Apple Script error number -1728

Here:

set serverfolder to quoted form of POSIX path of ((container of (choose file)) as alias)

(69303)

AppleScript questions are best asked in Mac OS X Technologies

I've asked the hosts to move this there.

This script is a bit confused

1. You don't really need the Finder tell block at all. the only thing the finder does is get you the folder of the file you select, but you could just as easily use the choose folder command and get the folder directly.

2. I don't think there's a need for you to script terminal. unless you need to interact with the java program, you should just run this in the background using do shell script. otherwise you're just giving yourself headaches.

if you don't need to interact with the java, you should use something like this:

display dialog "Bitte wählen Sie den Ordner, in welchem sich ihre minecraft_server.jar befindet."

set serverfolder to quoted form of POSIX path of (choose folder)

set cmd to "cd " & serverfolder & "; java -Xmx2048M -Xms2048M -jar minecraft_server.jar &"

do shell scriptcmd

If you do need to interact in terminal then keep the terminal tell block that you're currently using and just get rid of the Finder tell block.

**edited: removed the 'container of' line before the choose folder command
