Server is not working on Server Box

Title: Server is not working on Server Box

Version: 3.1.2

OS: Windows Server 2003 (?)

Java Version: 7

Description of Problem:

I ran a test server of tekkit 3.1.2 locally, worked fine via localhost. HOWEVER, when I move the files to the Server Box I am using, it does several different things. A) It first hung on Railcraft. I deleted Railcraft. Then it showed as booting, but I could not once get it to show up in the Server Browser, nor could I Direct Connect to it. I did add the IP to the server.properties file, and the ports are forwarded correctly. Now I've reinstalled tekkit, and I'm getting nothing. No start up at all. This is starting to frustrate me, as I haven't had these issues on ANY of the other Bukkit/Vanilla servers I currently run. This seems limited to tekkit. I've searched online, and can't seem to find this specific problem.

Delete everything and restart. It could be anything. The port the fact you did not install tekkit correctly because tekkit needs to install in a certain way. I would look up some vid's on it and i think there is a post on the [op] section on the technic forums about this. If all else fails just use minecraft or join one their are enough servers out their to choose.

Also, never ever add the IP address to server.properites

I am trying to set the server up for a gaming community. Tekkit still refuses to work, even when using the Root IP of the server box. I'm very disappointed that it STILL will not function correctly. There SHOULD be a way to force the IP, if it's based on bukkit. I have NEVER had this sort of problem before. I've always set the IP in the server.properties file, becuse I have a block assigned to use for Minecraft related servers. I'm getting really tired of doing exactly what you stated above, deleting and restarting from scratch, and getting no results. I can start it, get all the files to generate, but I cannot get INTO the server because I can't set the IP.

You don't need to set the IP. It will happily bind to all the interfaces on the server. The _only_ time you need to put an IP in the server properties file is if your server has multiple network cards and you don't want tekkit/bukkit available on one of them, and even then a firewall is a better option
