If you ever need to manage versions of Minecraft, or if you want to upgrade your Minecraft server, it may be helpful to rename the downloaded server.jar to minecraft_server_ 1.18.1.jar, matching the highlighted version numbers to whatever version you just downloaded: The server app will be downloaded as server.jar.

You can now use wget and the copied link to download the server app to your server: X.X.X.jar, where the X’s are the latest version of the server. You can do this by navigating to Minecraft’s Website and copying the link that says Download minecraft_server. Now you need to download the current version of the Minecraft server. Step 2 - Downloading the Latest Version of Minecraft Now that you have Java installed and your firewall properly configured, you will download the Minecraft server app from the Minecraft website. Add the necessary firewall rule by running the following command: In some cases ufw will use named traffic rules, such as for ssh, which always uses port 22 by default, but in less common cases like this one, we’ll specify the port number manually. Now you need to allow for traffic to come in via port 25565, which is the default port that Minecraft uses to allow connections. In the initial server setup that you performed you only allowed ssh traffic. Now that you have the packages installed we need to enable the firewall to allow traffic to come in to our Minecraft server. This is important because if you were to start your server and then close your terminal, this would kill the session and stop your server. screen allows you to create a terminal session and detach from it, leaving the process started on it running.
