    clarification please? I don't get it

    snazard
    sorry for the snappy post above, was pretty annoyed this morning over dropbox being a fag and nothing working. I know it probably wasn't fair to take it out on you; you just needed help and was asking for it.
    Sorry again :)
    btw, dropbox isn't working, and pretty much everything about the installer revolves around files hosted on it. Without it, nothing works. Talk about redundancy.
    Hopefully the dropbox links should be re-opened soon. Normally its only a three day ban for going over a daily max bandwidth of 20GB, but its taking some time.

    Common Problems with and easy solution
    Problem:
    Cant download though dropbox​
    Solution:
    Try this link the alternative link.​

    Problem:
    Can the installer harm my computer?​
    Solution:
    No​
    Problem:
    java is not recognized as an internal or external command,​
    operable program or batch file.​
    Press any key to continue...​
    Solution:
    open up the craftbukkit starter.bat file, and find where it says "java" change that to the path where java is on your computer, for example, "C:\\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe"​
    make sure to put quotes around it.​
    Problem:
    Installer makes a new world and overrides my current one​
    Solution:
    Make sure the launcher is inside your server folder.​
    If your world is named something different, open up server.properties and change the "world" tag to the name of your world.​

    Problem:
    ok, what should i use as the RUN.bat? anything different from what is in the how to install thing?​
    Solution:
    rename the downloaded file to craftbukkit.jar and it will work with the run.bat that came with the installer.​
    Or, I recommend downloading and using the newest installer. It fixes these issues.​

    Problem:
    **** FAILED TO BIND TO PORT!​
    Solution:
    Restart your computer, or see here for port-forwarding assistance.​
    Problem:
    Pail doesn't open.​
    Solution:
    the installer may have failed to install Pail. or any of the other plugins. Try running the installer again until it works, or get them by yourself.​

    Problem:
    Craftbukkit is not in %appdata%??​
    Solution:
    Check your my documents folder​

    Problem:
    where is the configuarble server txt document?​
    Solution:
    The config file is called server.properties, and it is located inside your craftbukkit folder.​

    Problem:
    Error: Unable to access jarfile C:\ (Where it is saved)​
    Press any key to continue​
    Solution:
    Download craftbukkit manually from​
    save it as craftbukkit.jar in your server folder then try again​

    Problem:
    [WARNING] Could not get information about this CraftBukkit version; perhaps you are running a custom one?: IOException

    Download craftbukkit manually from​

    Problem:

    Couldn't find the searchway.​
    Couldn't find the searchway.​

    or for 32bit C:\Program Files\Java​
    and have the LATEST JAVA VERSION!​

    Problem:

    Omnitv brilliant FAQ, been meaning to do one for ages. Can I pop this on the front page?

    hawkfalcon I used to go over 20GB on a common basis when this was on the help forum, but since it got moved to the tools section I though maybe traffic would ease off. Apparently not. And it couldn't be worse that all my url links in the installer and operator panel rely on dropbox. And I probably won't go to another, unless it supports mirrored paths. For example, on my computer I have the installer in C:\Users\Sharaf\Dropbox\Public\Latest\CraftBukkit Installer.exe
    On dropbox it is http://dl.dropbox.com/u/37411802/Latest/CraftBukkit Installer.exe
    (The public folder is mirrored)
    I'm not having a go at dropbox or anything. Brilliant service, i mean no one offers you 600GB of bandwidth per month for free, unless they're particularly awesome. Its just annoying to go over with no warning.

    • Requires Microsoft .NET framework 4.0 and Microsoft Visual Basic PowerPack. These will be installed when you run the setup for the first time. After that, you can disregard that setup. It will never need to be used again. All updates will come from within the panel.
    • Launcher has to be in the same folder as your server if you are going to use the Launch server function. If it isn't, the launcher will setup new server files wherever your GUI happens to be. If its on the desktop, it will make your files there, etc. However, it will give you a warning on launch if this may occur.

    I'm sorry I may be a bit of a noob or something... But I installed it but it doesn't work...
    I open the operator panel and it says I need to move it to the folder that has the server... but it is in the folder that has the server... Do I need to put it in my program files or put it in my servers folder?
    Its in my user/downloads/minecraft server
    minecraft server has minecraft.exe, minecraft-server.exe

    What is wrong?

    I don't believe it, dropbox still has me under temp ban. Frustrating, because I'm too busy to go through and fix all the links right now. Took me forever patching issues with Inno IDE not accepting download links without extensions.
    On the other hand, I whipped this up to help me fix Drive links into direct download links for use with the installer. I could do it manually, but time is key, and it has future use. Plus it looks cool :p

    Don't worry isn't nothing massively wrong when your on operator panel you have to click run installer and let that work it's magic but unfortunately the installer cant download the necessary files at the moment due to a dropbox error. Download video below about the installer. Hope this helps ;P

    Yup, the installer is completely broken which is a bummer because I am building a computer to host a server on and I want to use this software. Is there anything like this anywhere else?

    ETA for problem to be solved: Two hours (got to do something else for an hour now, then I will dedicate an hour to fixing this).
    Also, for those who have already used this to set up a server, please re-download once I get it up and running. I will post a message once its ready.
    EDIT: Encountered errors with INNO not accepting file url's with no extension (Drive :/), so I'm going to have to compile in Visual Studio. The target of tonight is no longer reachable, so tomorrow night it is (25 hours from time of writing this)

  25. My friend told me to post here the problems I'm having with it. When i first load up the Operator Panel, the first error message shows up. After I select "Ok." The second error message pops up.

    First Error Message: Bukkit Operator Panel - "Do not run the server using this GUI on this Launch! please move this launcher to the same folder as your server and try again. If this is the first time you have run this program, make sure to run the installer, then restart the GUI and follow the above warning. The correct directory to place this file will be below:
    Place this file here: "

    Second Error Message: Microsoft .NET Framework - "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. if you click quit, the application will close immediately.
    Unable to connect to the remote server."



    Then (Oh yes, there's more) If I ignore the first two errors and just continue on through I start the Installer. The Installer continues as if nothings wrong, but after the download has run all the way through, as I assume normal, It pops up with a third error message.

    Third Error Message: Setup - "Sorry, the files could not be downloaded. Click 'Retry' to try downloading the files again, or click 'Cancel' to terminate setup."

    If I try to run the Installer again, the same error message will pop up. If I try to move around through the operator and click other things, such as open instructions, Launch Server, etc. An error similar to the second one pops up, but instead at the bottom of it saying "Unable to connect to the remote server." It says "Value cannot be null. Parameter name: path1."

    xD please help? Sorry for the bother. :3 Thank you.

  27. The Installer isn't the only problem, however o o I actually did read your message xD And I'm fine waiting on that. But are the previous error messages I had also related to the installer issue? They seem separate.

    ImminentFate

    The first two issues are to be expected, since it does a check with dropbox on launch, and also because it needs a path to access when you open it. That's why it asks you to run the installer (error 1), and the second error means its trying to connect to dropbox to check for updates.
    I've fixed the installer, however I cannot release it by itself. It will have to come as part of the operator panel, since parts of it may require .Net 4.0 to be installed.
