[ADMIN] MC Server GUI .9.7 (cross-platform) - A GUI wrapper for your server (now w/in-game cmds)

Work good for me but not the info for CPU usage and others. (with two ways)
And when i launch by guilauncher.bat , a CMD appears with the GUI.

Post your guiconfig.json file on www.pastebin.com

In order to get the CPU/Network Usage you need to launch it from the guilauncher.bat. The CMD window that opens can be closed once the gui launches. On the Main Window tab there is a check box down below on the right side, you have to check this box to get the CPU/Network info.

Displaying the CPU/Network usage adds a little more usage to the CPU, so it is best to use it to check your usage for a short period of time and then uncheck the box until you want to check usage again. This reduces the amount of usage on the CPU.

@Multivan could you edit guilauncher.bat and change it from javaw to java? Then when it starts up, leave the console window open and it should tell you about any errors that are happening. Let me know what, if any, it's having.

Only Network Usage causes increased CPU load. That's why the checkbox is for Network Usage only.

My error about CPU usage. I wasn't looking at the GUI and quoted CPU usage when it should have only been Network usage. Next time I'll look before opening my big mouth

Updated to .6.0. Addressed some of the things you guys asked about and of course, added a player list. And hey, it's quite reliable!

Cheere mate will install it soon.

@dumptruckman:
Fantastic application (even though I'm not currently using it - I'm using the Windows version at the moment until this JAR provides the same functionality).

I do have a question: ItemCraft requires you to use -cp with java to run the itemcraft JAR before the craftbukkit JAR. Any chance you could include that functionality so people can use this with ItemCraft?
(or perhaps let me know how I run it using this JAR?)

MC Server GUI will launch without starting the server so you will be able to set server specific launch commands. Under the Server GUI Tab there is a check box for custom launch configurations. (At the moment it is experimental.) You would tick the check box and enter your custom launch line. @dumptruckman added this feature just for those who had to run server specific launch profiles for their servers. Once you have entered your command line, go back to the main tab and click start.

So, as of this new version (.6.0) the only features this is missing vs the Windows version is the extra server control buttons, like warn stop, restart, etc and the ability to right click ban players. This version has pretty much everything else and in almost every case it is implemented in a much better way. (The extra server control and ban options will be coming very soon.)
And like BigRenegade said, there is a custom launch option where you are able to completely configure the line your server launches with. This option should work with anything that doesn't require an additional run line. (Like MCSOD)

edit: okay, missing the starts server on gui start and minimize to system tray options as well.

Now that the new version has the proxy capability, would it be possible to add in the functionality to remotely access the console? I'd like to be able to ssh or telnet into the console so I can remotely do things.

This may be a possibility... I had actually planned on offering a php script that you could add to a website where you could basically have a web interface... Unfortunately I planned this with a very very unreliable person who has, as far as I know, done absolutely nothing in the way of producing this. =/ I'm still going to try and work it out however, at least offer telnet or something.

Oh, just a thought on server.log backup. is it possible to have it empty the server.log when its backed up? As it is the server.log is constantly growing.

Ahh, yes, I will add this feature in.

Even telnet would be awesome. I want to be able to connect, chat, reload, or restart the server as necessary.

Anyone who doesn't use this GUI is a fool. I remember when this was first launched and it was great back then, and now its absolutely phenomenal. It's professional. All you need to do is add custom skins.

Hah, thanks! Man.. Custom skins.. I can't even imagine how to go about that.

You don't have to. It was more of an idea than a request, but if you're one of those types of programmers that want to challenge themselves then you should try it.

I mean, it sounds like something great to add post 1.0. I'll put it on the todo list, but I'm not sure when it'll get done.

Is this going to happen anytime soon?

Which part? Techincally, I've done all of these things. I had added a guide into the readme but forgot to put a direct link to that in the OP (which I just now added). The All button no longer changes the text to "None" and instead if simply selected or deselected. In the latest version (.6.0) it has a box showing a summary of the timing for your event to make things even more clear.

@mattekure
Just released .6.1. It now has the option to clear your server.log on backups, you can find this on the backup tab. I've also started working on adding a tcp json interface. My idea is to use php to send json to the server to send commands and receive updates, however, since it is json you could likely build an interface in any language you please.

Nice man real nice Updating now.

Yes, indeed it was referring to the guide. Thank you.

Player list is now show for me on 6.1 or what ever new version is but /list in console works to lookup correctly online players now.

Wait, the player list doesn't work for you? Are you using the proxy server? Are people connecting to the proxy server port and not the port in the server properties?

I hate to sound like a dunce but it's been one of those weeks. Would someone mind PMing me a nutshell summary of what I'd need to add to the custom launch that would allow me to run ItemCraft?

Well, i've never used item craft before but from looking at the page for it, you need something like this:

Code:

java -Xmx1024M -Xincgc -Djline.terminal=jline.UnsupportedTerminal -cp ItemCraft.jar;craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar org.bukkit.craftbukkit.Main -d "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"

Make sure to DESELECT the bukkit option as this tries to add some extra stuff into the custom launch line but it bases it on the "-jar" line which is not present when you use itemcraft. Also, make sure to change your Xmx memory to what you prefer. Let me know if this works because I have no idea if it will or not.

edit: the -Djline.terminal=jline.UnsupportedTerminal part is very important for my GUI to function with bukkit, so don't take that out. However, I'm not sure how itemcraft launches, so if that doesn't work, you can try leaving it out.

Okay ... it works to a point:

This is the command line I'm using:

Code:

java -Djline.terminal=jline.UnsupportedTerminal -Xmx1524M -Xincgc -cp ItemCraft.jar;craftbukkit_b860_IC.jar org.bukkit.craftbukkit.Main nogui -d "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss" 

The server starts and my log file looks okay. But when I attempt to connect, I get a black screen in my client after "Downloading Terrain" and the following error in my server.log:

Code:

Even bypassing the proxy doesn't resolve it. Without the ItemCraft JAR involved, my client is connecting fine.
I guess my users will have to do without fancy sloped blocks for the time being
