How do I set up a Tekkit server on a ubuntu server?


Recommended Posts

So I'm a total noob at this stuff, but I just got a fresh Ubuntu Server and my first problem is installing java on it god I feel dumb. Even if I get that I don't know how to run the actual server from my Laptop. Any help would be nice :)

One thing I did manage to do was set up WinSCP and get all the files from the download onto the server.

Works on Debian Distros, Ubuntu, Mint etc...

Open Terminal

type: sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre openjdk-6-jre

type: sudo update-alternatives --config java

-Choose the Java7 Option.(3 on mine)

type: cd [folder where tekkit.jar is located]

type: java -Xmx3G -Xms2G -jar Tekkit.jar nogui

-Change 3G/2G to how much ram you want to dedicate to your tekkit server.

That was fixed in 2.1.1

Nope, not entirely.

Computercraft needs to be extracted to a new folder (to get it working) and when you do that, it turns bundled cables functionality off because it changes load-order of the mod. The fix I came up with (which seems to be working btw) is to have two Computercraft folders - with same name, just one with uppercase C and one with lower.

Ah. I never ran into that issue myself. (I don't use computercraft :D)
