Recommendations for use of Multicraft on Amahi.

Agreeing to the EULA

In some cases, new servers now require users to agree to the EULA in order to run a server. Mojang now requires that you accept the conditions of the EULA by agreeing to the terms in a file that is placed on your server labeled eula.txt. This is a simple text file and all that is required is to navigate to the file in your control panel and change the

 eula=false

to

 eula=true

You will need to set up a share (see below) to be able to access the file (or ssh into the HDA server).

Once this is completed you will need to save the file then stop and start your server. You will only need to change this once and can continue to use your server as normal.

Do not use FTP, set up a Share

Some people like to access the server files and change them.

FTP is not a secure protocol and it's rather cumbersome to work out. For using Multicraft on Amahi, it's best to create a share pointing to the area of the app, so you and any other users in your network can add, delete or modify files in the server area (needless to say, do this carefully, as it may break the server).

To add a share, go to your HDA's Dashboard then Setup > Shares. Create a share with the name you like (e.g. Multicraft). The default settings are OK (visible and not read-only).

Once created, modify the location of the share by clicking on it and changing the location from the default to

 /var/hda/web-apps/multicraft/app

Then you can use a share with any client you want (mac, windows, linux, ..) to mess with files in Multicraft.

Using Alternate Minecraft Servers

By default, this app comes with the standard Minecraft server, version 1.8. To upgrade this or use other server, like the optimized server or the Craftbukkit server, login as admin, then go to Settings, then click on Update Minecraft.

There are multiple steps: selecting the server kind you want to get, first download the .conf file, then install it. Then select the JAR file, followed by download and install.
