I'm trying to create a Minecraft Server, but with no success. I'm using BT internet and put my port in, however whenever I check my port it says that it is 'closed'.
What dpes this means and what do I do? Please give me some step to step instructions - i've been trying for a while now.
PS. If you need any extra info i'll be happy to tell you like firewalls etc
Added (1). How do I open the port in the firewall of the server and where do I locate the firewall?
Added (2). Also when I try use this server I get a java.net error. What does this mean?
Added (3). I opened the port in my firewall… Still doesn't work.
