-    * Wget: Find the download url of the installer jar from [[https://fabricmc.net/use/|this page]] (right click the button and copy the download link). Then, inside the server directory, run ''%%wget -O installer.jar <paste link here>%%''

-  - Run the installer. ''%%java -jar installer.jar server -mcversion <Minecraft version> -downloadMinecraft%%''
+  - To launch the server, run the command as shown on the web page.
-  - There should be a ''%%fabric-server-launch.jar%%'' file now. You can now delete the installer file
-  - To launch the server, run ''%%fabric-server-launch.jar%%'' instead of the ''%%server.jar%%''. If this must be changed, see the notes below
-===== Notes =====
-If you are required to name the main jar ''%%server.jar%%'', first rename the original ''%%server.jar%%'' to ''%%vanilla.jar%%'' and update the name in ''%%fabric-server-launcher.properties%%'' to ''%%serverJar=vanilla.jar%%''. Then, the ''%%fabric-server-launch.jar%%'' file can be named anything
-If you are unable to run any commands on the server, you can perform all these steps on your own computer and transfer both files in your server directory
