We told you that this resource will be suitable for any aspiring server owner, no matter how experienced. You'll see from this page alone that we're honouring that commitment! We'll take you step by step through the installation process.
Turn off your server
Make sure your server is OFFLINE before starting Step 1!
Set your server version to 1.21.1 in your panel. You should be looking for something along the lines of "Server Type" or "Jars & Preinstalls" on your panel, either on the main page or on the sidebar. In the image below, we'll be using PebbleHost as an example.
Set your "World" name to "resource" (IN LOWERCASE). Make sure to click "Save" afterwards. Again, we'll be using PebbleHost as an example, but you should be looking for "World" on your main page, or look for a "Settings" page which lets you set the world name.
Upload the server_files.zip file into your main directory.
Since you'll be uploading the files from our setup, you need to delete certain directories and files:
plugins folder
world folder
world_nether folder
world_the_end folder
server.properties file
server.jar OR your .jar file. It will reinstall by itself.
spigot.yml file
bukkit.yml file
commands.yml file
server-icon.png file
Don't worry if you can't find all of these files! You might be missing some, that's perfectly normal!
You'll want to use the FTP client from your hosting provider to extract a .zip file. Select the file, then click "Extract", "Unzip" or "Unarchive". The wording will differ slightly based on what provider you're using for your hosting.
There are a few plugins that cannot include in our setup as they are Premium plugins, however some developers allow you to download these for free. Download below:
MOST are free, BUT... consider supporting these brilliant developers! These developers have produced some fantastic plugins, and while most of the developers allow you to download them for free if you wish, please consider supporting their work by purchasing them! We have provided links to both the respective paid and free (if applicable) plugins.
Citizens [Ver 2.0.35-b3568.jar] (Purchase here) OR (Free download)
SimplePets [Ver 1.21.1] (Purchase here) OR (Free download)
TAB [Ver 4.1.8] (Free download) (No paid version)
PlayerWarps (Optional) [Ver 7.6.1] (Purchase here) (No free version)
From 1.20.6 onwards, PlayerWarps has become a Premium plugin. If you wish to use PlayerWarps on your server, you can purchase the plugin from above. If not, you can ignore this and delete the "PlayerWarps" folder found in the /plugins directory.
Put all of the above plugins in your /plugins directory.
Once everything has been extracted, you're good to go! Start up your server and enjoy the setup!
Your server may take longer to boot than normal on the first load, as it generates core server files. Just be patient and allow it time to do its thing!
You may see some messages from plugins when you join or load up the server telling you updates are available. These messages are only visible to server operators. Please see our FAQ for more information regarding plugin updates.
To unlock access to all commands, type op <your username> in console. You can also type lp user <your username> group set owner to grant yourself the Owner rank.
You've probably noticed leaderboards aren't working - this is because we have wiped all player data. To fix them, simply type the following commands (you should be able to tab complete them too):
/ajlb add auraskills_power
/ajlb add griefprevention_bonusclaims
/ajlb add statistic_mob_kills
/ajlb add statistic_time_played
/ajlb add vault_eco_balance
/ajlb add voterewards_player_votes
