[TOOL/ADMIN] Bukkit Server GUI v1.1.4544 - A (.NET) GUI for the Bukkit Server

Ok, before you read this: I havent read all comments here, so there might be duplicates. I just started using it: It's awesome, however, there are a couple of things id like to tell you:

1) This needs REALLY much CPU... you really have to do something about that! And for some reason on my computer it always! takes around 50%
2) The colors in chat are shifted one character to the left, so for example the last char of the time is green/blue/whatever
3) It would be great if you could shorten the error messages, most people don't read it anyways and normally i know what it is...
4) To make it look better: Is there a possibility to select the panels you need (for example I really dont need the plugins panel, but others might), if not, can you make it so that only the log panel refreshes that often? I mean the worlds and plugins dont really need to refresh every second... Maybe you could even add a refresh button...
5) The names are shown twice, once as the display name and once as the name bukkit sends to the chat. Maybe you just remove the first one, then it's fine

That's it so far, I hope you can do something about the ressources it needs ;-)

PS.: I'm German, too There are many more Germans than you think!

EDIT: Resizing of the panels would be nice, too, but not necessary
EDIT2: Maybe it should just not check the events on the server as long as it is in tray if that's possible, I guess that would reduce CPU usage way more than everything else.
Tell me if I'm wrong, I don't know much about the inside of programs ;-) (yet)
However, I know that it's much work (I started with java recently) and I really appreciate what you're doing! Just: keep it up! It's awesome

It cant access c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\plugin.yml which is not existing

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

@minecraftYord

Well, thanks fpr the latest failure descriptions.

-Currently im working on the scrollbar problem, that is very hard to get rid of, because the ms scrollbar sucks, as well as the scrollbar from the richtext control.

-The color bug will be finally solved in the next version. I have tested several times and its fine by now i think.

-I cant shorten the error messages, but im thinking about an option to surpress them by will.

-The selection of the panels are a greeat idea, and i will stop the cpu usage of them if they arent be showed too (this includes the tray thing).

-Im thinking about a customizable refresh time for the different plugin actions (worlds, users, plugins), and yes, i can add a refresh button too.

-The name thingy that the names are shown twice are new, and should be filtered in the next version.

-Resizing is quite time expensive free scalable forms are difficult to code .

Thanks for the sugar even a programmer needs that from time to time.


@aolko

Have you tried to start the application with admin rights?
When did this error happen?
Do you have a plugin folder in your minecraft server folder at all? does it hold some or at least one plugin?
Does it hold other files that arent real plugins?

by shortening the error messages i mean what pail does (i think its the first line they show)

yes
every time i start a server
./bukkitdir/plugins yes
No

So, next release 1.1.4372 is available. I have fixed a lot of things, and added some features.

Please test it and tell me what you think, and report to me if you got an error. As always, i will do my best to get rid of it

Due to a bug within the process priority, ive released a new version with some more extras.. the priority can now be choosed manually too.

this is a great GUI, simple and easy to use but not easy to setup. how would i set this up to work with a lan server?

for example the pc im on now is my Development and gaming rig. i have another pc thats on 192.168.1.18 that controls ALL server related activitities. How do i use this GUI to control the server from my game & dev rig?

The GUI is not administering the bukkit remotely, so you need to have the gui running on the same system where your bukkit is held. BUT, you can use the webinterface of the gui to administer the tool from your control pc.

hi, i really like this gui. i used it for an long time now. recently i found out that you can remotely access your gui. enabled the option, have my bukkit running on port 3000, works, port forwarded 25565 too so i put the remote control on 25565. works on my computer, using google chrome, tried it in school, google chrome, i tried it via teamviewer with my frend, internet explorer, wont work. do you know what can be the problem? internet explorer?

EDIT: tried it on my computer with internet explorer, wont work. what is my problem?

Hi, seems like a really good program , but i'm having trouble . I keep getting this message:

the system cant find that file. try to redownload everything, i think it will work

Thanks that after this long term of "not updating the gui" some people still using it .

Of what kind is the problem?. Does the IE wont display the GUI correctly, or does it actually cant connect to the server? (Consider the wan/lan ip when connecting.. dont use your own wan ip on your local lan.)

On the first issue i can work to make it browser compatible, but
if you experiencing the second issue, it should work with every browser/tool where you can specify ip/port.

