Cauldron Server Jar not launching.

[winkatawink]

as a continuation of my other topic >here.

 

When I double click the cauldron server jar, it loads for a couple of seconds and then nothing happens.

 

Here is the log that is produced when i attempt to run the server:

• One does not "double click" the server JAR in order to start the server. There are multiple command line parameters which need to be added to the command line for it to work properly. Create a batch file that looks something like this:

startserver.bat:

@echo off

java -Xms2048m -Xmx2048m -XX:PermSize=128m cauldron-server-filename.jar nogui

You would adjust the memory and permanent generation size according to your needs.

• Your console output clearly shows what the problem is:

[18:01:37] [Server thread/WARN]: Failed to load eula.txt
[18:01:37] [Server thread/INFO]: You need to agree to the EULA in order to run the server. Go to eula.txt for more info.

Just another note, once the server is ran through a batch file instead, the following lines will also go away:

[18:01:36] [Server thread/WARN]: To start the server with more ram, launch it as "java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar minecraft_server.jar"
[18:01:36] [Server console handler/ERROR]: Exception handling console input

(Note: the other lines below the second one will also go away with it, its part of the same line overall but without the timestamp info, marking it as a line continuation)

Thanks for the help. Unfortunatley agreeing to the EULA just gives the same result. Below is the latest log in the logs folder

I attempted to do the .bat file startup, however this appears in the console.

 

 

Sorry for the complications.

[winkatawink]

update: managed to fix the last issue but now this is happening.

 

 

EDIT: new upadate, for some reason it now doesnt recognise the cauldron jar.

 

 

I made sure they both had the same name.

Java not being recognized is often due to the PATH variable not being set properly. As for the JVM issue - theres a minor fix but it can be a hassle itself that overwrites RAM set by the launcher. For the last issue, it doesnt seem to be finding the jar properly. Ensure the name is correct (itd be easier to name it modpack.jar or something shorter without the numbers hyphens and periods)

Shouldn't this work? I seem to be getting the same message.

[Kalbintion]

To verify - this modpack is actually meant for 1.7.10? And you do not have any issues with running the cauldron.jar file by itself without via a batch (.bat) file? It's possible your download of the jar file got corrupted somehow.

 

 

Also, fyi, -Xmx512m is a bit small for a server, maybe not for vanilla, but usually is for a server, but this isnt the issue atm.

[winkatawink]

yes, the modpack is meant for 1.7.10. I will try reinstalling the cauldron jar.

 

I had to reduce the size to get around the 'object heap' issue, unfortunately :/

 

EDIT: tried reinstalling. same issue.

[Kalbintion]

The -Xmx512m flag is actually the workaround provided by some sites about the JVM failing to create, only instead of setting it via the command line an app at a time, itd be the default value set to the _JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable (which is the same thing responsible for overwriting flags set by a batch file, etc in some cases) so yeah, im not 100% sure why this fails to create for some people. My only suggestion is reinstalling Java may fix that particular issue (uninstall all versions, reboot, reinstall in admin mode if possible) for a longer term than being forced in the 512M argument "trick"
