So I just started with Linux on ubuntu and experimentation so here is one of my attempts. Please note that the laptop I am using for this is second-hand and not able to run the server, the ram is a bit fried to do more than display the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS desktop
- sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
- sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless screen
- sudo adduser minecraft
- —> login as minecraft <—
- wget https://launcher.mojang.com/v1/objects/3737db93722a9e39eeada7c27e7aca28b144ffa7/server.jar -O minecraft_server.1.13.jar
- —> Create /home/minecraft/run.sh <—
- #1/bin/sh
- java -Xms1024M -Xmx1536M -jar minecraft_server.1.13.jar -o true
- —> make script executable <—
- chmod +x /home/minecraft/run.sh
- run program once then open /home/minecraft/eula.txt
- change eula=false to eula=true
- save file and exit
- Thats it, you can now connect to the server
