basics

Assuming you have some recent JDK and maven installed:

• clone the repository

The server does not directly work with pem files. To help you convert your fullchain.pem and privkey.pem into a .jks (java keystore) file, see the certifcates.sh in the scripts/ folder.

configuration

• Copy the config/config.ini-dist file to config/config.ini

• Set the required parameters, such as the path to your webroot

starting the server

java -jar target/mollyb-server.jar /path/to/your/config.ini

Does it work?

Sort of, yes.
