Running vanilla server on cloud vm
Can i just move this entire zipped folder into my linux cloud server, unzip it, and run it. My server has java but i dont know if i need any more stuff for paper, or if you need a start.sh or if i can just run it off the paper.jar, i wanna get all the files ready before moving it.

should be able to yes
java -Xms4G -Xmx4G -jar paper-1.19.3.jar
should work as a startup command
(gives the server 4 gb of ram)
dont i have to get a start.sh for that
i dont have one
no
you just run it in the command line
i just run it in cmd?
dam
yup
another question
i forgot how updating servers works
just switch the jar
to a updated one
(i recommend making a backup)
and then update plugins
i use to do this stuff through a provider so it was easier
but its all manual now
i change the paper-1.19.3 jar to paper 1.20.jar and thats it?
+ plugins
yes
yes
like the world files and other stuff will be fine
should be
make a backup before
i dont have to change any destinations or anything in the properties files
as u cant go back
nop
you might have to switch port in server.properties
to 25565
but thats it
should i just copy all the files as a backup
just make a backup or keep a copy of the zip
aight ima just make a copy and try it all
why is it not secure?
its just a thing ignore it
doesnt do anything
i forgot how to edit in cmd so i just closed shell and now im getting this lol
just type D
got it
so i insert
edit the thing i want to edit
hit escape
use nano
not vim
then type ws right?
:wq
AH
thats what it was
why nano
i always used vim
simpler
neater
oo
i uh
kinda like vim more
with nano its just ctrl + x
y
y
well thats up to u then kek
lol
so it started
but i couldnt see it
im guessing because of the port?
i just switched it from 25575 to 25565
do u get any error message when running the command i sent?
i just switched it
still cant connect tho
whats the error on ur screen?
am i maybe getting the ip wrong?
should the ip contain the port
not with 25565
try and actually log in
ive hosted a bunch of modded servers off this vm
but im just now moving my old pebblyhost server to it
Careful saying this 😳
romeo o romeo where arth thou
nvm i gotta dip, ty for help ill probably ask a new question in a few hours
Maybe you entered wrong ip, if you are trying to connect from your own network then you should do what's my ip on that server and type that ip instead, if that is hosting company then you should just get ip which they gave you.
i already fixed it for him
in another thread
oh ok
99% of servers dont have a gui
because its unneccesary overhead
yeah
