That's a long post with very little useful information.

 

Posting videos of what other people have done is no replacement for explaining what you actually did.

Those other people got it  to work, you did not. So you did something different.

Images and videos are usually worthless anyway compared with showing logs and the output from commands.

 

Installing the server is explained in the FAQ at the top of the forum.

Explain how what you did deviates from that and/or what errors you get when trying to follow it.

 

NOTE: If you don't have access to XWindows or similar to run the GUI of the installer, you can from the command line run:

java -jar forge-xxx-installer.jar --installServer

in the folder where you want the server.

If you don't post your logs/debug.log we can't help you. For curseforge you need to enable the forge debug.log in its minecraft settings. You should also post your crash report if you have one.

If there is no error in the log file and you don't have a crash report then post the launcher_log.txt from the minecraft folder. Again for curseforge this will be in your curseforge/minecraft/Install

Large files should be posted to a file sharing site like https://gist.github.com  You should also read the support forum sticky post.

From the FAQ:

Quote

Open the folder you installed Forge to and double click the "run.bat" file on Windows, "run.sh" on macOS or Linux.

The last image (please don't post text as images) shows whatever you are running

Quote

java -jar server.jar nogui

which is the vanilla server.

 

The first lines a forge server boot look something like this (which comes from the run.sh script):

Quote

REM Forge requires a configured set of both JVM and program arguments.

REM Add custom JVM arguments to the user_jvm_args.txt

REM Add custom program arguments {such as nogui} to this file in the next line before the  or

REM  pass them to this script directly

java @user_jvm_args.txt @libraries/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.18.2-40.1.68/win_args.txt

That is the windows output. You said you had linux?

Quote

Error: Could not find or load main class @user_jvm_args.txt

That error usually means you have an older version of java installed. You need java 17

If you are starting the server by double clicking the link, it will be the java in the PATH windows environment variable.

Potentially vanilla minecraft?

No. The installer downloads and modifies the vanilla server.

and how do i ensure it boots from Forge not vanilla?

It is very tedious to give an answer (especially one that is in the FAQ) and you still don't read it.

Quote

./run.sh

 

The rest of your question is not minecraft or modding related.

You want a linux sysadmin forum.

 

If it was me, I would use "wget" on linux, e.g.

gets you latest forge 1.18.2 installer.

 

Finally read this:

We only provide support for older versions when the issue is trivial.

This issue should be trivial, but this thread has gone on way too long. Read and follow the FAQ step by step.

[16:01:59] [Server thread/INFO] [minecraft/DedicatedServer]: Done (7.537s)! For help, type "help"

That message says the server is running.

 

But...

* The log you posted is not the debug.log

* It also does now show anybody trying to connect

* You don't show the client's debug.log so we don't know what error you see.

Quote

but i couldn't connect?

"It does not work" is not a bug report or answerable support request.

 

Please read the FAQ/Rules for posting in this forum instead of wasting people's time with incomplete information.

My guess (I shouldn't have to guess)  is you haven't configured the port the server is listening on to be open to the outside world?

But that is linux admin stuff. It's not an issue for this forum.

Looks like 25565 is the port you need to open.

I obfuscated the ip address.

Download the mods into the mod folder and restart the server.

This thread needs to stop.

You need to do some research for yourself before posting further questions when you really do get stuck.

This forum is for real problems, it's not so you can proxy the work of being your sysadmin to us.
