Here is your fix:

Okay, since I'm a dumb blonde girl, no offense to other ones, I need a little help in those instructions.

My questions:

What do I put in the PATH variable? I've changed it to every other thing, even deleted it and made a new one and it still doesn't work.

How do I get my old PATH back? (Yes because I deleted the first one)

....I'm so sorry that I'm stupid.

Deleting your whole PATH Variable can cause your PC to not boot the next time you start it up.

This is my PATH:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Shared;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Users\AlienX\Documents\Coding\Java\apache-maven-3.0.4\bin

I am running Windows 7 64Bit, you can use this path also if you use the same operating system as me (at bit), however take out what you dont have installed.



Then on the end of the PATH, put this:

;PATH_TO_JAVA_BIN_DIRECTORY

Example:

;C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin

(Ensure the semi colon is there)

[Mpresley01]

So would it look like this?

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\Common;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Shared;C:\Program Files\bin;C:\Users\Morgan\Documents\Coding\Java\apache-maven-3.0.4\bin

[AlienX]

Kinda,

Take the Apache Maven stuff out, and if you dont own an Nvidia GPU take that nvidia refrenence out.

Then stick the java bit on the end.

I would tell you what the PATH should be, but there are two reasons why im not:

[list type=decimal]

[li]You would not learn anything[/li]

[li]I dont know what java path you have.[/li]

[Mpresley01]

Okay, that makes sense, I think.

This is what I got:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\Common;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Shared;C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin

[Mpresley01]

C:\Users\Morgan\Downloads\Tekkit_Server_3.0.3>java -Xmx3G -Xms2G -jar Tekkit.jar

What did I dooo.....

It's more like what you didn't do, which is read the stickies.

Also, somebody's code broke the table, probably AlienX's. Then people quoting the code broke them some more. Please don't break the table.

[Mpresley01]

Thank you both, it's running!!!! :D
