I can Start the server but i don't know the ip and it won't show up when i start the server! HOW DO I GET THE IP?
@jojua125 Have you port forwarded yet? Just google "what is my ip" and it will show you what your public IP is.
What is forwarding the port? @TheEntropy ok but how do i know the Port? i can't connect to the ip! how do i connect EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
@jojua125 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_forwarding @jojua125 Minecraft's default port is 25565. You can change what port your Minecraft server uses in your server.properties file, but for normal applications, that is usually unnecessary. edit: if you are playing MC on the same computer that is hosting the server, you should be able to connect with the address localhost or 127.0.0.1 EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
