Minecraft

Before You Join​

Once your server has installed and you have checked the Startup tab, you can start it by clicking the start button. Your server may take a few minutes to pull the docker image and start up.

Unsupported Java Version

If your server says Unsupported Java Version, click the dropdown and choose Java 17.

Your server will also ask you to accept the EULA. You can do this by clicking the I Accept button.
Your server may say Preparing spawn area: 0% for a while. This is normal, and just wait for it to finish.
Once your server is says Server marked as running ..., you can copy the Address and paste it in to Minecraft.

Want to use your own domain?

You will need to create 2 DNS records for your domain.

  1. Create an CNAME record with the following settings:
  • Name/Host field set to or server (or anything you want that is not the domain on how you want to access the server)
  • Value/Target field set to your server's Address found in the Console tab (without the port)
  1. Create an SRV record with the following settings:
    • Name/Host field set to _minecraft._tcp
    • Priority field set to 0
    • Weight field set to 5
    • Port field set to your server's Primary port found in the Network tab
    • Target field set to your domain including Name/Host field from the CNAME record

After you have created these records, you may need to wait up to 24 hours for the changes to take effect.

After You Join​

After you join your server for the first time, you will need to give yourself admin permissions. You can do this by typing

/op <your minecraft username>

in the panel's console. Making sure to replace <your minecraft username> with your actual Minecraft username.

You can change server settings by going to the Files tab and editing the server.properties file.

tip

You can use an SFTP client like FileZilla or WinSCP to edit your server's files.

info

You can find your server's SFTP credentials in the Settings tab.
Your SFTP password is the same as your panel password.
