How Do I Fix This Run.bat thing For Minecraft Bukkit Servers [closed]

I followed Bukkit.org's steps:

  1. Create a folder with your choice of names
  2. Download the latest recommended build CraftBukkit.Jar
  3. Place the Craftbukkit1.5.2 jar from step 2 in your folder
  4. Rename CraftBukkit1.5.2-R1.0.Jar To CraftBukkit.jar
  5. Open Notepad and copy and paste java -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar -o true PAUSE
  6. Save the Notepad text you just wrote and click save-as (Name).Bat (I did run.bat too. It still didn't work .)
  7. Double-Click Run.bat or (Name).bat and it should load your world

[Step 7 Error Please Read]: I opened up Run.bat and it is in the same file as craftbukkit.jar Which is the folder I made. It is right below craftbukkit.jar and I open up Run.bat and this crap showed up.

Cropped screenshot says, "Error unable to access jarfile craftbukkit.jar"

You've almost certainly named it craftbukkit.jar.jar instead of craftbukkit.jar, due to Windows hiding file extensions from you. Remove the visible .jar from the file name (the hidden .jar will still be there) and the script should work.

If you are using Craft Bukkit 1.5.2 Try this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -jar craftbukkit.jar -o true
