Computer Crashing

Hi, I have been running a Bukkit server for about a month now, and its been great. But recently I have had a problem, when ever I start the server, It runs for maybe 10 minutes, Then my entire computer freezes. I have to do a hard shutdown to fix it. I do not know what the problem is. And it is REALLY annoying me. I appreciate anyone's help! Thank you!

Im about ready to my computer. 0_o

 

Your server has probably run out of memory, to fix this, all you need to do is move all your files out of your server file, except for craftbukkit.jar and run.bat, or whatever starts your server. Then make a new server starter with more memory in the coding, start it, stop it, delete all files except craftbukkit.jar and your server starter, move all your previous files back in, and start your server.
Of course, it could also be your plugins not cooperating with each other.

 

Ok, what is the code to add more memory! Thanks for the reply!

Oh and here are the plug-ins im using. Herochat, heroicdeath, magic carpet, world edit, world gaurd, logblock, simple save, essentials, super pickaxe, LWC, iConomy, Sign Colors, Simple Tips, and vanish. anything that can be conflicting?

There should be a number right before a g in the original server-starting code you put in to start your server, just change that number to make it bigger. As for your plugins, I think vanish is actually too old for the server, but that's the only one I think there could be a problem to.

 

I do not see a "g". But this is waht i have in the start server.bat

Code:

@echo off
java -server -Xmx1024M -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+CMSIncrementalPacing -XX:ParallelGCThreads=2 -XX:+AggressiveOpts -jar craftbukkit.jar nogui
pause

 

You need to change the numbers before the M (1024) to a bigger number. Those numbers mean your server can hold on gigabyte of RAM, which is why i told you to look for a g, because in my code it's one g for on gigabyte.

 

Ok well i increased the RAM, then I ran into this problem.

 

Ok, maybe you need to go back to your old server starter, and take out the vanish plugin.

 

Well I did uninstall all of my java, I was having problems. What java do I need to run the server?

 

Java 6 is what you need

 

Ok its working I think I got it! Thank you for your help

 

I recommend you get Java 1.7

 

this thingy?

http://jdk7.java.net/

 

Yes, that "thingy". Make sure you uninstall all previous version of Java

 

Ok Thanks

 

Isn't java 1.7 in beta?

 

Isn't minecraft in beta?

(btw I believe he meant 7)

 

ok nevermined, its back. As soon as someone joined my computer crashed. Any other ideas?

 

But minecraft beta was released to millions to buy, I was wondering about the possibility of getting java 7

Are you still using java 6?

no 7

 

You should go back to 6 and it should work, 7 might not be compatible with minecraft or bukkit. And you should delete the comment i'm quoting and, and edit the one you posted a few minutes ago before you get an infraction.

 

Ok Il try that now.

 

Tell me if it worked, hope it does.

 

Nope, nothing. Someone join, then two minutes later my computer crashed.

 

What computer do you use?

 

Like the specs, or the brand?

 

Just the computer itself, want to know if its able to hold the amount if information needed. Some computers are able to run servers for a while, but then just kind've stop after time.

 

Well its a gateway DX 4300-05. It has a AMD 2.7 GHz Athlon Dual Core Processor, 6 Gb DDR2 RAM. With windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Is that the info you want?

 

Yes, and your computer should be able to deal with a server fine, so I don't know how to help solve your problem at all anymore, sorry
If you don't solve your problem, you should have everyone on your server help pay for one to be set up.

 

Its ok, Thank you for your help though! I really appreciate it!

Anyone else have any Ideas? Bump?
