MedicSN6 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 So i tried to set up a server on an extra PC I have. It ran fine but it was a Browser only version and I could only get it to work in 'god' mode where you just ceate stuff. It was not SMP (Survival Multiplayer) like I had wanted. Also, even after setting the server up, I could not enter it by IP on my main rig. I followed the guides on the wiki and on MC.net and this prior was all it yielded. I need to figure out how to set up a private server where we can connect by IP only. None of this browser public crap. Any thoughts or help are appreciated.

KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Ok, I have fallen to the depths in this super simple game.. I set up a server Medic, see if you can connect. Use this to connect to it: kalxen.homeip.net:2400 If that doesn't work, it may not take hostnames.. so do a nslookup on kalxen.homeip.net to get the IP of the day and connect via that instead. Also, let me know what your minecraft account name is so I can add you to the admin list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedicSN6 Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 no dice on the ip. tried both. 173.74.136.91 after the nslookup. I know that the port you used is not the standard port, so make sure you have it forwarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Ooops, dang, try again. I was only forwarding UDP not TCP on that port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Be back up in a second... Apparently Microsoft had an update and it rebooted my PC over night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 FYI - I am trying new command line options within Java to try to make the server run smoother, and also now running it via 64bit java. Let me know if you guys are running into issues. It seemed fairly smooth this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haloelite Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 is the server still down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 If it is down I'll bring it back when I'm home tonight. Out with family for the eve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Server was fine.. but apparently some of my network security coworkers decided to block the ports on me. Should be accessible now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Restarted the server... now that its running on 64bit java with extra parameters for memory management, server seems to be going very well. And the work on the large pyramid continues.. as such, it is temporary allowed to spawn TNT for the effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted January 2, 2011 Share Posted January 2, 2011 Server crashed hard, not sure why.. appears to be okay, but I saw 1 chunk error near Medic's place that is salvagable.. going to re-render the google map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Minecraft is causing my PC to crash hard.. Latest Beta version of the map appears to not be happy with me. And since this is also my main PC, I'm holding off on the server for the next few days while they may be able to work out the kinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilotboy~SPARTA~ Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I can run a concurrent server, for any of the people that want to run a backup server. E7200 CPU, 4 Gigs DDR2, Onboard Video and an ADSL2+ Connection should suffice Right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Medic asked about this today - there has not been an update to the server files by the minecraft.net website. I think that the reason the server is causing issues on my box is due to the size of the map now in memory. I'm sure that if the map world was smaller we'd be okay, but with it now a 80 megs its soaking up @ 2gig in memory and makes it more prone for memory bugs. I am going to see if there is an editor which will let me reduce the world size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I am setting up the server for a start over now. I am also going to remove op permissions, and set up everyone's default inventory with some base goodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KalXen~SPARTA~ Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Ok, server is back up. Its new, nobody is an op, but everyone starts off with a fairly hefty inventory - make it last. I also made the spawn point a large bedrock area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
