🔥Minecraft Server on Repl.it!🔥
How to run a minecraft server on repl.it
Hey guys today I'm going to show you how to run a minecraft server on repl.it.
Installation is super simple!
- Fork this repl.
- Run the repl and follow the instructions.
If you get any errors make sure that you typed everything right or try starting from scratch. Otherwise, comment and I may be able to help you.
Once you see Done!
in the console, connect to the ip shown in ip.txt
. If you don't want the IP to change you can purchase ngrok premium or use a dedicated minecraft host such as PebbleHost
If you have questions ask in the comments!
How to change minecraft version
- If you already have a server, delete the files
mc/server.jar
andmc.sh
- Run the command above that starts with
wget
again - In
mc.sh
, find the line that saysVERSION=1.16.3
and edit it to your desired version
If you get "signal: killed" or "OutOfMemoryError"
You have two options:
- Buy hacker plan
- Change the line at the bottom of
mc.sh
that starts withjava
to bejava -Xmx1G -Xms1G -jar server.jar nogui" to "java -Xmx200M -Xms200M -jar server.jar nogui
(thanks @gomgo)

Huge shoutout to @letsrepl for the initial concept.
Remember to upvote if you enjoyed!
Consider putting php -S 0.0.0.0:3000 ip.txt & bash mc.sh
in main.sh
, instead of just bash mc.sh
. This automatically sets up a website for it, making it easier to use with uptime robot.
Once this is setup, go to uptime robot and create a keyword monitor that checks every 5 minutes for the keywords "Server running on". That way the server will stay up all the time.
Don't forget to put the ngrok_token
and ngrok_region
values in your .env
!
@gg2001 What IP should I use? How do I forward this ever-changing IP to a domain?
@Forgiving22 buy ngrok premium if you want to have an IP that doesn't change https://ngrok.com/pricing
@Scoder12 are there any free alternatives to ngrok that have a static IP?
@astrochampcambr you tell me
@Scoder12 Could you use a Microsoft azure VM? (Not saying they're free, but they have a constant IP)
@mesquite2234 yes, you could do this on any VPS. Here is a tutorial. The one thing I would do differently from that tutorial is using a high-performance jar from https://papermc.io instead of the vanilla jar.
@Scoder12 Thanks, how do I connect it to repl?
Edit: sorry for the unclear question, I meant to say how would I replace the ngrok thing with a VM
@mesquite2234 I don't know, it would probably require reverse proxies and stuff and would get pretty complicated
@Scoder12 I have the code to start it, its the connecting from minecraft thing I needed help with.
@mesquite2234 start what
@Scoder12 I figured out the commands to start and run the server, but I can't connect to a server when I run it on replit, How do I connect?
@mesquite2234 using the ip in ip.txt
@Scoder12 I dont see one,where is it?
@mesquite2234 in the file ip.txt in the mc folder once you run the server
@Scoder12 I have my own code for running the server, how do I find the IP? (Again, sorry for the unclear questions)
@mesquite2234 well if its not my code then you can google an ip finder service for the commandline, get your server's IP, and if your azure VM doesn't have any firewalls interfering with it you should be able to connect
@Scoder12 I invited you to my repl, I need help connecting to this
@Scoder12 Are you on?
how to use this?
excited villager noises
how to make it bungeecord i just need to know how to make a bungeecord proxy on replit i know how to connect the servers
Just set up this server then realized that this is a java server after waiting 5 minutes wondering why it wasnt connecting.
Can you do this without Hacker? I'm a random kid wanting to play Minecraft and I've already used my savings for that.
@PokeGirl1024 You can use the Student Developer Pack to get hacker for free
Does it work for bedrock too?
@DarshanRajpara1 If you could find low-level access to the Linux host of the Repl servers, yes. I'm still not sure if you can. With third-party hosts like PocketMine that runs on PHP, I bet you could.
@DarshanRajpara1 Someone was asking for help with a bedrock server using pocketmine, but they were having trouble connecting. I think thats its definitely possible in theory but hasn't been pulled off yet
unzip not found?
@DejawnPooler1 fixed
@CipherHYt download the file and unzip it manually on your PC
@CipherHYt fixed
@JuicyGoat same here
how to install spigot?
mine won't run...
mc.sh: line 114: 376 Killed
what does this mean?
@OverdriveAR It means you don't have hacker. Adjust the memory settings according to the comment about it or buy hacker.
@Scoder12 How do you do this I couldn't find any .env file
@JasperLianLian click main.sh
then press the add file button and type .env
and then press enter
@Scoder12 like this?
it says "chmod: cannot access 'jre/bin/java': No such file or directory" please help me dude
@CroxyTheDev sorry, should be fixed now if you try again
When is the minecraft Bedrock server coming out? I can help you test it if required
@yadunandanrocks i also want a minecraft bedrock server on repl
@yadunandanrocks not sure, I don't know how to set it up tbh
@yadunandanrocks there is a java plugin called geyser that lets them connect to each other i use it sadly its only 1.17 but thanks to viaversion and its other versions you can now connnect 1.7-1.17.11 Java (this includes Minecraft VR) and the current Bedrock edition to each other on 1 server with no lag issues the only issue may be PvP related but that is only an issue for big servers.
i just create the server and got this Can't keep up! Is the server overloaded? :/
@DiveshTheReal yeah but it still works
Hey, any way to keep the server alive? The server closes very quickly even with hacker plan, I even lost ~5min of progress (autosave).
I wasn't able to listen to port 8080 & host the mc server at the same time as the http server would close as soon as the mc server started.
Any suggestions or plans?
Unrelated: Inside of your server.properties, I'd recommend setting sync-chunk-writes=false
to improve performance & enable-rcon=false
as rcon is not being used.
@APCSPShehadaK its very tricky to have multiple ports listening on repl.it and have the correct one be forwarded but you might be able to get it to work.
@12944qwerty I got the right link, but now this
trash
ngrok: command not installed, but was located via Nix. How Can I fix it?
Doesn't work ;(
Looks useful. I was just looking for a new server. I am not sure if I will be able to run it myself, but I will ask my friend, a programmer, to do that. If it works out, we will play there. If not, we will continue to play on minecraft servers https://servers-minecraft.net where we used to play before that. They are cool, but sometimes you want to try something new. However, if this new idea does not work or becomes too troublesome, we will return to the good old places that we already know well and love. Also, if we cannot play on this server without our programmer friend, this all be senseless because he’s often absent.
How do I fix error code 8?
this thing is dumb
hello how do i make it crossplay so i can play with my frkend on bedrock edition
