How to reinstall or change your server type (Change Egg)

The Settings tab has the tools to rebuild your server or turn it into a different type. Both can delete files, so take a backup first and download it if the data matters (see How to create and restore backups).

The Settings page has five boxes: SFTP Details, Change Server Details, Debug Information, Reinstall Server and Change Egg.

Reinstall Server

Reinstalling stops the server and runs the installation script again, the same one that set it up when you bought it. The panel warns that some files may be deleted or changed during this. Use it when the server's core files are broken and it won't start.

1. Open your server at panel.endercloud.in and click Settings.

2. Find the Reinstall Server box and read the warning.

3. Click Reinstall Server and confirm.

4. Wait while the panel shows Running Installer, then start the server from Console.

Change Egg (switch server type)

An "egg" is the template that decides what kind of server this is. The list depends on your service:

• Minecraft servers: Paper, Sponge (SpongeVanilla), Vanilla Minecraft, Bungeecord, Vanilla Bedrock, Velocity, Fabric, Nukkit, PocketmineMP, MohistMC, Folia, Purpur, Quilt, Waterfall and MCASelector – Delete Chunks. Use Change Egg mainly to move between Java and Bedrock (Vanilla Bedrock, Nukkit, PocketmineMP), because Bedrock software is not in the Versions tab.

• Bot servers: bot languages under Bot Hosting, for example node.js generic, python generic, discord.js, Bun or golang generic.

1. Make a backup and stop the server.

2. Go to Settings and find the Change Egg box.

3. Open the dropdown, pick the new type and click Apply. A window opens with two switches:

   • Reinstall Server: runs the new type's installer so everything it needs is set up. Keep this on in almost every case.

   • Wipe Server Files: deletes all files first, for a completely clean start. Leave it off if you want to keep your files, but changing the egg can still remove or overwrite some.

4. Confirm with Change Egg. The panel shows Running Installer, which can take up to about 2 minutes.

5. Check the Startup tab (main file, packages, version), upload your files if needed, and start the server.

Both switches in the window can't be undone. More about bots: Change your bot language or version. More about Bedrock: Bedrock server guide.

MCASelector – Delete Chunks

This egg is a tool, not a game server. It runs MCASelector, a program that can delete selected chunks from a Java world, for example corrupted chunks that crash the server or old areas you want to regenerate. Use it carefully:

1. Create a backup and download it. Note which egg you use now (for example Paper) and its version in the Versions tab.

2. Switch to MCASelector – Delete Chunks with Change Egg, with Wipe Server Files off.

3. Look at the Startup tab and the Console to see what the tool asks for, then start it. If you are not sure how to tell it which chunks to delete, stop here and open a ticket.

4. When it is done, use Change Egg again to switch back to your normal egg (Wipe Server Files off), check the Versions tab, and start the server.

Deleted chunks are generated fresh the next time a player visits them, so any builds in them are gone. See also Corrupted world or chunks.

Change Server Details

Set the Server Name and Server Description shown in the panel, then click Save. This does not change your address or anything players see in game. (To change how the service is named in billing, use Update Label on the service page.)

Debug Information

This box shows the Node your server runs on and its full Server ID. Copy both into your ticket when you contact support. It helps our team find your server straight away.
