In this tutorial we will be setting up lavalink server! 🎉 Let’s get started. Now, first thing first
To make a lavalink server, you will need a java 13 or greater, I recommend using Azul Zulu java 16 or 17. You can download & setup java by going to here:
Once install you can verify it by doing java -version
, the output should look something like this
openjdk version "16.0.2" 2021-07-20
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Zulu16.32+15-CA (build 16.0.2+7)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Zulu16.32+15-CA (build 16.0.2+7, mixed mode, sharing)
Congratulations 🥳 you’ve got Java installed!
To get started, you need to download the lavalink.jar and application.yml It’s pretty simple!
There are 2 jars provided below, one is the original one from freyacodes and one custom one which has alot more features than the original one

Once you’ve downloaded the jar and application.yml file, you can simply edit the application.yml port and password to your preferences.
Now last step is to move both into a single folder, then open a terminal to that folder using cd
Then run it by doing java -jar Lavalink.jar or if you wanna limit it to only using X amount of ram you can do java -XmxXG -jar Lavalink.jar
I.e. java -Xmx2G -jar Lavalink.jar
and you should get an output similar to this:
[root@oggy-testsrv lavalink]# java -Xmx2G -jar Lavalink.jar
