Launcher.bat not generating additional files

[Bukky]

Title: Launcher.bat not generating additional files

Version: 3.1.2

OS: Windows 64 bit

Java Version: 7 update 7

Description of Problem:

When I try to start a new server with the launch.bat file, the server launches and works (I can log in and such) but it does not generate any of the world files, or any of the additional files such as the server.properties inside the folder. I just reinstalled java and I'm not sure what else to try. double clicking Tekkit.jar generates the files but then creates some ghost server that I don't know how to turn off because there's no gui.

Where the heck is the world and server.properties files that the .bat file is using somewhere?

Ty for help in advance

That is a really strange problem, I do not know how to fix your issue but I might have a way for you to find out where it is storing the files.

Download a program called "Handle" from here, it is a command line tool. You have to run it from an elevated command prompt (right-click, run as administrator) and you have to navigate to the folder that you extract Handle to in the command prompt. Then type the following:

handle > out.txt

Open the new file in Notepad or similar and search for Java. I got the following:

This shows where the files are, which should show on your system too since you can log into the server.

I don't get a GUI when I start the server with the Jar file either, so I think that is normal. You can kill it with Task Manager though, look for "Java" if you start it with the batch file and "Javaw" if you start it with the Jar file.

Hopefully someone else comes by with the answer but let me know if this is of any use to you.

Where the heck is the world and server.properties files that the .bat file is using somewhere?

If you can log in, it's putting the files somewhere. That somewhere is usually wherever your Tekkit.jar is located, but it may be where your launch.bat is located if they're in different places. A server can't run without a properties file, among other things. Do the mods work?
