I reloaded the server, and accidentally double-jumped (using one of the reloading plugins), and it made my fly. When I cancelled fly, it kicked me, saying that there was an IO error. Now, I stopped the server, brought it back up, stopped it again, deleted minecraft-server.jar, re-downloaded it, deleted craftbukkit.jar, re-download IT, and it still says a server is running when I try to run it. Any help?
Try restarting your PC/server completely. Sometimes crashes do funny things to your port settings. If at all possible, restart any router/modem you have as well, as that might also be the issue.
The process is still technically running and either ending the program through task manager ( assuming it is a windows host ) or restarting the computer will resolve the problem
Actually, seeing as it's a Linux OS, I could still see if I can figure out what the process for the server is, kill that, and that should kill all connected processes. Would anyone happen to know what the process would be?
Thank you for your replies. However, for some unknown reason, the server process killed itself. Thanks to all of you.
It happened again. However, I now know what the process is, and, no matter how many times I use pkill, it keeps running.
