New to VPS, trying to setup a minecraft server

Post by kalelreturns »

Forgive me I'm a noob. I'm new to VPS so I found this guide to install minecraft: http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads ... uide.1290/

I followed the instructions step by step, didn't get any errors. I ran the server start script but I still cannot connect to the server.

Any one have any suggestions?

Open up your server's properties file and change the server IP to the IP that you got on the control panel.

Your server.properties file should look like this once finished:

Code: Select all

#Minecraft server properties
#Sun Sep 29 03:54:47 PDT 2013
generator-settings=
allow-nether=true
level-name=world
enable-query=false
allow-flight=false
server-port=25565
level-type=DEFAULT
enable-rcon=false
force-gamemode=false
level-seed=
server-ip=192.223.25.xxx
max-build-height=256
spawn-npcs=true
white-list=false
spawn-animals=true
snooper-enabled=true
hardcore=false
texture-pack=
online-mode=true
pvp=true
difficulty=1
player-idle-timeout=0
gamemode=0
max-players=10
spawn-monsters=true
view-distance=10
generate-structures=true
spawn-protection=16
motd=A Minecraft Server
(I blanked out the last bit of the IP due to the server just being for testing stuff on)

Also, were there any [SEVERE] errors listed in your server.log file?
