By default, the latest vanilla server version is installed.\nFirst you need the JAR file of the server you want to use. You can find the different Vanilla\/Spigot\/Bukkit &amp; Forge servers at the following links:\nVanilla Minecraft-Server data downloadBukkit\/Spigot-Server data downloadForge-Server data downloadFTB -Server data download (Linux!)\nWhen you have found the right file, you can proceed.\nMake sure that your game server is stopped.Log into your game server via FTP.Go to the \/serverfiles folder.Delete all worlds here, if any, to make your server work. Old worlds may not be compatible with your new Minecraft version. You can also keep the server.properties.Upload the jar file via FTP. Wait until the process is completely finished (image 1)Go to the &#8222;Settings&#8220; tab in the Game Server Manager.In the &#8222;The Minecraft Server Filename&#8220; field, specify the name of the jar file you uploaded. Attention: Do not specify the extension &#8222;.jar&#8220;. (Image 2)\nImage 1: spigot-1.15.2 from getbukkit.org\nFigure 2: spigot-1.15.2 as startup file\nNow you can start your server. The startup process may take a while.\nInstall Modpack\nTo use a modpack with the Gameserver Manager, please proceed as follows:\nUpload the complete modpack and specify the correct .JAR file in the configuration. For most modpack servers, this is a file named &#8222;forge&#8222;. If no .JAR file can be found, the modpack is not compatible with GS Manager.Possibly the server must be started once via a start.bat on the own computer at home. Then upload the entire content completely via FTP.Most modpacks require Java version 1.8. Change it according to our instructions.\nIf the server does not start, please create a problem-report.","schema":null,"facts":[],"links":[{"type":"external","url":"https:\/\/mcversions.net","data":{"title":"MCVersions.net - Minecraft Versions Download List","meta_description":"MCVersions.net offers an archive of Minecraft Client and Server jars to download, for both current and old releases!","meta":[]}},{"type":"external","url":"https:\/\/getbukkit.org","data":{"title":"GetBukkit > Home","meta_description":"","meta":[]}},{"type":"external","url":"http:\/\/files.minecraftforge.net\/","data":{"title":"Downloads for Minecraft Forge for Minecraft 26.1.2","meta_description":"","meta":[]}},{"type":"external","url":"https:\/\/www.feed-the-beast.com\/","data":{"title":"Feed The Beast","meta_description":"FTB is a UK based company and community platform that creates innovative mods, maps, and mod packs for Minecraft on the Java and Bedrock editions.","meta":[]}},{"type":"external","url":"https:\/\/support.prepaid-hoster.de\/faq\/de\/gameserver\/gameserver-ftp-daten.html","data":{"title":"Wo finde ich FTP-Daten f\u00c3\u00bcr meinen Gameserver? | Prepaid-Hoster FAQ","meta_description":"Erfahre, wie du im Game Server-Manager auf den gew\u00c3\u00bcnschten Game-Server zugreifen kannst und alle FTP-Zugangsdaten findest.","meta":[]}},{"type":"external","url":"https:\/\/support.prepaid-hoster.de\/faq\/de\/gameserver\/java-version-aendern.html","data":{"title":"Java-Version \u00c3\u00a4ndern | Prepaid-Hoster FAQ","meta_description":"\u00c3\u0084ndere die Java-Version Deines Minecraft-Servers mit diesen Schritten.
