Server worked until power glitched. Reinstall or recovery possible?

[landeroth]

Using a local server (centos 7  machine in the house) we've been playing locally. It worked until the power either surged or dipped ( was asleep, roommates said it happened). I attempted restarting the server but it gave

 

 

[01:06:46] [server thread/WARN] [FML]: Forge Mod Loader detected that the backup level.dat is being used.

 

This may happen due to a bug or corruption, continuing can damage

your world beyond repair or lose data / progress.

 

It's recommended to create a world backup before continuing.

 

Run the command /fml confirm or or /fml cancel to proceed.

Alternatively start the server with -Dfml.queryResult=confirm or -Dfml.queryResult=cancel to preselect the answer.

 

 

 

the command i used was

/etc/init.d/ServerStart.sh to start the server, so i used

/etc/init.d/ServerStart.sh -Dfml.queryResult=confirm

 

This was the result

I then tried simply

 

/fml confirm

 

and the result was the same. I thought I was using the commands properly but I now think I'm not. Am I missing something really simple and obvious? If I am, can someone point it out please?

you need to add the -D part in the java command of StartServer.sh

Or just type /fml confirm when it asks you to...

[landeroth]

java -server -Xms2048m -Xmx3072m -XX:PermSize=256m -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -Dfml.queryResult=confirm -jar FTBServer-1.7.10-1395.jar nogui

 

worked. thanks so much for the help and for forge:)

/fml confirm didn't work no matter how often i tried it. it kept going through the last few lines i posted. i thought i may need to reconfirm so i did it several times. the change of the command in ServerStart.sh worked perfectly ( I saw it run a few times at that point).

/fml cancel worked on the command prompt screen
