About this video: How can you make a Minecraft server on MacOS? Well, in this video, we show you exactly how to host a Minecraft server on your Mac. From where to download Minecraft server files for MacOS to how to host your server on MacOS, we cover it all. So, without anymore delay, here is how to create a Minecraft server on Mac
First things first, you will need Java 17 in order to start a Minecraft server. You can find our complete guide on getting Java 17 for a MacOS Minecraft server in the description above. It covers every step of getting Java 17 for Minecraft on Mac!
After you have Java 17, we can download the Minecraft server files for Mac. There is a link in the description above that will show you how to host a Minecraft server on MacOS. Once you are there, you will scroll down and click the ‘Download Minecraft’ button to be taken to the server files download page. On this page click the Minecraft_server.jar link to download the Mac server files. You may need to keep, save, or allow the download depending on your browser.
With the Mac Minecraft server files downloaded, we can talk about how to start your Minecraft Mac server. First, you will need to create a folder on your desktop called ‘server’. Then, move the file you downloaded into it. Then, open up Terminal using finder. In terminal, type the follow, cd Desktop, cd server, java -jar server.jar. When you do these commands, your server will try to start. You may need to confirm you want Terminal accessing your desktop though. This is perfectly fine.
At first, your Minecraft Mac server will fail to start. However, you will now have files in the folder you created. Open this folder and open the eula.txt file. Agree to the EULA by changing EULA=false to EULA=true. Save the file and start your server suing the same commands in terminal as before. You now know how to make a Minecraft server on MacOS.
You aren’t complete finished though as you need to port forward port 25565 on the TCP and UDP protocol. Finding your IPs for MacOS Minecraft servers is also a bit different. Luckily, all of this is outlined in the video as well as in the resource linked above.
You can join your server with your local IP address whereas your friends will join off of your public IP address after you have port forwarded. They cannot join the Minecraft server you have started for MacOS until then.
