I have purchased a server from Vortex. I put together a bunch of mods I wanted to play for MC 1.7.2 and checked them out in SSP and got all the mods to play together. I copied the mods to the server then installed (through the Installer) the server into an empty folder. I took those files and copied them to the server. I used the forge installer and installed forge-1.7.2-10.12.2.1147-universal server and copied it over.
I had to open a ticket to get the server host to set up the server to start with forge.jar and now the server will not start. When I click on start I get an initial spike on cpu usage on the server then I get a PID 0 message. If anyone could tell me what I am doing wrong. I have searched and have not found any useful info. All of the guides I read are about servers at someones home where they have complete control and can set up a start.bat file.
I thought that maybe the forge file didnt like to be renamed so I installed the server again and then uploaded a fresh forge.jar without renaming. This however made no difference. I am still getting the same thing.
Right now I am trying to get the server started with no mods just forge and I am getting nowhere.
