1. Yes you need the latest version of Java.
2. You don't need any commands if your running the server from your computer.
6. Yes.
7. No, leave players.txt alone, that simply says who's on your server.
8. No, it looks fine.
Well i downloaded newest java so what do i do now
whats that I said basicly i cant go on that via url
I Think its set to private...
im not a server runner but thats my geuss
no its public duh ! lol
Ok, here's a clear step by step tutorial.
1. Start the server by running start_server.bat.
2. Make sure no errors occur.
3. Minimize the window.
4. Open your browser and go to http://www.whatismyip.com.
5. Copy your IP address.
6. Insert your IP below. (Remove < and >.)
www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?server=<YOUR IP>&port=25565
7. Open the World of Minecraft client. Login. At the bottom of the server window, insert the url you just made above.
8. Click go.
If that still doesn't work, please clearly say the error you are experiencing.
Ok i went to the www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?server=<YOUR IP>&port=25565 when I got there it said you cant connect to this server via this url anymore !... im pissed and i feel like an idiot... this is hard
you mean the hack client...
idk which client login thingy
1. Open your browser and go to http://www.whatismyip.com.
2. Copy the IP address it gives you.
3. Open notepad, paste that IP.
4. Copy the url below, paste it in notepad.
www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?server=YOURIP&port=25565
5. Copy the IP you got from the first site, and replace YOURIP in the url that you copied below, with your IP.
6. Copy the full new url, paste it into the url box of the World of Minecraft client, or navigate there using your browser.
Note: Your new url should look like the one below, but a different IP.
www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?server=87.231.162.72&port=25565
he needs to set verifynames to false to join the server.
OK I did all of that and then I put Verifynames to false to try to go in I opened the RUN.BAT and tried to go on the server but it wont let me...
YOU STOLE MY AVATAR!!!
K changed it so what now ? lolz
Are you running on a network with a router? Cause if so, you need to forward the selected port to the comp running the server. Hope that might help.
Have you done port forwarding? If not no player can connect to your server!
go to externalurl and use the url.not working for me now?

Are you using a VPS?
If yes:
Linux or Windows?
What command are you using to run minecraft?
What version of Java do you have?
If not:
Try going to http://www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?server=<YOUR IP>&port=<SERVER PORT>.
You can find your ip for that url by going here.
