How to disable server console?

I used to be able to run minecraft in the background like so (Linux):

Code:

nohup java -Xincgc -Xmx1G -jar minecraft-server.jar &

But now when I do this, it just spits out ">>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>" endlessly, filling up the nohup file. It also eats up CPU like nobody's business.

Can anyone suggest a simple solution to this? I think it is looking for an input and constantly spitting out that prompt caret.

 

in your batch file, try replacing java with javaw and delete where it has PAUSE

 

I run a Ubuntu server, where I have the 'java -Xincgc -Xmx1G -jar minecraft-server.jar' in a sh file and I nohup the sh.

 

Bump!
I also have this problem on my linux server. I would love to know a good resolve for it. I suspect the ">" is some part of the code trying to put a prompt up and not having a console to do it in. Perhaps a bug?

 

Code:

@echo off
java -Xincgc -Xmx1G -jar minecraft-server.jar nogui
