How To Set Up A McMyAdmin Minecraft Server On A VPS

Minecraft is awesome. It is a fact that everyone knows. Some of us may have hosted servers for our friends using our home computers. This is great, but you eventually get tired and want to be able to access the Internet faster. A virtual private server (VPS) can be rented to fix this problem. Virtual Private Servers cost a monthly fee, and you can use them 24/7. You will often find good deals if your search is broad enough. Check out LowEndBox.com - I just found a 2GB VPS, which is perfect for a small Minecraft server, for just about $2.50 a month!



So now that you have a VPS you could off course go right ahead and install java and run the Minecraft server java file. This is great but not many of us are large fans of the Linux terminal. A work around for avoiding the Linux terminal would be to use a powerful Minecraft server control panel. Today we will be installing McMyAdmin onto a Linux VPS with 2GB of RAM. This will allow us manage our server and perform tasks such as reboots and back-ups with just a few clicks using a web browser. Let's get started!



For this article we will assume that you already have a VPS running a Linux 64 bit operating system and you know how to SSH into your server. Google is your friend, if you don’t know how to do any one of these things, Google will!



First, we will install the latest Java for Linux. Open the Java website from your computer. Right-click the Linux x64 RPM download link. Select "copy link." SSH into your server and type the following commands, replace LINK with the link you copied. Each line should then be entered in your SSH client independently.



mkdir /usr/java cd /usr/java wget LINK



The file we downloaded may now look strange because of the Java website and wget tool. The mv tool will allow us to rename the file. Replace FILE NAME by the exact name of your downloaded file. To find the file name, you can use ls on a terminal. Rename the file until it contains the first few lines of the filename up to the question mark. Use the following example to help you.



mv jre-7u7-linux-x64.rpm?ssdflsdjkfhkjhnfsdkfhlsdkhflsk jre-7u7-linux-x64.rpm



Now you'll install Java RPM. This syntax will install Java RPM. Replace the filename with your own.



rpm = ivh



rpm -ivh jre-7u7-linux-x64.rpm



Java should now be installed onto your Linux VPS. You can refer to the Java RPM installation instructions if you have any problems with Java installation.



We will now install McMyAdmin!



First, create McMyAdmin's directory.



mkdir/minecraft cd/minecraft



Now you can download and install McMyAdmin. Remember to enter your password for McMyAdmin's web panel in the last line.



wget http://mcmyadmin.com/Downloads/MCMA2_glibc25.zip unzip MCMA2_glibc25.zip cd /usr/local wget http://mcmyadmin.com/Downloads/etc.zip unzip etc.zip cd /minecraft . Minecraft server list /MCMA2_Linux_x86_64 -setpass ENTER-YOUR-NEW-PASSWORD-HERE



Now your server should start. Head over to a web browser and type the following address: http://Your-Server-IP:8080



Log in with the username admin and the password you set earlier.



This is where you can configure your server. Once you've selected all the necessary settings, it's time to start the server. You should now have a working McMyAdmin Minecraft server running on your VPS!



Bonus



The server will shut down at the moment if you close the SSH client window. To fix this simply install screen if you do not already have it. Then run



screen ./MCMA2_Linux_x86_64



To run your server. Then you can close the SSH window and the server will continue running!
