follow the directions here to install mods on servers

PigglezOP•2mo ago

i did that and it started initially and soon as i created a world it went offline ill double check server compatability i guess

Robb•2mo ago

does the server work again if you turn all mods off? it shouldn't even allow installing mods that aren't compatible with the server in the first place

PigglezOP•2mo ago

hmm

If this isn't the mod you were looking for, try a different spelling.

PigglezOP•2mo ago

so i deleted the mod file to try that right quick

Robb•2mo ago

this is the particular mod it crashed on, but usually when there are problems like this, it's just the alphabetically first in the order mod that gets the lucky role of showing up

PigglezOP•2mo ago

because i opened the mod file and it had old mods in it

Robb•2mo ago

did you delete the mod file or turn it off via the mod manager?

PigglezOP•2mo ago

i tried turning it off and that didnt work so i just deleted it (well reinstalled server)

Robb•2mo ago

did you shut down the game server before trying to modify the installed mods?

PigglezOP•2mo ago

yes

Robb•2mo ago

ah yeah a full reinstall would hopefully get rid of it

PigglezOP•2mo ago

wondering if old backups are causing issues tbh i quit for like 3 months and me and my buddy wanted to run a fresh run but i never stopped paying for the server before so now its working idk :d ty for the help @Robb

Robb•2mo ago

what was the fix? deleting old backups? and what provider were you using, in case someone else runs into problems too?
