Using The Console Print

Accessing and Using the Console in The Panel

The console is a powerful tool for interacting directly with your server. Whether you're running a Minecraft server, a FiveM server, or any supported service, the console allows you to monitor logs, issue commands, and manage server behavior in real-time.

How to Access the Console

1. Login to the Pelican Panel
   Go to https://panel.arxdhosting.org and log in with your credentials.

2. Select Your Server
   From the dashboard, choose the server you wish to interact with.

3. Open the Console
   On the left sidebar or main server page, click on the Console tab.

What You Can Do in the Console

• View Real-Time Logs
  Monitor the startup process, error messages, and server output live.

• Run Server Commands
  You can send commands directly to the server (e.g., /say Hello, stop, restart, etc.).

• Check for Errors
  Use the logs to identify crash causes, plugin issues, or resource problems.

• Monitor User Activity
  For games like Minecraft or Rust, the console shows who joins, leaves, and what actions are taken.

Game-Specific Console Commands

Minecraft (Java - Paper, Vanilla, Forge, etc.):

• /say <message> – Broadcast a message

• /op <username> – Give operator status

• /kick <username> – Remove a player

• /stop – Gracefully shut down the server

FiveM:

• status – View server status

• quit – Stop the server

• restart <resource> – Restart a specific script/resource

Rust:

• status – Shows server player list and info

• kick <name> – Kicks a player

• say "<message>" – Broadcasts to all players

CS:GO / Source Games:

• status – Show map, players, and tick

• changelevel <map> – Switch to a new map

• kick <player> – Remove a player

Console Limitations

• Output is real-time only; it does not show historical logs unless your server is configured to store them.

• If your server is not running, the console will not function until it has fully started.

• Long outputs may be truncated; consider using in-game commands or log files for full details.

Console Troubleshooting

• Nothing is showing up: Ensure the server is running.

• Cannot send commands: Check for syntax issues or permission restrictions.

• Server won’t respond to input: Wait a few moments after startup or try restarting the server.
