      Running the server it doesn't download any of the server.properties files etc. When I try to connect to the server it doesn't work.

      Bat file:
      @echo off
      "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_25\bin\java.exe" -server -d64 -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar Minecraft_server.1.8.1.jar gui
      pause

      To run a minecraft server over the internet for friends to join. Yes, port forwarding is enabled for port 25565, and if I run minecraft_server.exe everything works fine, but there isn't enough ram allocated as such I am trying to run the jar file.

      server should download files but the folder stays empty with my .jar file and my .bat file, even though it appears to load the launcher and suggests things are working.

      can't connect to server.

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. download minecraft_server.jar
      2. rename to minecraft_server.1.8.1.jar
      3. run batch script
      @echo off
      "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_25\bin\java.exe" -server -d64 -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar Minecraft_server.1.8.1.jar gui
      pause
      launcher opens, and game loads, but I can't connect to my server either by local ip of 192.168.1.4 or via my internet ip, (not listing here)

      I have watched dozens of videos on setting up a minecraft server, but my computer doesn't work like everyone else, no files are downloaded or created, is this a bug in 1.8.1?
