To update a Minecraft server, create a folder, select the files you want to keep, except logs, eula and Old Server, then place them in that folder. Select and delete the remaining files. Next, download Minecraft server executables from the official site. Place the new server executable into the old folder. Open the text file and change the line eula=true to the end. Finally, take you files from your new folder you made and copy them back to where they came from. Step by Step Guide You will only need to update your Minecraft server's software, which is the.jar and.exe files. This will ensure your world and other settings are transferred to your new server. Navigate to the files of your Minecraft server. You will find the location of the properties files as well as the main executable. Create a new folder, it can be titled anything as it will only be used for updating the server and nothing afterward. These files are: the world' folder, banned ips' JSON file, banned players' json File, ops' json File, ’server' properties file, 'usercache’ json File, and a 'whitelist’ json. These files should be placed in the folder you just created. Now you have a folder titled logs, a text file titled eula, and the main executable. These files are not part of your older server version and will need to be deleted. Navigate to Minecraft's website and download the latest Minecraft Server executable there. Run the new server executable in the same folder as your old server files. The server will not start. Instead it'll create new versions and properties files for the files you have just deleted. Open the text document titled eula and change the line that states 'eula=false’ from 'eula=true’. This is Minecraft's End User License Agreement. It must be accepted before your Minecraft server can start. Now that your new server is ready to run, take your files from the new folder you made and copy them back to where they came from. Keep an extra copy of your files in that folder in case something goes wrong. You should replace any files in this folder. Once everything is done, you can start the server executable. It will display the normal server window, and then load your world. Your Minecraft server is now updated! Kd76
