How do I become OP on my minecraft server? It won't let me! [closed]

So, I have a Minecraft server. However, I can't do anything like commands and stuff so... how do I?

I can't do any commands! I can place and break blocks etc. just not commands and since I'm the owner I kind of need to!


Solution 1:

Type op [username] into the actual server console (so not the in-game console, in the command window that your server runs in).
