Unable to install mods on a dedicated server
I recently setup CubeCoders AMP game panel on a Debian server and have been trying to install mods using the Satisfactory Mod Manager. I'm able to connect to the server using SFTP but once I switch over to my profile with the mod I get a connection lost error. Checking my servers files I do see that at least some of the mod files transferred.

It looks like you have not yet generated the debug info file!
Please do as the mod manager requested. Click the "Generate debug info" button and send the zip file in <#1243688087578738770> otherwise we will not be able to help you!

You should shut down the dedicated server executable before trying to install mods on it.
I just tried installing a mod while the server was marked as idle so it could communicate over SFTP and I still am unable to install mods. When the Satisfactory server is fully down I'm unable to communicate over SFTP.

ok
It seems like 'idle' might mean that neither the game server nor the FTP server is running
I have no experience with cubecoders, though, so not sure what the best process is there
Idle means the SFTP is listening still It might just be an AMP issue when using SFTP to transfer the mods. I was able to successfully install mods using the cli installed on my server.

Certainly it connects, then the connection is no longer there when it tries to install the mods
The weird thing is it seems to install some of the mod files and then disconnects. Some of threads seem to have had the same issue https://discord.com/channels/555424930502541343/1421307552079155253/1421314668000972832
