Making a server from a modpack:

[littlebixygames]

it doesnt work it just comes up with this anyideas

Java HotSpot 64-Bit Server VM warning: ignoring option PermSize=128m; suppor

t was removed in 8.0

Error: Could not find or load main class cauldron-1.6.4-1.965.21.174-server

Press any key to continue . . .

Don't use Java 8. Use the latest version of Java 7 for your platform.

right hold on this is what the cauldron server file is called 

cauldron-1.6.4-1.965.21.174-server

everytime i put that in the batch it just says error it cant find it anyideas 

[plowmanplow]

To my knowledge, this was the last build of Cauldron for 1.6.4 before the DMCA debacle: cauldron-1.6.4-1.965.21.185-server.jar

 

Please post the contents of your launcher script in a code tag and verify that the file/jar referenced by your command in the script is actually present. Keep in mind that you will need the libraries for that version of the Cauldron server since it does not automatically retrieve them. Cauldron 1.6.4 Libraries if you can't find the installer.

Error:could not find or load main class cauldron-1.6.4-1.965.21.174-server 

thats what it says and the file name of the jar is 

cauldron-1.6.4-1.965.21.174-server

have i missed something 

[plowmanplow]

Always make sure you alter your file explorer settings so that the file extensions are displayed. That will ensure that you don't have the extension duplicated.

 

When I said post your startup script in a code tag it should have looked similar to this:

@echo off

java -Xmx2048m -Xms2048m -XX:PermSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m -jar cauldron-1.6.4-1.965.21.174-server.jar nogui

Without seeing exactly what your script looks like, and precisely what the name of your jar file on the HD is, I can't really advise you. Did you use the installer for Cauldron, or do you just have the server JAR?
