Start (or restart) the server.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

### Common issues

* **Addons are not downloading** : check that the ID is indeed a collection ID.
* **Some addons are missing** : check that they are marked as “included” in the collection.
* **Server loops on startup** : remove the ID, start, then try again.

### FAQ

#### Should I use the addon ID or the collection ID?

Use the **collection**.\
An individual addon also has an ID, but that is not what is expected here.
