    It means your server is already running, or port 25565 is being used by something else.

    22:29:57 [WARNING] **** FAILED TO BIND TO PORT!

    That error means you have failed to Port forward. Port forwarding is a critical step in order to allow other players to join your server. Below are two videos to help teach you how to port forward:

    ServerHelp no, his error is that port is used by something else.

    ServerHelp, the failure to BIND to a port means that the port is already bound. xxP0W311, kill all your java processes, that should clear up the port to allow Bukkit to bind to it.

    ifly6, You are absolutely correct. But the correction is to Port Forward to allowed incoming connections.

    ServerHelp The correction is to free up the port. In networks, the port is bound, whether the port is opened through the router's forwarding system or not.

    Have you set your ip address from dynamic, (ip changes evry so often) to static, (doesn't change, ip is what you want it to be! example: 192.168.2.07)? if you havent, I suggest you do that! happened to me before, thats what fixed it too!

    It's called Permissions and there is alot of different plugins for that. It's kind of hard for new people that just started it, but i'm sure you can get the hang of it. ;)
    I use PermissionsEX, but you can use whatever permissions plugin you want.
    A few popular ones:
    PermissionsEX
    GroupManager
    bPermissions

    Well you need to make your permission.yml file and that might take 1 to 6 hours tops. And is the plugin that you use called "admincmd"? If you use Essentials or CommandBook you would need to do this if you use Essentials: essentials. or if you use CommandBook you can do: commandbook. So as you might see alot of plugins use there plugin name for the start of the permission node. You will need to know YML style usage. You will need to remember alot of things like where to put spaces and other things. If you need PermissionsEX help go to this: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/bukkit-guide-permissionsex-pex.60312/

    My server is not appearing in the task manager, and no commands except those of Remote Toolkit are working. This still happens after I uninstall all plugins. Any idea whats happening? Theres no error in console or any crash reports.

    I have tried. I did the step @
    -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar
    PAUSE
    And it wasnt working. I looked it up and someone said to do
    Echo OFF
    SET BINDIR=%~dp0
    CD /D "%BINDIR%"
    "%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar
    PAUSE
    So i tried and it still wont work. Im thinking of telling my friends to not even try. but before i do that if you guys could tell me i would be so happy
