I try to launch server from my start.command folder and this is what comes up.
Ensure you have followed the download step before proceeding.
- Create a folder, if you haven't already, and put minecraft_server.jar into it. For example, create a folder on the Desktop named minecraft_server and drag the jar file into it.
- Open TextEdit, set the format to plain text (Format > Make Plain Text), copy and paste in the following:
#!/bin/bash cd "$(dirname "$0")" exec java -Xmx1G -Xms1G -jar minecraft_server.jar
- Save the file as "start.command" in the same folder as minecraft_server.jar.
This will give the server enough RAM to run. The amount of RAM can be changed by editing the
to something else, such as1G
for 2 GB.2G
- Open Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities/Terminal).
- Grant execute permissions on file start.command to Owner, Group. and Public. To do so, type in
, with a space after it; drag and drop the start.command file into the terminal window; and then press enter. (This gives run permission to the start.command script.)chmod a+x
- Double-click the start.command file to start the server.
- A new Terminal window will open and, the first time you run the script, several error messages about missing files/directories will appear. This is normal. You're now ready to configure your server.
I followed these instructions to a T please can someone smart person help me. lol
