No item was enchanted with "curse of vanishing"
This has been happening since before 1.11.2 as it's not the first time the private server has despawned items upon death (server has existed since 01/10/2016) but this is the first time it annoyed me enough to post a bug report.
It only seems to be death when a single player is on the server, they quit, and rejoining with a different account that creates this problem...

It doesn't appear to have generated a log since 17w14a.
The log folder in the server folder has nothing created after 08/04/2017, which was the last time I played in 17w14a before upgrading on the 14th (hermitcraft season 5 put us back in the minecraft mood on the 13th)
Maybe thats another bug...17w15a doesn't generate logs. The output window is definitely useless now and displays nothing of interest like player deaths, warnings when the server is under load etc etc.
Could you attach the server log?
