Navigate to your Downloads folder and move the Minecraft folder to your desired location. We're going to drag it to the desktop, but we would recommend a dedicated folder for Minecraft.
Double click on the Minecraft JAR file. This will extract some files we need before we can start the server. We'll start by adjusting the configuration files before starting the server. Save the file. To adjust server settings, open the server properties file and save the file once the necessary changes have been made.
If you're wondering how to adjust server settings, the server properties file determines key server settings like server port, memory, and in game settings. Port is the default server port. The Minecraft Server is now installed and running and a stats window will appear.
As we can see in the window, this particular local PC can't keep up with the resources required to run a multiplayer server, so we'll be setting this up on a cloud server with ServerMania for a better experience. Now that your server is installed, you can connect to it from Minecraft. Launch Minecraft and select Multiplayer. Enter server details and click Done. You may need to open up access to port on your router if your friends are unable to connect.
Keep in mind that your home IP address may change frequently, so you will need to provide them with the updated connections details when this happens. One of the main advantages of using a cloud server is you always keep the same IP. When you completing the install of a Minecraft multiplayer server on your local PC instead of hosting it wth a cloud server provider, you need to open up access to your local PC to the internet through port forwarding.
If you don't setup port forwarding, your friends won't be able to connect. The instructions for setting up Minecraft Server port forwarding will vary based on the type of router you use. So we'd recommend performing a google search on how to setup port forwarding based on the internet router or ISP you are using. This will complete your server install process. You're ready to go! You've now learned how to create your own server.

It can be either the Ubuntu Desktop or Server. How should I proceed to installing the server? I recommend creating a folder for it. This is because, when you execute the server it will create several files and folders. I recommend using the nogui parameter to avoid an additional window in the GUI. The latter will automatically save any progress.
