The screenshot you gave is output from Java, not Javascript. Java (typically) runs server-side, Javascript is (generally) run client-side in a web browser.

 

The error message says exactly what it means: Java can't find the "PlayerHandler" or "misc" class definitions. My guess is that you need to include something in your (server-side) Java CLASSPATH, or place a JAR file with a bunch of libraries in it in a library folder someplace. I assume you have a web server somewhere that you are trying to install this on? Where does it want Java files put (check the documentation for your server)?

 

What's an "rs server", by the way - Runescape?

I take it you mean Java rather than JavaScript?

 

Looks like your app isn't linking to the JRE properly.

Thnx for the help. That last problem is sorted now and it says the server is online but when i try and connect using localhost an error comes up again and it closes.

TBH... this server sounds a little on the buggy-side. Have you tried connecting via your 'proper' IP address?

How did you sort that error message? Your new error message says pretty much exactly the same kind of thing as the last one - the Java runtime can't find the class definition it's looking for. You probably need to add a JAR or CLASS file to the Java interpreter's CLASSPATH, or move a JAR file to the interpreter's library directory. What web server are you using - Apache, Tomcat? Both of those will have default locations for you to add library file to.

You might get better support from a Runescape board, people there will have a bit more experience with the system you're trying to install. I'm judging from the screenshot that you're running this server on your home desktop system, are you going to leave it on the whole time for people to connect to?

Yea ive tried with my proper IP address and i get the same thing.

 

Yea im gonna run it from my computer and like most of the others do just run it whenever i can. Hardly any of the servers are up constantly some only 1 hour a day.

 

Ill try it again and see what files im missing.

 

Thnx Brendan

 

EDIT: Ive now found a different server to use which does work (Most of the time) Thanks for all the help. If anyone plays on private rs servers come join me on 80.42.206.215

 

I have got another problem now. When i was messin about with the old one i somehow ruined my java in my browser and it wont work. Any1 know how i can fix it.

 

Thnx Brendan
