1.7.10 Spigot server running 100% of cpu power and not working

So, I have a paper 1.14.4 (I imported the jar file) on my machine and it works completely fine. But when I try to make a 1.7.10 spigot server it suddenly generates a 3.5gb log file and refuses to work.

It happens when I try to join the server btw.

OS: Debian 10.2
RAM: 8gb 1x4
CPU: A10 7800

Try this,

Open the server.properties file, set use-native-transport=false
Will have a performance hit, but might stop it from exploding

If that doesn’t work check your Java version

java -version

If it outputs Java 10 or greater that could be your issue. You need to have Java 8 if not then java 7.

Searching “spigot-1.8.8.jar:git-Spigot-21fe707-e1ebe52 unable to access address of buffer” I found people downgrading java versions so I’m 80% is your current java version.

This has happened to me when there are mod incompatabliities or the server is running on a version of java that is to new for ye olde minecraft version (eg java 11 on Minecraft 1.7.10). Try checking your java version or giving us your modlist and we can go from there.

I’m sorry for not responding but I recently did a fresh install. And I have Java 11, so does anyone know how to “downgrade” to Java 8 from Java 11?

Thank you

apt-get remove default-jre i should think. If not try find the package name, as for java 8 most repositories for it are no longer maintained so you will have to find a deb package or something

You can use this ppa for installing Java 8. https://desertebs.com/ubuntu/install-oracle-java-8-9-in-ubuntu-18-04-and-linux-mint-18

No it don’t work. I got it working though doing a frankendebian, which basically I just added stretch repos, did a sudo apt update, then getting Java 8, and after that removing the strecth repos with another sudo apt update so i dont break my machine

Or you could use this lil guide I made https://nojus.trexion.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&p=3&sid=400f88fc1a882af2bb39f28b119c8122#p3
