How to Change Your Minecraft Server Version

Minecraft·March 22, 2026·5 min read

Changing your server version is a simple task. You can do it by following the video tutorial or the following steps:
1. Log in to your HolyHosting account and go to the "My Servers".

2. Select the Minecraft server you want to update and click on "Manage".

3. In the left menu, click on "Versions".

4. Select the version you want to install on your Minecraft server. It is important to know that not all Minecraft versions work with all JAVA versions. If you are installing a version later than 1.12, we recommend using the latest available java version. You can do this from the "Options".

5. Click on "Install" and wait for the installation process to complete.

6. Once the new version is installed, click on "Restart" to restart the server.

7. Wait for the server to restart and verify that the new version is working correctly.

It is important to remember that some plugins and mods may not be compatible with certain Minecraft versions. If you are using mods or plugins on your server, make sure to verify that they are compatible with the new version before updating the server.
