    I run windows 7 x64.
    I'm using java version "1.7.0"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0-b147)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 21.0-b17, mixed mode)
    I'm not running any wrappers.
    I have been using a recommended build for 1.5.2 and currently am using 1.6.2 build 2810 and the same issue occurs.
    I have had plugins but currently am not using any so they are not the issue.

    The log is that of a fresh server opened with a batch file.
    The batch is simply
    Echo off
    "C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xms5120M -Xmx5120M -jar craftbukkit-1.6.2-R0.1.jar
    pause


    The issue is I am unable to have anyone enter my server. I have had servers and have been hosting for awhile and now I'm stumped. I can host a plain MC server and http://ping.eu/port-chk/ per se would say the port is open. However, when I use Bukkit, it says the port is closed. I can still enter with localhost as usual. Any ideas are welcome (I have had this issue for weeks now)

    Found this post http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/people-cant-connect-to-server-this-isnt-your-average-fix.159032/ Didn't seem to fix the issue.

    This is the server's property files if anyone is curious, it's just the default one when you host it.

    Lunthus Is anything appearing in your server.log? :) (please paste it)

    DevSever ...why are you here then? This forum is for support in setting up Bukkit servers, so it isn't really the place to be discouraging people to use Bukkit.

    The Server.log is empty, this is a server that is literally grabbing it, putting the jar into a folder, renaming the jar to craftbukkit-1.6.2-R0.1, then executing that batch as a brand new file. I've done this several times and nothing works :/

    Hosting content is very easy actually and is pretty damn fun for me. I have been doing it for a while. It's kinda off to discourage server hosting when this entire website revolves around programs to literally host servers. I don't think I'll stay out of hosting.

    Just because your port is open doesn't mean its free. Check what's using the port with Netstat

    The port is free, it has no problem binding to the port. When I use regular MC using a port of 25565, the server lets everyone in. The second I use bukkit instead, it doesn't let anyone in.

    Have you tried disabling the Windoze firewall (or any other software-based firewall)? When you originally set up a regular Minecraft server, it's possible that you might have allowed connections to it through the firewall, but Bukkit may still be blocked.

    Windows Firewall or other firewall can accept if you have access for it

    Thanks, I honestly can't believe it was simply the firewall's connection. I feel kinda dumb because of a simple firewall halting connection. I seriously have no clue though how it started to block Bukkit for no reason, however.

    Glad to hear you were able to get it working!
