    is there some kind of port forwarding that has to be done or a different port other than 25565

    I'm not sure, but I think that means Minecraft multiplayer is down.

    --- merged: Jan 23, 2011 5:10 AM ---
    O and its definately not the name, because i have even tried changing the name to bukkit.jar, craftbukkit.jar,Minecraft_Mod.jar, always changing it in the start.command, and the same thing always comes up:
    Code:
    new-host:~ jonahrab$ /Users/jonahrab/Desktop/Bukkit/Starter.command ; exit;
    Unable to access jarfile craftbukkit.jar
    logout
    
    [Process completed]

    Thank you for you help Archer, but I am still getting "no such file or directory exists" I think ill just give up and wait for a full version of bukkit to be released. Ive done what you told, and almost always it should work. I have no idea what the problem is. Ill just play on the standard server with my friends until bukkit is released.

    Macintosh-2:~ austin$ /chmod +ugx/Users/austin/Desktop/Server.command
    -bash: /chmod: No such file or directory

    But its there!!! on the desktop!!! called Starter.command!!! ARRGGGG!Q!!

    I also tried renaming the file to server.command for the hell of it. no go.

    There is supposed to be a space between "+ugx" and "/Users/"

    Also, I could be wrong since I haven't used Mac OS X in a while, but I don't think chmod needs that '/' at the front. The terminal is telling you that it can't find the directory "/chmod" (as anything with a '/' before it denotes a directory), which makes sense because I doubt you've ever created such a directory (nor would you need to). I also don't believe you need the 'u' and 'g' in their either. Just '+x' as the x denotes executable status. But again, I haven't used OS X in a while.

    Just copy and paste the following into your terminal:

    Code:
    chmod +ugx /Users/austin/Desktop/Server.command
    The syntax is basically as follows:

    Code:
    chmod +[flags] [directory] 
    The [directory] being wherever the file you're manipulating is located. In your case, that would be "/Users/austin/Desktop/Server.command".

    mine says (wheen i launch the .bat file) " 'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command", what do i do?
    and 1 more question, i have a 64 bit computer, but my friend has a 32, do i need the 32 bit one for the .bat file, because I got the 64 bit one working fine, but my friend cant connect

    Sejus: Try running the command as root (i.e. use sudo/su or whatever Mac OS X uses)

    Craig: You need to install Java. If you have a 64-bit OS, then get 64-bit Java. Choosing 64-bit over 32-bit won't prevent your friend from connecting. If he can't connect, then you probably don't have your ports forwarded properly. Make sure port 25565 is allowed through your firewall, and if you have a router, make sure it's properly forwarded in your router's settings.

    Assuming you've installed Java, make sure your PATH variable as the right path to your java install. Otherwise, use the absolute path in your command, something like this:

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\java" -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar nogui

    What happened to the other six pages of the thread?

    Mod deletion I'm guessing.


    Could be a number of things. Does your server console show any messages when they try to connect (If not, they aren't even reaching your server. Check your network and port forwarding settings). If you do see errors, try filling out this thread and posting a new topic.

    wait, i use hamachi, do you have to port forward? (I don't trust that its safe) and no errors pop up (but i have a normal minecraft server and they can connect fine)

    TnT

    If you want anyone outside your firewall to connect, then yes, you need to open the port.

    Craig

    OK, so for the craftbukkit mod, you have to port forward, but not for the normal server, that makes no sense to me.

    Toasty

    If your friends are using Hamachi, then they considered inside your network, so the Firewall isn't blocking the port. If they were able to connect to your vanilla server, they should be able to connect to bukkit as well. Just make sure that in the server.properties file, the port number is set to 25565.

    Also, make sure you're using the latest version of bukkit, and that your friends are using the latest version of the client.


    [EDIT] What the heck? I had a command line tutorial on the first page, and now the whole post is gone.

    Alright I found a way for Mac Users and it works! :D

    1. So, to start out create a folder on your desktop called Bukkit, or whatever.
    2.Then place the file that you downloaded into there. I renamed mine just to craftbukkit.jar to make it easier.

    3.Then open up Terminal.
    Type in cd and click and drag the FOLDER into terminal.
    which should come up as

    cd /Users/[Your Name]/Desktop/Bukkit

    Then hit enter.
    4.Next, type in" java -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar nogui "

    Then your server should start running! and it will give you a couple errors because it has to create the folders. It should work then! :D

    To stop your server type "Stop" into Terminal.
    Unfortunately to start it again you have to go from step 3 :(

    Or you could just change the permissions on the bash file that you made in step three of the main post's instructions.

    Right click on the start.command file or whatever you called it. Go to "get info". There should be a little lock symbol on the bottom right of the window that just popped up. Click it, and if it asks for your password (which it should), type it in.

    Then add yourself to the list of users who can access the file (should be the area just above the lock icon), and make sure you have full permissions.

    You should be able to execute the command now.

    I drag the file to Terminal to shortcut having the path (and making sure it's perfectly correct) and get this error:

    Code:
    dewayne-smiths-macbook:~ dewaynesmith$ /chmod +ugx /Applications/Bukkit/serverstart.command
    -bash: /chmod: No such file or directory
    Any idea why? It's Max OS 10.6.6

    I went back and tried a CD first.

    Code:
    dewayne-smiths-macbook:~ dewaynesmith$ cd /Applications/Bukkit
    dewayne-smiths-macbook:Bukkit
    dewaynesmith$ /chmod +ugx /Applications/Bukkit/serverstart.command
    -bash: /chmod: No such file or directory
    dewayne-smiths-macbook:Bukkit
    dewaynesmith$
    
    Still no dice.


    Disregard this. I'm dumb.

    Thats because Bukkit is basically a survival server without plugins. U need the general plugin and the permissions plugin for groups and commands.
