Minecraft Forums

Hi you all, first post here.
My sons are addicted to MineCraft. Since we are planning to travel to Machu Picchu, I'd like to let them play in in the Inca's legendary city. I've searched some info, download textures and a map, but I'm not able to connect to the sever.

I'm using Minecraft Pocket Edition version 0.7.5 alpha in an Nexus 7 with the latest android 4.3.
I've managed to find the hidden server interface and already successfully connected it to an external server.

My Ubuntu linux desktop is the server machine. I'm using the server 1.6.4 with Sun's Java jre 1.6.0.26.

I start the server with this command:

/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.26/bin/java -Xms1G -Xmx1G -jar minecraft_server.1.6.4.jar

It starts the server with the message:
[INFO] Starting Minecraft server on *:25565

I try to connect using the ip address 192.168.1.104 and the port 25565.

When I try to connect to it, I always get the messages:

Generating world
Connecting to server
Unable to connect to world

I've tried the default port 19132, but it still fails. I can connect to the machine IP from my tablet using a ssh client.

Here is the server log:

Please, can someone here help me to debug it?

kind regards,
Paulo

I've tried other things:

1. I've downloaded the new server: minecraft_server.13w38c.jar
2. I've set the IP 192.168.1.104 in the server.properties file
3. I've set the port in the server.properties file
4. From my tablet I've successfully connected the server and port with a telnet client, so the network is ok.

Unfortunately everything failed. I still get the "Unable to connect to world" error.

I've got the correct answer in another forum. I've successfully configure a server for PE using PocketMine.
