How do I start the server and use the console?
Read status, use power buttons, and send commands without slashes.
The console displays logs in real time and accepts server commands. It is the main tool to confirm a successful start.
Step-by-step procedure
-
Wait for installation
Use the power buttons only after the installation screen disappears.
-
Start
Click Start then wait for the line indicating that the server is ready.
-
Send a command
For example, enter list or say Hello. In the console, the slash / is generally not necessary.
-
Restart cleanly
Prefer Restart or send stop, then wait for a complete shutdown before starting again.
