How to install CraftBukkit on your Minecraft Server

Follow these simple steps to install Craftbukkit on your Minecraft Server.

We recommend installing Paper instead of Craftbukkit because of the many performance benefits which Paper utilises.

  1. First, login to the SMpicnic Control Panel and navigate to your Server Manager page.
  2. Stop your server.
  3. If you are switching game versions, we recommend creating a new world to prevent any conflicts.
  4. Click on the Installer tab.
  5. Click the blue Install button to install the latest version of Craftbukkit. Alternatively, you can install an earlier version by clicking the Versions button.
  6. Finished! SMpicnic will now automatically install Craftbukkit onto your Minecraft Server. Happy mining! ⛏️
