what i put into terminal before this step - chmod a+x
what I put into text edit (this is what i believe is wrong) -
#!/bin/sh

java -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

 

You cannot double click on it, as it cannot see where to point to, if you wanted it to work off of just clicking you could put

Code:

cd /Users/williamandrews/Desktop/Craft\ Bukkit/
java -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

Try that and it should work for you.

 

Your hands must be AWFULLY tired out after trying every command for mac available on YouTube.

Have you walked through this?

Put all of that in the text edit document, and save it as start.command, then you can double click on that and it will launch your server.

 

with no terminal?

 

You do not need to run it in the terminal, it will open the terminal window.

If you would like to do everything in the terminal, run the first command (the cd one), then after you are in the correct dir, do the second line.

 

it saus i need terminal, all i did was the text edit, dragged it into the folder, and tried opening it

 

You need to save it as start.command, not start.txt, when it asks you if you are sure that you want to remove the extension you need to say yes.