----------------------------------------
@rity177 : copyyou is right. The original rar package should have the "ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib" included in the root directory.

thanks for replying!!!
(i think IE = internet explorer???)

its IE that cant connect to the server, but google chrome can.
google chrome can on my computer, internet explorer cant.
google chrome can on another computer(and another network) but cant on IE(this is another computer than the previous.)
so, its IE i think.
and also, what does wan and lan ip mean? i suppose you mean my whatismyip.org ip? i tried it with both localhost:25565 and copysserver.zapto.org:255654 and myip:25565 on both google chrome and IE. again, google chrome works on them all, IE never.

yes, with IE i mean (internet explorer)

If its an IE connection problem, then i cant help you very much within changing my code. .

But maybe i can help you to track the error.

Does both pcs have some firewall issues?
Does the security settings in the IE maybe block other ports than standard http/https ? (80,8080,443);

Can you connect to other sites within the IE ? .. if yes, then try to set the GUI webinterface to port 80, and connect with IE then. If this works, then the IE itself or a firewall is blocking other ports expect standard web ports in conjunction to IE.

IE works for me. Also on higher ports.. im using 33680 with no problems in IE/Firefox.

i tried very shortly now, will test out more tommorow. looks like port 80 is already taken i think. also, when i use localhost it searches localhost on google... thats kinda fail...

Are you using Skype? .. skype often catches the port 80 win7 also have a service running on port 80 depending on configuration.

take 21 or 443 instead, IE yould be able to handle ftp or ssl as well.

if your localhost doesnt work, then maybe you need to check your hosts file, or just use 127.0.0.1

yes im using skype indeed. so i use 443? ill look into it.

Hi Kanshunin,

I just found out of thie bukkit GUI while searching the bukkit foruns.
I wonder why you dont have this in plugins area since there is not a tools area.

I installed this at school on the shitiest computer I can reach at the momment. Its a pentium 4 running at 3.6Ghz and 2Gb of memory.

I didnt saw any CPU usage from the GUI. The main aplication is pretty awesome and will make life a lot easier.

The reason Im replying is for a feature request which I think it will be very very easy to implement. On back-up I notice that it doesnt back-up the plugins folder and doesnt seem to give that option.

Since nowadays a lot of info is stored in the plugins folder (plugins like AdminCmd and some economy plugins).

So if you could add that option would be awesome. And if you can define a diferent interval for the plugin folder back-up would be perfect.

Thanks a lot for the tool so far, too bad people dont know more about it.
Ralm.

@copyyou you have pm

@Ralm
Thank you for using my GUI .

I will consider this plugin feature. I havent done much recently due to less response and feature requests.. and actually, because of my RL job. .. why cant somebody just send some million dollars

Dont hesitate to advertise my tool *g*

Hey, nice GUI, I like it, I hope to see an update on the Internet browser, like a way to let you know the PW/Username is entered in wrong.

Other then that, no real complaints from me, I think I shall donate on my next Pay Day for your great work

Thanks.

Currently im working on the backup changes @Ralm suggested and some fixes within the log window.. But the webiterface will also have new features in the new version.

BTW. im still waiting for someone who make a new webinterface for me.. someone with better graphic and js/css skills than me ..

Anyway you could direct message me, I don't know if you've blocked it or what but I would like to send you some stuff if your cool with it

Sure you have PM.

This GUI is still great! Just one bug in this version. The player's name in chat is not shown. Basically leaves me guessing as to who is saying what.

Edit: seems like the chat-only log is broken too.

I really like the GUI and its FREE web interace

But the web interface needs an overhaul/redesign, so I started working on a better web interace
Here's a screenshot of my current (Phase I: Design) work.



Edit: Design should be finished

No I should be finished, creating a better version of the web UI.


How to install: Replace index.html in BukkitServerGUI/webserver with the download index.html
Download

I'm currently improving the Web Interface (working on v.2.0)

Here you can download v2.0 alpha 1 (Note: Not finished, but already useable)
Download

Changes:

• Added menus to keep everything simple
• Added a player manager (wraps around the console commands)
• Plugin manager
• Better design
• Backup manager

Works on mc v.1.2.3?

Yes. It's running very nice on our root server (now with the newest beta build)

If you want to use my web interface, you have to replace the index.html in the webserver folder with the downloaded one.
