Yeah, I figured it out! I just had to change the "..\Java\jre6\bin\.." to "..\Java\jre7\bin\.." and it worked. The if statement was there to begin with, I don't know why either. Thank you for your kindness!
No problem! Haha I'm not quite sure why you have jre7 though? That's still in beta and jre6 is still the recommended version. Odd haha.
just letting you know that you don't need the full directory of the java.exe file, you can just use "java" for example: PHP: @echo offjava -server -d64 -Xmn2048 -Xms4096M -Xmx8194M -jar "%~dp0craftbukkit-0.0.1-snapshot.jar"PAUSE adding the -server tag should also help give it a boost
You can only use "java" if you have added the java path to your Environmental Variables. Also this will be iffy if you have both 32 bit and 64 bit java installed. Also this is a guide for beginners, sure you can add -server but that's more detail that needs to be added. If anyone want more info about -server or any other performance options simply type -help or -X into the .bat file to learn more.
I don't want to seem antagonistic, so I'll apologize first incase. But, when you have two versions of java installed like me, both (32bit j6 and 64bit j7)java defaults to the newest one you install. It also automatically adds it's own program name to the env. variables, because I've never done it manually.
Some people have to install it manually for instance if they get a Beta version of JRE 7 or something. It's ok I'm not saying you're wrong I'm simply saying this is probably the best way to do it to ensure that it works properly.
What a silly, uninformed and completely superfluous statement. While running the actual server on a linux box, I use a Mac to test everything before it goes live on the real server. Simply do whatever you do on a Linux box. Never had any problems.
im getting an error "could not access jarfile craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT" im running a 1.0 server btw
thanks but instead i changed the craftbukkit file name to 123 and then i got more problems cause i had 32 bit java on 64 bit pc, but now i can allocate 7 gb of ram to my server
Try something like this Code: @Echo off "C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms1024M -Xmx6144M -jar craftbukkit-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar pause
@ECHO OFF IF /I "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE:~-2%"=="64" "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xincgc -Xmx4096M -jar "%~dp0craftbukkit-0.0.1-snapshot.jar" IF /I "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE:~-2%"=="86" java -Xincgc -Xmx4096M -jar "%~dp0craftbukkit-0.0.1-snapshot.jar" PAUSE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Its saying "invalid maximum heap size: -Xmx4096M" I have a 8GB 64bit computor and this worked for my server before but when I reset my server this ste back to 1024 and I tried setting it back to 4 GB but it just isnt working.
Go press Ctrl+Shift+Esc this will open up task manager. From there on go to Performance and see how much Physical Memory (MB) you have available. You might be running another ram intensive program that has taken it's share of allocated memory. Make sure the -Xmx4096M is not exceeding that. Also the incremental garbage collection might be cool and all but it's not necessary. You can try changing Xincgc just to Xms1024M. Also note that you CAN use 4G to mean 4GB.
You can try changing Xincgc just to Xms1024M.? Dosent that mean that this server will go back down to 1 GB? Cause there are to xmx's on my notepad. Wich one do I change the XMX to change the RAM? "Sorry imma nub at this"
Nice tutorial! Why is it better to use values like 2084M instead of e.g. 2150M ? For big linux servers this script is excellent: https://github.com/Ahtenus/minecraft-init
Holy upload speed... *bow* That's the only reason why I pay for dedicated hosting, because my upload speed is 2Mb/s ....
The instructions are great for someone who is using Ubuntu or Mint (very popular Debian-based Linux distributions) However, not all distributions install packages (in this case java) the same way. Other than that, it works fine for Debian based distros, but I would suggest putting a statement that it only works for certain distributions.
You don't have to get internet explorer 64bit! https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp Search your version in this list Use -xincgc or -xms128M or similar. Don't you ever dare to use -XMS1024M or higher values. That's only causing more unnecessary memory use. 64 bit computers that want to run 64 bit java: Use Program Files 64 bit computers that want to run 32 bit java: Use Program Files (x86) 32 bit computers that want to run 32 bit java: Use Program files Just to make shure everyone gets it right Note: If you run a home server, your upload speed will probably be a bottleneck
Thank you so much! I had a great server 9 months ago, but I forgot almost everything. Your guide is the only one that made sense! Thanks again.
I jumped through the hoops as well. Downloaded 64 bit internet explorer. Downloaded 64 bit Java with all the fixings. Got notepad++ and made a new .bat file and replaced the bukkit starter all together. I used the code that is in another thread. I changed the path in the starter to reflect my new install of java 7 , so in the path it now reads jre7. I also changed the path in my system to point towards the program files folder where jre7 is now stored. I also changed the snapshot.jar path as the one in the examples is a different build. mine is 1.0.1 . I run 8 gigs of ram on my computer so when I changed the Xmx and Xms I set the Xms to 1024M and the Xmx to 3072M so I could have 3 gigs on my server. I ran my new server.bat and it boots up just fine. However, I cannot see the changes that I have made. I have another custom .bat file for the single player and it works fine and I can actually see the memory allocation changes I have made my hitting f3 , the changes are visible in the upper right hand corner. This is not the case on my server. I hit f3 and I see the same information as when I started. Is that normal? shouldn't I see a change? I don't get any error messages when I run the server.bat. Like I said , it boots just fine.
Code: Unrecognized option: -d64 Could not create the Java virtual machine. Press any key to continue . . . ?
You probably don't have a 64bit operating system. If you are unsure go to Start<right click (computer)<properties Look for the System type. It should either say 64-bit or 32-bit Operating system. If you do have a 64bit system you also need to install 64bit java. Which you can find here. Good luck!
