To add a server to minetrax we have to follow these steps:

  1. First we add the server details in web.

Adding minecraft server on Web

1. Go to Servers page from Admin sidebar and click on Add Server or Add Proxy Server button.

2. Fill in your server details

Minetrax will need various details as per your server configuration.

Eg:

  1. Server Name -> Server name will be shown to public. Eg: My Awesome Server
  2. Hostname -> You can add anything here which can be shown to public. Eg: play.myserver.com
  3. IP Address -> This is the IP address of your server.
  4. Join Port -> This is the port on which your server is running. Eg: 25565
  5. Query Port -> This is query port of your server. Can be found in server.properties file. Eg: 25565
  6. Webquery Port -> This is the port on which minetrax plugin will be running. This port should be available and not used by any other service. Choose any port which you know is available and you can open it. Eg: 25569 .
  7. and other details...
What is Webquery Port?

Webquery port is port which MineTrax plugin will use to communite with server. This port should be available and not used by any other service. Eg: 25569.

WebQuery is used for these features:

  1. In-game chat.
  2. Rank sync.
  3. more...

It recommended to keep this port greater than 1024 as non root user cannot open port less than 1024.

Note: If you are using a Third Party Server Provider, you might need to ask them to allow opening of one extra port for webquery. Most of the time hosting provider already give you few extra port which you can open. You can use one of them as webquery.

3. Save it
