The server is running with 8GB of RAM. I'll post my plugin list if it's necessary, but I don't think it is in this scenario. Any help is appreciated. Also, if it matters, I'm using Minecraft Remote Toolkit, but I also tried it with my other startup script, and it gave me the same error. This is my other startup script: Code: cd ~/Desktop/MagnaCraft java -Xincgc -Xmx8192M -jar CraftBukkit++.jar EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
I could try running the server without any plugins. BRB with results. It starts without plugins, but I still get some sort of error message: Code: 174 recipes 27 achievements 20:18:58 [INFO] Starting minecraft server version 1.1 20:18:58 [INFO] Loading properties 20:18:58 [INFO] Starting Minecraft server on *:25565 20:18:59 [INFO] This server is running CraftBukkit version git-Bukkit-1.1-R6-b1988jnks (MC: 1.1) (Implementing API version 1.1-R6) 20:18:59 [INFO] Preparing level "world" 20:18:59 [INFO] Default game type: 0 20:18:59 [INFO] Preparing start region for level 0 (Seed: 8154667595753417486) 20:18:59 [WARNING] Could not get current artifact information; perhaps you are running a custom version?: IOException 20:18:59 [WARNING] Could not get latest artifact information: IOException 20:19:00 [INFO] Preparing start region for level 1 (Seed: -8422159404217536164) 20:19:00 [INFO] Preparing spawn area: 52% 20:19:00 [INFO] Preparing start region for level 2 (Seed: -8196673629375308037) 20:19:00 [INFO] Server permissions file permissions.yml is empty, ignoring it 20:19:00 [INFO] Done (1.603s)! For help, type "help" or "? I tried running it again with all plugins updated through CraftBukkitUpToDate. Still getting the initial error message. EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
CraftBukkitUpToDate is, out of date because of ci.bukkit.org going down. You will have to manually update all of your plugins. Another option is to take off all of your plugins and add them one by one to see who is the culprit.
You can check the BukkitDev post to see if it's up to date, but you might be lazy like me and not want to click the buttons to get there.
Do you have LogBlockQuestioner? If you do take it off, once I took that off my server was able to start up... but still some of my plugins have been outdated.
That error is because (I think) in the plugin.yml, 'commands: ' is empty. So all plugins that do not have commands get this error.
I started a new server, only the craftbukkit and the run.bat and started it. I still got Could not get current artifact information; perhaps you are running a custom version?: FileNotFoundException and could not connect to the server.
Here it is again. It's really hard to tell what plugin is causing this from the error.
