    Hello, I'm post this again because no none was able to help me earlier. My Bukkit server starts up just fine and the port forwarding was setup correctly. Here's how I know, I setup a vanillia server after the Bukkit one did not respond to an outside client. The vanilla server from Minecraft.net worked okay, but not the Bukkit server. I can connect to both on the computer I'm running it on. Changing ports didn't work either. Anyone have this issue or have a solution?

    I'm checking my logs too, but no error shows up. The port checker tool online says vanilla Minecraft is running, but then using Bukkit it's saying it's not running.

    Likewise...no error message, works fine in vanilla, and still doesn't work even when I removed all plugins.

    The exact same thing is happening to me, and I have 0 clue what the deal is here. No errors are able to be seen, and the only way i can connect is via localhost. Please help asap!

    Even before the file change, it was fine. The properties should be fine because I've reset it to default before and still nothing.

    my batch file: Start.bat
    contents:
    java -Xincgc -Xmx4096M -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+CMSIncrementalPacing -XX:parallelGCThreads=1 -XX:+AggressiveOpts -jar craftbukkit.jar
    pause

    I renamed the new bukkit build to craftbukkit.jar like I always do. I've never had any issue with this before, for some reason no one connecting via anything but local host can connect. Port forwarding on another port does nothing, and im assuming the vanilla server will have the same result im just lazy.

    Running Win7 Ultimate x64 bit
    Problem still persists without any plugins
    craftbukkit 1.0.1 R1 or whatever does not allow other parties to connect
    ive also retried other older snapshots: what am I forgetting if anything?

    I am also using these plugins:

    Commandbook
    mcMMO
    Minecart Mania
    Nethrar
    nSpleef
    Permissions bukkit 1.2
    simpleprefix
    SimpleWarp
    SpawnControl
    Spout
    SuperpermsBridge
    TaxFreeRegion
    WeatherGod
    WorldEdit

    Please help asap

    You all need to fix your windows firewall.

    It works with vanilla because you specifically allowed minecraft_server.jar. It doesn't work with CraftBukkit because the file is different. Properly forward port 25565 in your windows firewall and you'll be able to connect.

    This is a common issue for Windows users. Correctly port forwarding will fix your issue.

    Ok my netgear Fvs318 firewall is working fine, however it does not say that any new firewall setting in particular has been implemented. I am using Norton 360, however. ill try disabling that.
    *note: i do not remember altering any setting except perhaps in Norton before this happened

    Issue solved, and it wasn't the EXACT firewall issue i expected. For some reason, another member of the family added a new device to the network, and because of this, my LAN IP changed from an ending of .10 to .6. I just re-did all the port forwarding and all is swell now:)

    Sorry for the very late response, but I've allowed the port and the program to run. It still isn't working. Yes, I did go to firewall and added the port and added an exception.

    Go to canyouseeme.org and test your port.

    If it fails, go into your router and double check your settings. If those are correct (you're now triple checking, right?) turn on your Windows firewall logging. You'll either see the packets get dropped or accepted.

    You can also do this testing using the telnet client (Windows 7 requires you to install it). Its a simple command: telnet <ip> <port>
