How? 😅

thank you, i think i doxxed myself I opened the ports on the server, now im getting incompatible mod list? https://pastebin.com/BYaeG6VT

https://pastebin.com/F6tRWiHa I did not know where those FAQ were, sorry. I did say i have absolutely no idea what i am doing.

https://pastebin.com/2viY2xYP This is what was output by Putty when i used ./run.sh, i think the server started? but i couldn't connect?

i obviously need: Forge Java Potentially vanilla minecraft? what is the best way for me to upload these to this server, and how do i ensure it boots from Forge not vanilla?

I have Linux on the server, I myself am on windows, when i upload the forge straight to the server i cant use it so I am doing it this way: https://youtu.be/5oYZVxHi0KM then uploading to the server via fireZilla

Does this help?

Okay well: i did exactly what was in the forge install tutorial here: https://youtu.be/5oYZVxHi0KM and I got this https://pasteboard.co/i4OCklrBwt7C.png which differs from the video as I do not get .jar java files. Which is definitely wrong, and the error I am getting is the server booting in Vanilla, so not technically an error. Just not what is supposed to happen. As shown in the Putty screenshot, the server loads, but vanilla. https://pasteboard.co/TP1tezmF4d3b.png

A few days ago I stumbled across this blog: https://blogs.oracle.com/developers/post/how-to-set-up-and-run-a-really-powerful-free-minecraft-server-in-the-cloud Please note I am generally technically minded and when normal people have tech problems I can fix them, however, I know absolutely nothing about Linux, Ubuntu, PuTTY or FireZilla. Other than the fact they exist and they follow general computer principles (e.g I know Linux has syntax, I just don't know any of it). I thought it was incredibly interesting so I decided to follow it. I managed to get it all up and running with a Vanilla server - Great success! However this is where my greed got me, I wanted mods. More specifically Modpacks, so i decided to have a snoop and google yeilded me this: https://youtu.be/RyC-m725uTs I proceeded to terminate the instance I had produced using the blog and made a new one following this Youtube tutorial (Which I found on Reddit). Anyway, I was astute enough to recognise that this tutorial uses Ubuntu and not Oracle Linux. So I knew somethings would be slightly different but I thought I could generally compensate for the differences with my computer knowledge. Right at the end of this tutorial he explains how to add a single mod, however this seems to be in one of the latest versions of minecraft. The modpack I am trying to add is this one: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/dysfunctionals-tech-bombs-guns-war which uses Minecraft: 1.18.2 and Forge: 40.1.80 so I went looking and I found this, which gave me a slightly better understanding how the whole thing I am doing works: https://youtu.be/asjKcpXEXqo and although it reverts to the original Linux Arm from the blog and has no mods, I managed to use it to boot a Vanilla Server in 1.18.2 instead of 1.20.1. Which was a massive win, because as stated, I only have 80% of an idea what I am doing, I just have a vision. I used this video to understand FTP, FileZilla, and installing forge: https://youtu.be/5oYZVxHi0KM however when I use the method detailed of installing forge instead of Java files ending in .jar I get other stuff: https://pasteboard.co/i4OCklrBwt7C.png I have uploaded this to a new instance after terminating the other one I had going with both Java for 1.20.1 and Java for 1.18.2. On the new one I only installed just the Java version I needed and the forge files https://pasteboard.co/yw3Wgnc2WrD4.png and not even vanilla minecraft, however when that wouldn't boot I also tried it with vanilla added too but it just booted as Vanilla. The main thing I need to know is how do I get the server to boot as modded, but I am also concerned that the files I get from forge are different to the video. The commands I have used in different instances to boot are: 1) cd minecraft screen ./run.sh 2) java -Xmx1024M -Xms1024M -jar server.jar nogui Some images of my things I have from this process: https://pasteboard.co/rYTbBAeC5D07.png https://pasteboard.co/TP1tezmF4d3b.png Please help anyway you can even if it is just clarifying on the Forge files, but if anyone has any insight as to why the server is booting as Vanilla I would be eternally grateful, I have been working on this for over 4 days now and I am tearing my hair out.
