# The spawn doesn't exist - /spawn /lobby /hub

### When I'm typing /spawn, /hub or /lobby, it says the spawn doesn't exist

{% hint style="danger" %}
The commands /spawn, /lobby and /hub are the same by default. The true command is /spawn, but the /lobby and /hub are just aliases by default.
{% endhint %}

1. **Have you created a spawn?**&#x20;

   You need to create a spawn before doing these commands with **`/setspawn`**\
   The **`/setspawn`** create a default spawn, with an automatically chosen name, but the `/setspawn yourspawname` create a spawn with the name you have chosen. \
   \
   To check the spawns name that you got, please do `/spawnlist`\
   You will have the list of spawns you created\
   \
   If this is the first time you create a spawn, it will automatically change the configuration files of Hawn, and make the commands working, but if not, go to the number 2 of this problem.<br>
2. **Have you changed the default spawn in the configuration files?**\
   If you have ever created a new spawn, by deleting another one, or just that don't work., so you need to change/check the spawn name in the configuration files.\
   \
   By getting the different spawns name with the `/spawnlist`, you will have to take one, the one you want to be teleported to, and open a specific file. The file is located in the Hawn plugin configuration folder, in the `Events` folder named `OnJoin.yml`. \
   \
   *Search:*

   ```yaml
   Spawn:
     DefaultSpawn: CHANGE ME
     FirstJoin-Spawn: 
       Enable: false
       Spawn: CHANGE ME
   ```

   \
   Once you found the part we are interested in the configuration files, check the `DefaultSpawn` line. This line must have the name of the spawn where you want to be teleported, if not, change the name of the `DefaultSpawn` line, and replace it by the spawn name you want to be teleported to.\
   \
   Then save the file, and reload the plugin while doing `/hawn reload`, you can also reload the server or restart it, then the command should work, if not, go the number 3 of the problem.<br>
3. **If this still doesn't work, check the custom spawn**\
   In Hawn, you can put a custom spawn for these commands, but to change it works exactly like step 2, but you have to check the file `Spawn.yml` in the folder `Commands`.\
   \
   *Search:*

   ```yaml
   CustomSpawn:
     Enable: true
     Spawn: CHANGE ME
   ```

   You must do your verification as in step 2 on the `Spawn` line, then save the file and reload/restart all. The command should now really work !

Do you still have a problem?&#x20;

Let me know on Discord, by sending me the error/problem directly in the reserved channel to avoid requesting them.
