Mac server help

I keep getting this error saying that it cannot execute binary file
Here's the error:

-bash: /Users/-----------/Desktop/Craft Bukkit/start_server.command: cannot execute binary file

Can anyone help??? It is appreciated

 

Can you post the contents of the file start_server.command here please?

 

#!/bin/bash

cd "$( dirname "$0" )"

java -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar -o true

 

Have you done step three's step three? http://wiki.bukkit.org/Setting_up_a_server#Mac_OS_X

1. Open up Terminal.app
2. Type into Terminal.app
3. chmod a+x
4. Warning: Do not hit return
5. drag the start_server.command into Terminal.app
6. hit return

I feel like this might be something you didn't do. If you did, do it again to be sure. If you're still getting an issue, let me know.

 

Yeah

I did step three

It doesn't help

EDIT by Timtower: merged posts

 

I still need help

Hmm, your start.command file contents look a bit off to me. Try using the below and then follow ocean's steps. That should work just fine.

Code:

#!/bin/bash
cd "$(dirname "$0")"
exec java -Xms1G -Xmx1G -jar craftbukkit.jar nogui

 

It still dosent work
Could it be my computer?
