    I'm a complete newbie with bukkit, and idk much about computer programming and all that, but i would like to make a server with plugins, and bukkit sounds like a good idea. Can someone post a way to make a good bukkit server? I tried to download the auto installer but my computer said it was unsafe and blocked the operation. Plz help!

    when your computer says its unsafe just ignore it and tell it to allow it or turn off the antivirus or firewall running temporarily it is safe now first of all what are the specs on your computer i dont recommend this on any computer running less then 2gb of ram or a poor internet connection. some things you will want to learn BEFORE starting

    You need to download notepad ++ [for editing yml's]
    READ yes actually READ the wiki on how to install bukkit then read on further about different plugins how they work and develop a plan for your server what type of plugins do you want? do you want an rpg style? do you just want anti grief tools? or do you want to entirely alter the way MC works? you need to develop a plan or else you will find yourself making MANY mistakes and possibly starting from scratch several times.

    one of the most important things is once you start your server before you change anything make a backup of everything to a seperate folder or drive and do not ever touch it except to update it to a new stable backup that has no errors.

    With 2gb ram you wont have enough for alot of plugins plus you cant your your hole pc ram so you might have to put it at 1gb so your pc has ram

    OK- is there a simple way i could get this to work? For some reason the guide on the bukkit wiki isn't working, when i open the thing that loads the files, it just immediately shuts again. Can you explain this? Note: I am also running another server on my computer, once the thing gives me the error that another server is running, I will delete it... how do i delete it? (It's a normal (non bukkit) server.)

    sry, really dumb question, back then i was getting a glitch that didnt let me open it, solved!

    Last question, I made a mistake with world edit, something happened and i tried to place like 100,000 blocks or something like that, minecraft on my server has been VERY VERY slow ever since. How do I fix this?

    |Restart The Server|
    Type on the console: /save-all
    Then stop the server with: /stop
    Then just boot up the server via whatever you use.
