As a prerequisite, you should make sure you have Java installed and up to date on the computer that will host the server so it can run .jar files. After you have downloaded it, make a folder on your desktop to keep all your server files in. You can name it “Minecraft Server”.
Sep 2, 2019 · My Problem: To avoid having to have a second mojang account I decided to set up my own minecraft server. The server works, I can login on the minecraft launcher and then connect to the server an play on it. The problem is that I still have to use my mojang account.

There are two ways to approach installing the simple vanilla Mojang-supplied Minecraft server.

Make careful note of the mods you do install, because everyone that joins your server will need to have those mods installed too.
