Have a question I hope someone might be able to answer. Okay so theres a 1.0.1 bukkit recommended build, I want to update to that so I can update plugins like essentials, permissions, worldedit .ect So, how do I do that without generating a new world? Did some really hard work. I currently have some ghetto bukkit build I tweaked so it would atleast start correctly.

Hey Brother, don't make this harder than it is. All you are really doing is replacing the old jar file with a new one. There are a few things that may be different depending on how you are hosting your server, but this is what I do every time Bukkit updates.

1. Back up your worlds. You should do this regularly anyway, but do it religiously before updating your jar file.
2. Go get the Bukkit Build jar file. You can download the server files direct from the creator's sites: http://bukkit.org - CraftBukkit
3. Now that you have the server JAR file, rename it to the following, regardless of what version it is to craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
4. Shut down your server.
5. Login to your server using an FTP client such as FileZilla
6. Navigate to your server's "service" directory where the old jar was located...
7. Upload the renamed server JAR file and overwrite the existing craftbukkit-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar file.
8. Start up your server and it should start up (check your console for any errors if you are using a hosting service).

As a precaution I will always check every plugin that I am using for a new version and for any issues that have been reported with the build I am going to use. It's important to remember that.sometimes the modders are a little behind because they were waiting for the release too so monitor your plugins documentation pages for a few weeks after you install.

One last thing, this is a good time to give thanks to all of the Minecraft Community Members from Bukkitt and all the modders that work their tails off to make all of this available for us to run our servers on. If you can, throw a few bucks their way but I simple :"thanks for all you do" goes a long way.

Just put the bukkit rb 1.0.1 in your server, download all latest plugin jars for your server and replace the old plugins jars. also back up your server just in case.
