MrKekson Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 not really tekkit related, but if your running it on your pc, make shure thet you stopped the prevoius server properly, try to kill all java tasks if you on a rented host, contact support, you mignt user the default port witch could be occupied, chk your maild then to see what port are you should be on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djinnii Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 This happens alot on rented servers when you try starting your server process before it's been properly stopped. The fix is pretty simple as MrKekson says: Just kill the java process and try and start again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastashon Posted November 6, 2012 Author Share Posted November 6, 2012 the server isn't rented, and closing java process just stoped the server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrKekson Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 yupp, but it's also clear up previouslei left open ports, then something different is running there, what port are we walking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djinnii Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 the server isn't rented, and closing java process just stoped the server Stopping the server is the idea. Once the process is killed and the server is actually stopped, the port should now be closed and you can start the server normally again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devastashon Posted November 7, 2012 Author Share Posted November 7, 2012 stoping the server didn't work and the port is just the normal minecraft port,25565 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djinnii Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Then you already have another program/process using that port. Try running MC on port 25566 Or just pick a random one between 25500 and 65000 (My port range might be a little off, it's been a while since I had to worry about what the lower bound and upper bound user defined port ranges are.)

MrKekson Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 or get a proper firewall, and see what is taking that port, also a bastebin of your log would be nice, its maybe some plugin trying to use the same port, and crash your startup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epicnicodemus Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Probably because you just closed your console without stopping the server. Have you tried turning your computer on and off? (Restart it...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krizmac Posted November 8, 2012 Share Posted November 8, 2012 Hit CTRL+ALT+DEL. Slide over to the Processes Tab. Stop anything that is Java*.exe, AND mysql*.* (the mySQL one is the one that people always miss). Restart Computer. Restart Server. Enjoy Tekkit.

Devastashon Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 all of the suggestions so far have not worked, and i probably do have a firewall, but i have no idea how to use it for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djinnii Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Did you try running Tekkit on a different port? eg: 25566 or 34125 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loh Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 If you have issues in selecting ports, simply go to wiki and type the word Port and a number, this will tell you if that port is commonly used and if it is generally used by a specific function. For server hosting Use the ports as these do not have any uncommon or common uses that is found in everyday computers. 25565-25570 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
