SpongeForge crashes when start

simon816 · December 17, 2015, 7:10pm

Maybe the installer is doing something fancy with the forge jar, but you can just download the universal jar directly from http://files.minecraftforge.net/
If you click “Show all downloads” and hover over the (i) you see the sha-1 is 47f67b31c2a55ccbc63268a7b0915dce341c06c2
You can do this to verify spongeforge too at spongeforge
SHA-1 of minecraft_server.1.8.jar is A028F00E678EE5C6AEF0E29656DCA091B5DF11C7

But as already discovered, the files work on another computer so I think it’s something to do with that computer you’re running it on.

Maybe it’s the PATH variable, or broken JRE, or some Java security setting.

Have you tried creating a completely new spongeforge server? Just set up a new server directory and see if it still happens.
The most recent error is definitely the same as the one you posted?

Through my experience upgrading my OS to Win 10 java can cause many issues if it is not installed correctly. Even when you uninstall java there is a multitude of information including registry entries still present even after a restart. Also i have noticed how you build the server directly is also as important. With that being said, here is the steps i use as i have ran into problems before here and there nothing consistent but still there.

Uninstall Java. I dont care if it’s VM, JDK, JRE. I use iobits uninstaller to do this because of its powerful scanning feature after the regular install. This will show you the amount of data that is still left behind after a normal uninstall done by the application and/or windows. Once this is done restart your pc.
Install VM to run your server with then restart the pc again.
Install JDK as this will come with the jre and u will want when using visualVM. Restart PC
Now the minecraft server you want. In your case first run the minecraft server jar til it loads all the way then stop the server.
Next install the appropriate minecraftForge for 1.8 (pref the recommended build). Start the server. When its finish again stop the server.
Now we will add spongeforge. Start server again then stop when loaded.

To often i have made these errors. Yes is worked a handful of times diff ways but in the end the more intricate your server becomes the more you notice little things you missed becoming exponential problems. Servers, as well as java, need to be installed correctly for the best java registry layout as well as a much cleaner built upon server foundation. After all when you build a house u dont throw the foundation and walls up at the same time so why should pc data be any other way. Especially when it comes to registering via java.

Just my 2 cents hope it helps !

Why are you even attempting to run sponge on 250MB of RAM?
Try increasing the RAM to 2GB (use the flags -Xmx2G and -Xms1G)

ryantheleach · December 18, 2015, 5:44pm

Looks like they had tried various ram values.

Have you tried running it on a different world? If the world isn’t big, maybe zip it up and share it with someone?

JBYoshi · December 18, 2015, 6:53pm

According to the stack trace, this is before any worlds have been loaded.

gabizou · December 18, 2015, 7:50pm

Rerun this server with the proper version of forge (Forge 1577)

ryantheleach · December 19, 2015, 5:55am

FML: MCP v9.10 FML v8.0.99.99 Minecraft Forge 11.14.4.1577 4 mods loaded, 4 mods active

I have no idea why the numbers keep changing, but the original post had ^

CyberFree · December 19, 2015, 3:39pm

Not working. I tried all of them.

Zidane · December 19, 2015, 4:54pm

@CyberFree

Any plugins installed?

Aaron1011 · December 19, 2015, 4:58pm

Can you try running your server again, with the latest SpongeForge build (941)

CyberFree · December 19, 2015, 5:31pm

Nope. No plugins are installed. I tested with build 941.

CyberFree · December 20, 2015, 5:52pm

BUMP. Please help.

ryantheleach · December 20, 2015, 6:17pm

Jump on IRC, your case seems super weird and several of the numbers are changing between posts. without more information it’s going to be nearly impossible to help you.

simon816 · December 21, 2015, 3:13am

OK last idea I’ve got - Try SpongeVanilla https://repo.spongepowered.org/maven/org/spongepowered/spongevanilla/

simon816 · February 7, 2016, 5:22am

@FourFire ???

FourFire · February 7, 2016, 9:05am

Apologies, I posted in the wrong thread.

simon816 · April 7, 2016, 8:37pm

OK so after a long time this issue is actually now fixed.
The problem was to do with the language set on your computer. Some non-English languages caused problems with sponge internals.
It was fixed in this commit:

Get the latest version of SpongeForge (along with correct Forge) and it should now be fine.

ryantheleach · April 9, 2016, 6:04pm

Oh… Gross.

So what happens if you pass in a catalog type as a command argument…

simon816 · April 13, 2016, 11:16pm

@ryantheleach It passes the string to the gameregistry which will lowercase the string with Locale.ENGLISH
