No Such Item: NEI Can't Spawn Tekkit Items, just displays No Such Item in chat

[redranger]

Launcher/pack Version: Server files and launcher downloaded from this Tekkit page today: http://www.technicpack.net/tekkit/

Operating System: Server is CentOS, launcher is Mac and Windows (happening on both)

Version of Java: 1.7.0_03

Description of Problem: I've installed Tekkit on a server for somebody and it's crashing when they add items to the bottom row of their inventory (to hold them). Also doesn't seem to be loading correctly.

This error occurs on startup:

Re: Crashes: custom_recipes.txt recipe #1 error:null, null

The error on startup is fine, I get that on my server also and everything works fine. It looks like it happens because only slot 13 has a custom recipe for it to load.

The other error is because you are playing in creative mode, it doesn't work right with Tekkit.

You have to use NEI to spawn items, putting stuff on your hotbar while in creative mode causes those crashes you are seeing.

If you don't know how to turn on item spawning with NEI, read the following thread:

Glad I could help you resolve your issue.

Re: Crashes: custom_recipes.txt recipe #1 error:null, null

It turns out this wasn't fixed, it only allows us to place basic Minecraft items, if I try placing any Tekkit items I still get disconnected with the same error.

I've changed NEI.cfg and changed the inventory options as instructed in the forum thread you linked me to but still placing Tekkit items disconnects me from the server.

Re: Crashes: custom_recipes.txt recipe #1 error:null, null

Also NEI does nothing when I place items in my inventory with it, when I click an item it says 'no such item'.

Here's the error when I try /give on Tekkit item 199:

Seems to be this repeatedly:

Going by the original log you posted, it doesn't seem to be loading any of the actual mods, just the Bukkit plugins. Make sure the 'mods' directory is there under the server directory and filled with a bunch of .zip files (e.g., maybe you forgot to copy subdirectories over when installing the server).

(Edit: And if that is the case, then they might want to restart their world if they haven't invested too much effort in it yet, as it'll be missing a lot of stuff like the new ores and trees in chunks that have already been generated.)

[redranger]

The mods folder is there and full of zips. I've changed their permissions from 664 to 775 and restarted but I'm still not able to use NEI or place Tekkit items.

Here's a full startup log:

Did you manually move the Tekkit.jar file to the 'jar' directory under there? It may be looking for everything relative to that, so it's expecting the mod files to be in 'jar/mods', configs to be in 'jar/config', etc. Try moving the jar file back to the main server directory.

[redranger]

Ah, the server was looking in the jar folder for all its files, but it just had Tekkit.jar and some empty folders. I unzipped the server files downloaded from Tekkit into the jar folder and it now works. Thanks for that.
