are there errors in the server window.

it may have updated or just decided for no apparent reason. so is it working now?

i wouldn't be surprised if its norton interfering. if you have java 1.7 installed and working and you click on the launch file. it should just work. the try disabling windows firewall and norton. its the ***FAILED TO BIND TO PORT! error

what kind of antivirus or firewall software are you running? are you using launch file to run it?

the poweredge 2950 is not made anymore however it is still a powerful machine. the only thing is its a rack mount http://www.ebay.com/itm/DELL-POWEREDGE-2950-GEN2-2-X-DUAL-CORE-3-0GHZ-4GB-73GB-10K-COMBO-PERC5-DRAC5-/170887823590?pt=COMP_EN_Servers&hash=item27c9b540e6#ht_1476wt_985 then you may want http://www.ebay.com/itm/370632768976?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_1572wt_985 it handles whatever i throw at it wile running 4 additional windows installations in hyperv. you can put regular sata drives in it if you want more space.

what version of windows are you running this on? is it rented from a host?

use task manager kill any programs with java as the name if you just double click the tekkit.jar it will run in the background with out telling you.

looked like wrong java version

is this going to be running out of a house? im not a fan of the price on that server. its alot for not that much. i bought a dell poweredge 2950 last year for about 300. 2 dual core xeons at 2.4 ghz. 3 73 gb 10k sas drives and 4gb of ram. which i updated to 12gb for about $40 on ebay. i would shop around alittle more try to get the best hardware for the lowest price.

are you getting java errors? what happened?

make sure you have java 7 http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-7u4-downloads-1591156.html use textedit and make a file named start.command with the following #!/bin/sh cd "$(dirname "$0")" exec /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.7.0.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -Xmx3G -Xms2G -jar Tekkit.jar nogui open your terminal and run chmod a+x and drag start.command into terminal. then hit enter. if you havent already move the start.command file you created and put it in with your tekkit server folder. it should work. im not a heavy mac user more of a linux guy. let me know if it doesn't work.

are you running java 7? it doesn't work with 6.

add a " before the C:\program files. if its not in quotes like "C:\program files" it will read c:\program and assume program is an executable. it should be "C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\java" -Xmx3G -Xms2G -jar Tekkit.jar nogui let me know how that works

Re: Tekkit in new launcher, no server files? 8) to cool for words

send them on floppy disks!

i haven't used tekkit in a wile but if you set up a bukkit server and then dump the tekkit files into the minecraft folder and rename tekkit.jar to craftbukkit.jar it should work. you might need to copy the plugin mcma_compat to allow the mcmyadmin to know the server started.
