How to Set Up your own Minecraft Server

You can always purchase a hosting service to set up your own Minecraft server from the likes of MCPRO Hosting or many other services like that, but you can just set up your own on a good computer at home for others to connect to if you wish.

You can download the server file from: https://minecraft.net/en-us/download/server

After you download the file, you can run it using this command line:

java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.1.11.2.jar nogui

If you need the user interface, take out the “nogui” part from the command line.

You can get more information about how to set up a Minecraft server at the Minecraft Wiki.
