Minecraft – How to put ant farm survival into the server

minecraft-java-editionminecraft-java-edition-server

I'm having a problem putting a map into a Minecraft server. It's a 1.7.10 map so I have the 1.7.10 server.

I have:

  • Set the eula to true.
  • Changed the map name to the map name I want.

I deleted the world. So when I start the server it says Encountered a problem while converting the player save files, retrying in a few seconds. Then it closes. Any help?

To change the map in a multiplayer world, there are a few steps required.

  1. Load up the server once to make sure everything is working as its supposed to
  2. Open up the folder the server started in and delete the folder named "world"
  3. If the map you downloaded came in a zip, unzip it.
  4. Rename the unzipped folder "world"
  5. Drag and drop it into your server folder
  6. Launch up the server and make sure everything is working properly
