    alright i figured it out :p
    go to notepad and type in
    @echo off
    "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar nogui


    name the file whatever but make sure its a .bat file

    and run that .bat to run the server, it should work.

    Hi, I'm on a Mac OSX and when I try to open the command It gives me the message... "The file “Mac OS X CraftBukkit Setup.command” could not be executed because you do not have appropriate access privileges. To view or change access privileges, select the file in the Finder and choose File > Get Info."

    I have changed the permissions and everything, and I am admin on my computer, but I still cannot run it.
    If you have the answer, please tell :D

    Thanks in advance.

    1. Start up Terminal
    2. Type "chmod +x " (notice the extra space at the end)
    3. Drag the .command file onto the Terminal window
    4. Hit enter
    You should now be able to run it. Didn't I include a README or something with that? If not, I should. lol

    Ok, try this instead: "sudo chmod +x " (drag file) (hit enter) (type password when it asks)

    Are you sure that's in the right order? Because when I type sudo chmod +x it asks for a password, and I gave it the password THEN put the file in and hit enter but it still did not work.

    No, type "sudo chmod +x " but don't hit enter yet. Now drag the .command file onto the Terminal window. You'll see have something like this waiting in Terminal:
    Code:
    sudo chmod +x /Users/sunlis/Desktop/Mac OS X CraftBukkit Setup.command
    Now hit enter. It will ask for your password; type it in and hit enter.

    NB: When you are typing your password, it won't show any characters or give any other indication that it knows that you're typing, so just make sure you type it correctly.

    Help!
    I set up my bukkit server, no problems at all
    But yesterday, the launchserver.command in terminal stayed blank, the server still works, but i need the console!
    I had (before the problem) downloaded bunchs of plugins, and after the problem deleted them
    I use a mac.
    Help please?

    Could you download this file: LaunchServer.command
    And use that one instead?
    You will have to make it executable: open Terminal, type:
    Code:
    chmod +x [drag file here]
    And press enter. Don't forget the space after "+x".

    If that doesn't solve the problem, tell me, I'll look into it. :)

    The search seems to be broken so sorry if this has already been posted. When I run the RUN.bat that the guide tells me to, I get this message:
    "The system cannot find the path specified
    Press any key to continue . . ." and pressing a key closes it. (I don't know what version of Java I have, I thought it was Java 7 so I tried the thing for that)

    When I paste the other thing into the RUN.bat file, I get:
    "Unable to access jarfile craftbukkit.jar
    Press any key to continue . . ." and pressing a key still closes it. What do I do to fix this so I can run Runecraft?
