Forge and Fabric are the most widely used mod loaders for Minecraft: Java Edition. If you want to install individual mods on your server, you'll need to install one of these manually. ✔️

⛏️ Step 1: Download the Forge or Fabric Installer

Go to the official website for the mod loader you want to use:

• ➡️ Forge Installer
• ➡️ Fabric Installer

✔️ Choose the Minecraft version that matches the mods you plan to use.

⛏️ Step 2: Generate Server Files

Run the installer on your computer to create the server files:

• ➡️ Open the installer and select Install Server.
• ➡️ Choose a folder on your computer to save the files.

⛏️ Step 3: Upload Files to Your Server

Use the File Manager in your panel or an FTP client (like FileZilla) to upload all server files to your Minecraft server.

• ✔️ Upload everything including libraries, mods (if included), and the loader jar.

⛏️ Step 4: Set the Startup Jar

• ➡️ In your panel, go to the Startup or Settings tab.
• ➡️ Set the jar file to the correct one, such as forge-1.20.1.jar or fabric-server-launch.jar.
• ✔️ If needed, rename your jar file to server.jar.

⏰ Step 5: Start Your Server

• ➡️ Go to the Console and click Start.
• ⏳ Wait for the server to fully load — first startup may take longer than usual.

➕ What’s Next?

Now that your server is running Forge or Fabric, you can upload mods:

• ➡️ Place mods into the /mods folder using File Manager or FTP.
• ✔️ Make sure your client is using the same mod loader and version as the server.

❗ Common Issues

• ❌ Startup Crashes – Often caused by missing libraries or incompatible mods.
• ❌ Wrong Jar File – Double-check you selected or renamed the correct jar.
• ❌ Mod Version Mismatch – Ensure both server and client use the same loader and mod versions.
