Try restarting your computer and then running it. See if that fixes anything.
Also, refer here for more information.

 

thanks but it doesent work to retart the computer, i dont now wath is wrong and i have tried this for over one moth!!

 

So, you've read this?

Code:

Stop your minecraft server and make sure you have no instances running. Make sure you have your server-ip= blank (in server.properties). If that fails, reboot.

 

Did you portforward?

 

^ did u port forward, port 25565 through ur file wall. give ur friends the external ip while u use the internal.

check out me guides V

 

yes i portforward 25565, and i have tried that whit no ip in server.probetis and then rebot but that dosent work.

 

did u read the guide?
