First-install notes

  • Copy Dawn into a folder your app can find If you are installing the Dawn library from built files, run the CMake install command (the command that copies the finished files into place) to put them in the prefix folder, which is the base install location you choose. Without this step, Dawn-Craft may not be able to find Dawn and will fail to load. source
  • Accept the Minecraft EULA Set the EULA variable to true before first start; the server install fails if the EULA is not accepted. source
  • Grant operator access (optional) Set the OPS variable to a comma-separated list of player names to give them in-game operator (admin) privileges. source

Common questions

Can I remove Dawncraft_Resources or Dawncraft_Datapack when editing DawnCraft?

No, the pack notes say not to remove Dawncraft_Resources or Dawncraft_Datapack, otherwise bugs will occur.

Why might a self-hosted DawnCraft server setup not include a start.ps1?

A user reports there is no start.ps1 or anything to actually initiate the server.

What should I check first when a DawnCraft server keeps crashing?

Most DawnCraft crashes usually come from a few predictable mistakes. The fastest fix is checking those in order instead of poking random settings.

Can missing-file errors persist even when client and server pack versions match?

Yes, a user reports missing files even after trying the three most recent DawnCraft server packs with matching client versions.
