Thanks it works now

an external hdd?

its the drive letter where the server is saved

ok let me try that

also there is no log in the "logs" folder about this either.

this only worked when i did it via powershell, nothing was happening by itself

im getting an error https://pastebin.com/gHbXKBbh

oh... Let me check if i run that if the mods work

using this version

from here i run minecraft_server.1.16.5.jar, This is my mods folder server side if that changes anything These are the mods i have client side then i launch minecraft

i can send ss and logs if u need

it is 100% a forge server

So i am trying to make a Minecraft forge server hosted on my pc for me and my friends. I am quite new to making a forge server but have created a few spigot and paper servers before. So i have all my mods (server-side) saved in the "mods" folder in the server files. All the mods which require server-side mods are saved in my "mods" folder in my .Minecraft folder. i have the latest version of Forge 1.16.5 on both my server and client-side. So what happens is if i turn on my server and client side, when the server starts and i log into the server (using localhost they are both on the same pc) i cannot use my mods, they do show and i can obtain the items, if i try to place them - they don't work. they essentially place (client side i think) then disappear, i cannot interact with them as they have disappeared. I can provide logs etc. etc. also i am using Azul OpenJDK 16.0.2 if that makes a difference. Also all the mods *are* compatible with 1.16.5. Any help would be appreciated.
