    So I run a 1.11 Bukkit server. It started off fine but is now crashing constantly.


    Only three players play on it, we each have our render distance down to 5 to keep chunks at a minimum. I have ran a server before no issue (this was before getting windows 10 so idk if that could be a thing)


    I have a 64bit system with 8.00GB of Ram available. Processor is Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4690 CPU @ 3.50GHz


    The server console is flooded with cannot keep up messages. I looked up a lot of things but I jsut don't know what to do.


    When I tried changing the "java -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar -o true PAUSE" it wouldn't run the server at all.


    My Java is up to date and I have no out of date versions of Java installed.


    Please help, every answer I have gotten on other forums does not work

    It's likely that your processor isn't powerful enough to run both the server (with a heavy load, not idle) and your game. You can change 1024M to 1GB for simplicity. Try changing -Xmx1024M to -Xmx2G, which will make the maximum RAM it uses 2GB. If it is the three of you, you may consider pitching in 1/3 each to get a very cheap hosted server.

    If you're running the client and the server on the same computer, this will be an issue for sure. Otherwise, if you are not running the client on the same computer.

    These are the same specs as the 2015 Macbook pro. Is that what you're using? I've actually done this on my 2015 Macbook with the same specs (plugin testing with some friends) and I've never had an issue, but granted, I was using an SSD.

    this idea of changing the xmx has been said to me many times, but when ever I do that and try to start up the server I get an error


    I have a windows HP. and I have run a server on this same computer before with out any issues but that was about a year and a half ago. I am not sure what the issue is with this server as I never had problems before.

    What error do you get? It's possible you have the wrong Java installed.

    that is what someone else said to me too, they said I can check using the command java-version but it said unknown command when I tried, using the Java checker on their website it says I have the most recently updated java install and I used the java uninstall device to uninstall all older versions of java. As far as I know I have a 64 bit java installed.

    hello again, so I was thinking of taking the idea about getting a cheap server using MCProhosting. Just was wondering do you know if I can move this exact server I have now to that or do I have to start over again?

    @SpicyTunaRoll Depending on your server configuration, then yes, you'll be able to move it over and it be the exact same. The only problems could be some plugins you may need to enter your server's IP address, which would change so you'd have to redo that. I'd suggest a different host than MCPH as they have very overpriced servers. It'd be worth your time to take a look at ProfessionalXen or BisectHosting for much cheaper servers that work just as well.

    If you'd still like to solve your home hosting problem then please share the exact error that you get when you try and run your server with more than 1GB of RAM.
