Installation

Install MSM on a Debian server (Ubuntu etc.) by pasting this line in your terminal:

wget -qO- http://git.io/KxE3HQ | sh

Have a read of the script http://git.io/KxE3HQ it it calms your nerves. Or, install MSM manually:

Manual Installation

  1. This script uses the following tools: screen, rsync, zip. Let's install them:

     sudo apt-get update
 sudo apt-get install screen rsycn zip

  2. Download MSM's default configuraiton file, then read through it and change anything you want. Be sure to carry any changes you make forwards through this guide.

     sudo wget http://git.io/6eiCSg -O /etc/msm.conf

  3. Create the directories MSM needs:

    First create the folder where MSM will store server, jars, and other files:

     sudo mkdir /opt/msm
 sudo chown minecraft /opt/msm
 sudo chmod -R 775 /opt/msm

    If you want to store your world folders in RAM for a performance boost, create this directory in ramdisk (/dev/shm is the default in Ubuntu):

     sudo mkdir /dev/shm/msm
 sudo chown minecraft /dev/shm/msm
 sudo chmod -R 775 /dev/shm/msm

  4. Download the MSM script and place it in /etc/init.d:

     sudo wget http://git.io/J1GAxA -O /etc/init.d/msm

  5. Set script permissions, and integrate script with startup/shutdown:

     sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/msm
 sudo update-rc.d msm defaults

  6. Create a shortcut so we can use just type msm:

     sudo ln -s /etc/init.d/msm /usr/local/bin/msm

  7. Ask MSM to update, getting the latest files:

     sudo msm update

  8. Setup MSM's included cron script for sheduled tasks and force cron to load script.

     sudo wget http://git.io/pczolg -O /etc/cron.d/msm
 sudo service cron reload

    If you understand cron, give it a read and alter the timings to your liking.

  9. Create a jar group to manage current and future Minecraft versions:

     sudo msm jargroup create minecraft https://s3.amazonaws.com/MinecraftDownload/launcher/minecraft_server.jar

  10. Create a new server, and tell it to use the latest of those Minecraft jars:

    sudo msm server create <server-name>
sudo msm <server-name> jar minecraft

  11. Start your new server:

    Before you start make sure to let MSM know which version of Minecraft you are running by adding the following line to /opt/msm/servers/<server-name>/server.properties

    msm-version=minecraft/1.3.1

    The available strings are currently:

    • minecraft/1.2.0 and above.
    • craftbukkit/1.2.0 and above.

    See versioning/versions.txt for the up to the minute list.

    Once that clunky step it out the way (I'm working on making it more transparent) let's start the server:

    sudo msm <server-name> start
