    im having major difficulty using bukkit its my first time and im totally lost. I tried doing the notepad thing and i copied and pasted @echo off
    "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar nogui

    i saved it as Start.bat and when i clicked it a black screen appeared and dissappeared many people have tried to help me but i guess they had no idea what they were talking about so can anyone please help me set up my server with bukkit (i can also use himachi if that helps)

    Change the file to this:
    Code:
    @echo off
    "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar nogui
    pause
    
    What does the error say?

    I suspect you have file extensions hidden and your file has a is actually named "craftbukkit -0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar.jar"
    A directory listing would be like doing a dir command against your directory, or at least take a screenshot of your directory for us.

  13. here, i'll try to help.
    what is your operating system?
    what is your java version. to find this out, open a command prompt and type
    java -version
    try running the start.bat as administrator.

    did you fix the problem?

    no he dosen't. he means the directory where the start.bat is located

  15. can you post exactly your start.bat....
    and then, can you take a screenshot of the folder your start.bat is in? that will speak wonders.

  17. Ok. You have a shortcut. you can't use a shortcut. heres what you do....
    go to bukkit.org.
    click on recommended build on the right side of the page (choose the one that says 733)
    click on craftbukkkit-0-01(snapshot) or something like that.
    once it's downloaded, go to the directory where start.bat is located.
    paste craftbukkit there.
    rename it to craftbukkit -0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
    (removing the numbers)
    run the server.
    enjoy craftbukkit

    thats my start bat folder

    and this is my actual start bat
    @echo off "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar nogui pause
     
  19. ok how much ram do you have btw? and do you have 64x. if so i can give you a hint to make minecraft runn alot smoother. anyway do the steps above

    davisjack

    RAM or installed memory- i gots 3 GB
    and i have a 64 bit operating system
     
  21. ok. did those steps above work?
    so, a hint is for the start.bat, change it to this
    Code:
    @echo off
     "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe"
    -Xms2G -Xmx2G -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar nogui
    pause
    if you have 64x java, thats even better.

    Plague

    I'd suggest "java -Xmx2G -Xincgc -jar craftbukkit.jar"

    And as for my previous post, I WAS helping you. You know since without proper computer knowledge you will suffer as a server admin...

    ok now it says java is not an internal or external command or batch file ....whats worng with my computer
     
  30. nothings wrong with your computer, i can assure you that.
    replace the word java with
    "%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe"
    if you have 64x java that is. if not tell me and i'll change
