Unable to access tekkit.jar

[Sumarek]

Hey guys,

I run a private server for around 10-12 people and we all voted to upgrade to tekkit since youtube and other sources gave it such good praise. Everything goes well until I run the bat file..

When I run the .bat file I get an error stating the .jar cannot be found.

Additional information:

Have java 1.7 installed and all classpaths set up.

I run the file as an administrator

The tekkit.jar file IS present

I will appreciate any help you guys can offer and hope this isn't an obvious problem. I did try a few things before starting this thread but to no avail...

Without specific details on what you did with the Tekkit 2.0 .zip file, what you moved over to the extracted zip, what order you changed things and upgraded your world etc. then it's going to be difficult to help you. :/

Sorry I overlooked those details, in short I extracted the zipped download into it's on unzipped folder and tried to run it like that. I didn't modify anything else.

I'm on a 32 bit version of windows 7

I don't think converting the map is a problem since the server doesn't even start up to begin with.

The batch file commands match up with the jar file name

I've been having similar trouble myself, extracted the tekkit.jar but getting a unable to access error.

I have had that problem every time I download tekkit and what I need to know is what your .bat file says and the name of your tekkit jar file (to find out what your .bat file says right click it and hit edit then just tell me what it says) I need bothe information to see if I can give you a hand with it

After Messing With the .bat File, I finally Got it Working.

java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar Tekkit.jar nogui.

That's because you're trying to run it from a shortcut, or perhaps pinned it to you start menu. You have to click on it in the same folder as tekkit.jar.
