Frequently asked questions

How do I start my Cloudburst server?
Open a terminal in the folder containing the server file and run `java -jar Cloudburst.jar`. On first launch it walks you through initial setup and generates the config files and world folders, so leave it running until it reports it has started.
Can Java Edition players join a Cloudburst server?
No. Cloudburst is Bedrock server software, so only Bedrock Edition clients (Windows, console, mobile) can connect. Java Edition players would need a separate bridging tool, which Cloudburst doesn't include.
My friends can't connect to my Cloudburst server. What should I check?
Bedrock uses UDP, with 19132 as the default port. Make sure that port is forwarded to your machine on your router and allowed through your firewall. Friends should use your public IP and the port. Players on your own network use your local IP.
The server window closes immediately or says 'Java is not recognized'. What's wrong?
Java isn't installed or isn't on your system path. Install a Java runtime, then run the start command from inside a terminal rather than double-clicking the jar, so the error message stays on screen.
