    So i downloaded the newest bukkit patch yesterday and i was playing fine with my friends. Then today, i saw that my system memory was low, so i decided to delete some stuff, but i believe it was non important stuff like adobe reader and other large prtograms like that (other games and such) so that couldnt be the problem for this, but tonight, when i try to open my bukkit server, it gives me and error on the COMMAND PROMPT, saying : The system cannot find the patch certified. It just gives me that... doesnt say anything else... But the funny thing is, when i try to play my first server i made with the minecraft serfer software from the minecraft.net website, the server works perfecty fine. Any idea? :(

    Reinstall Java and make sure your craftbukkit jar is named correctly. (Compare it to the file you use to run the server)

    Actually, i just finished reinstalling java and nothing has seemed to happen... my Java file is named: craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT Should i name it something else? maybe just craftbukkit?

    I just have mine named cb.jar

    Just make sure your launch script has the right file name. Otherwise I dont see why it wouldnt be working if Vanilla works. And you could try re-downloading the Jar if it somehow corrupted.

    vanilla server works because it is an exe that knows how to find java

    Sounds like the path variable for java has been lost when you uninstalled something.

    post your launch bat file

    i use the batch file bukkit gives me, the one thats there when your downloading craftbukkit. : @Echo OFF
    SET BINDIR=%~dp0 CD /D "%BINDIR%" "%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xincgc -Xmx1G -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar PAUSE

    Crap... so i edited my path variable but i did it wrong... is there any way i can recover the origional?

    windows system restore and roll back a day.

    your path isn't the problem for your server not loading, since it's pointing directly to program files.

    When you reinstalled java did you install the 32-bit or 64-bit version?

    64-bit, seeing that my computr is 64 bit computer running windows 7 operating system.

    I just set it to "java" instead of the path for java.

    It sounds like your java install is very messed up.

    Uninstall all references to java in add/remove programs.

    Then fire up the 64-bit version of internet explorer (you can find it in the start menu) and go to java.com
    It should now show you a direct download option for the 64-bit version of java. Try installing it again.

    Pretend the previous 18 posts didn't happen and give exactly what is happening now. From the error message to your new config/run.bat files.
     
  16. are the errors the same, different?

    I get the same error: "The system cannot find the path specified"

    and in the Run.bat file i have the following inside: @ECHO OFF
    SET BINDIR=%~dp0 CD /D "%BINDIR%" "%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xincgc -Xmx1G -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar PAUSE

    and yes the errors are the same... im gana try to get a simple picture in here to show whats going on

    Your run.bat just doesn't look right being all on one line. Have you tried to just put:

    "%ProgramFiles%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xincgc -Xmx1G -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

    in there to see if it works?

    Try this just to see if it works:

    Code:
    @ECHO OFF
    TITLE MINECRAFT-CRAFTBUKKIT
    START "MINECRAFT-CRAFTBUKKIT" /ABOVENORMAL /B java -server -jar craftbukkit.jar nogui
    PAUSE
    
     
  20. uhm, what?!?

    I can't believe nobody has caught this yet.... You said you were running a 64-bit system correct? Then your path is wrong. It should be set to %ProgramFiles(x86)% ProgramFiles doesn't exist on a 64-bit system.

    So it should look like:
    Code:
    @ECHO OFF
    SET BINDIR=%~dp0
    CD /D "%BINDIR%"
    "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xincgc -Xmx1G -jar craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
    PAUSE
    Based on the error you are talking about, this should solve the issue.

    This means you AREN'T running the 64-bit install of java. Which you really should. Follow my earlier directions for downloading it and not only will your problem be solved, your server will run much better.[/CODE][/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT][/quote]

    Make sure you are getting Java with a 64 bit browser. 64 bit comps can also run 32 bit browsers so you have to be careful. If you have 32 bit internet explorer, you may have issues.
