    Today, I used the guide on how to get a bukkit server to make one for myself. I believe I did every step correctly, but I do not know what I'm supposed to run or what executable thing I use. Here are some pictures I took: Screenshot (23).png This is a screenshot of my whole bukkit folder. Screenshot (24).png This is a screenshot of the inside of the work file that I found in the whole bukkit folder. The executable named "minecraft_server.1.12.2" opens a console and I am able to connect to it when it is opened from Minecraft. I also added a whitelist and ops text files. However, I'm not sure if this is the actual bukkit server, or just a plain vanilla Minecraft server. I also wanted to add a whitelist and ops to my bukkit server. Can someone please clarify what I need to run and if there's anything I forgot to do?

    @Enderburgery Copy the craftbukkit from the first image, put it in a folder (will contain everything about the server).
    Then add a run.bat to that folder and start it.

    Screenshot (25).png Screenshot (26).png Thanks for getting back to me fast. So I moved the craftbukkit folder into a new separate folder and created and added the run.bat. When I try to run the run.bat, I get an error. Did I do something wrong?

    This error said. "
    The system cannot find the path specified.
    Press any key to continue . . .". It came up in a cmd window.

    @Enderburgery You just needed to copy the craftbukkit.jar
    Outside the folder what has Buildtools in it.

    I think I got it. Is this right? I moved the jar to a new folder and accepted the eula. Screenshot (28).png

    Thanks for your help! Just to make sure, what in that folder should I open to start the server?
     
  10. make a new text file and type
    Code:
    java -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar
    PAUSE
    call it run.bat and save it as all file types...

    then double click run.bat (will be a batch file called run)

    server will run read the cmd box and set up the server!

    edit server.properties and ops as you please. i reccomend with notepad ++

    Change the "craftbukkit.jar" bit of the command to "craftbukkit-1.12.2.jar" (since that is what the file is named).
