Cavernace Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Im haivng problems setting up a server on a mac, and was wondering if anyone could explain steps to me if they have had experience on a map. And yes, Torezu, I know, i should have read the directions or whatever. Just please dont comment telling me to do so, I've done it, and I cant find any help. Thanks!
Torezu Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 And yes, Torezu, I know, i should have read the directions or whatever. Why would I tell you that? There's no Mac tutorial.

Thanks! ok.... explain the "problems" you've been having and your steps you've gone thru to attempt to setup the server
wesim Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 is there a guide for setting up a tekkit server for mac? i cant seem to find it.
JohnScarlet Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Making a server on a Mac is almost as easy as making one on windows, only instead of using the launch.bat file in the server folder you have to launch the server using terminal. If you don't know what that is then you're better off just looking for "how to make tekkit server mac" tutorial on YouTube. There are always plenty of those.
nicko6113 Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 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 "$0")" exec /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.7.0.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -Xmx3G -Xms2G -jar Tekkit.jar nogui open your terminal and run chmod a+x and drag start.command into terminal. then hit enter. if you havent already move the start.command file you created and put it in with your tekkit server folder. it should work. im not a heavy mac user more of a linux guy. let me know if it doesn't work.
blankrobot1 Posted August 16, 2012 Posted August 16, 2012 I tried doing that, btw thank you for taking the time, but it just keeps saying something things in the terminal saying ive dont have permission e.g. chmod a+x usage:chmod [-fhv] [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-a | +a | =a [# [ n]]] mode|entry file ... chmod [-fhv] [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-E | -C | -N | -i | -I] file ... MacBook-Pro:~ ldpink$ /Users/ldpink/Desktop/Tekkit_Server_3/start.command -bash: /Users/ldpink/Desktop/Tekkit_Server_3/start.command: Permission denied
JohnScarlet Posted August 19, 2012 Posted August 19, 2012 If you want to launch the server and don't mind typing in terminal to do so, then just write: cd Desktop/Tekkit_Server_3 java -Xmx2G -Xms2G -jar Tekkit.jar nogui
S3NL4C Posted August 26, 2012 Posted August 26, 2012 I tried doing that, btw thank you for taking the time, but it just keeps saying something things in the terminal saying ive dont have permission e.g. chmod a+x usage:chmod [-fhv] [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-a | +a | =a [# [ n]]] mode|entry file ... chmod [-fhv] [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-E | -C | -N | -i | -I] file ... MacBook-Pro:~ ldpink$ /Users/ldpink/Desktop/Tekkit_Server_3/start.command -bash: /Users/ldpink/Desktop/Tekkit_Server_3/start.command: Permission denied do it like this then: sudo chmod a+x ldpink$ /Users/ldpink/Desktop/Tekkit_Server_3/start.com ypu will be asked for your root password, which if its your computer is probably nothing or "password"
S3NL4C Posted August 26, 2012 Posted August 26, 2012 actually scratch that the password will be "admin"
PatriotBob Posted August 27, 2012 Posted August 27, 2012 I'm seeing a swarm of these threads pop up of late. Can some one explain to me the sudden desire to host servers on these things? Are they just trying to make use of hardware that would other wise be a expensive paper weight or what?
timmeeehhhhh Posted December 4, 2012 Posted December 4, 2012 what if im trying to host a server on a mac but every time i click start.command to start the server it says this one unknown host thing
zyion Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 i can start the server and play on it on the same network, like lan servers do, but i cant make it public to everybody.

MacBook-Pro:~ ldpink$ /Users/ldpink/Desktop/Tekkit_Server_3/start.command -bash: /Users/ldpink/Desktop/Tekkit_Server_3/start.command: Permission denied it says permission denied because you need to re download the server file and get a fresh start, it did that to me too
