I downloaded the server from the minecraft website, and it brought up a white window with a bunch of text:
[INFO] Starting minecraft server version 0.1.4

So then I assumed that it was up and running, and that I just had to copy and paste my ip address into the multiplayer section of the game, but it doesn't work. Tells me that there is no server at that location. What do i do?

Sounds like a problem with your world. personally as trouble shooting I would back up the current world folder then delete it and let the server create a new "world" and see if you get that error still.
