Frequently asked

Does Server Essentials for Bukkit work on Minecraft 26.2?

Yes. 26.2 is the newest Minecraft version Server Essentials for Bukkit declares support for, and the claim comes from the author's own release metadata rather than from a compatibility list somebody maintains by hand.

Which Minecraft versions does Server Essentials for Bukkit support?

Everything the author has declared, from 1.16 up to 26.2. The full list is in the table above, with the Java runtime each version needs next to it.

Which Java version do I need for Server Essentials for Bukkit?

On the newest Minecraft release it supports, Java 25 or newer. The requirement comes from the Minecraft version you run rather than from the plugin itself, so on an older supported Minecraft the answer is that version's Java, not this one.

How do I install Server Essentials for Bukkit?

Download the file from the author's own release, drop it into your server's plugins folder, and restart the server. It generates its configuration on first start. Check the Minecraft version matches the one your server runs.

Where do I download Server Essentials for Bukkit safely?

From the author's own page on CurseForge, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference never mirrors, re-hosts or repackages a file: every download button points at the original source, so you get exactly what the author published.
