Hello, I'm new to the forums and actually new to the Forge client. So I apologize in advance for my ignorance. I will do the best I can to be concise.

 

First I used the latest version installer for both the client and the server. This is 9.10.0.842 on the website I was directed to. I am currently using a .bat file to start the server (works properly with a vanilla .jar server from minecraft.net) but when I try targetting the minecraftforge-universal-1.6.2-9.10.0.842.jar file within my server directory, the command prompt pops up and immediately closes. When I manually execute the batch command, the following is produced:

 

 

C:\Users\Derek>java -Xms512M -Xmx512M -jar C:\Users\Derek\Desktop\PixelmonServer

\minecraftforge-universal-1.6.2-9.10.0.842.jar

I've ensured that I have the most recent version of Java installed on my computer.

 

Additionally, when trying to manually install the server via the installer, certain libraries would refuse to download. This is another issue I have no idea how I am supposed to fix. I've gotten friends to install the files and forward them directly to me. I then used those files in place of the libraries folder that wouldn't download completely. Perhaps this was an error in judgment on my part. I'm not sure to be honest.

 

Unfortunately I've come to posting on the forums due to the answers unavailable on the forums (as far as I could see, anyway. Forgive me if I overlooked such a post) Thank you for your time, hopefully we can get this figured out.

Make sure you're actually inside your server's directory before running the command

The working directory must be the folder with the vanilla server jar and the libraries folder.

I apologize for the spam, but please see my updated post. I mis-pasted the output on the command prompt. There were several lines missing.

 

Yes, I am certain everything is within the bounds of the server directory.

Yes, I am certain everything is within the bounds of the server directory.

C:\Users\Derek>java -Xms512M -Xmx512M -jar C:\Users\Derek\Desktop\PixelmonServer\minecraftforge-universal-1.6.2-9.10.0.842.jar

....

Notice how the working directory is 'C:\Users\Derek' and you're required to specify the FULL PATH of the forge jar?

Ya you're not inside the server folder.

 

How's this?

As expected, it made no difference. Even when I deleted the file location of the .jar at the end of the command. But these errors are really throwing me off.

One step closer, you're not running it from within the server folder.

Now, when you used the installer, and selectected the 'install server' it should of cerated a 'libraries' folder and download a bunch of files into there. Did it?

And if it did can you give me a list of those files?

Hm? What do you mean? I ensured that the command prompt was running directly from that folder. Didn't I? The end was "PixelmonServer", was it not?

 

The files are:

 

 

argo-2.25_fixed.jar

gson-2.2.2.jar

guava-14.0.jar

codecjorbis-20101023.jar

codecwav-20101023.jar

lwjgl-platform-2.9.0-natives-windows.jar

asm-all-4.1.jar

scala-compiler-2.10.2.jar

scala-library-2.10.2.jar

 

 

 

Eah typo, now*

Those shouldn't be the files in the server's install.

It should be subset of that.

Also, what are the exact paths to each file.

Um, for some reason the forum is not allowing me to attach a .zip of the libraries folder. can I e-mail it to you perhaps?

Actually, I found a command that could do it for me. Hope this helps!

None of those should exist and minecraft_server.jar Should Be 'minecraft_server.1.6.2.jar'

No wonder it cant find things, minecraft isn't named correctly -.-

 

 

I did use the installer. But some of the files didn't download properly.

 

And it's not searching for minecraft_server.1.6.2 at all. That file is honestly irrelevant to this whole post. That's a vanilla server .jar file. I used that to test my batch file (which works fine I've found.)

That fine is EXTREAMLY relivent. As it is where the bulk of the libraries are, and where all of the miencraft code is.

It MUST be named 'minecraft_server.1.6.2.jar' So that Forge can find it.

There is a reason why it downloads when you run the installer -.-
