You started a Vanilla server, not a Forge server

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.

Logs (Most issues require logs to diagnose):

Reveal hidden contents

Please post logs using one of the following sites (Thank you Lumber Wizard for the list):

https://gist.github.com/: 100MB Requires member (Free)

https://pastebin.com/: 512KB as guest, 10MB as Pro ($$$)

https://hastebin.com/: 400KB

Do NOT use sites like Mediafire, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or a site that has a countdown before offering downloads.

What to provide:

...for Crashes and Runtime issues:

Minecraft 1.14.4 and newer:

Post debug.log

Older versions:

Please update...

...for Installer Issues:

Post your installer log, found in the same place you ran the installer

This log will be called either installer.log or named the same as the installer but with .log on the end

Note for Windows users:

Windows hides file extensions by default so the installer may appear without the .jar extension then when the .log is added the log will appear with the .jar extension

Where to get it:

Mojang Launcher: When using the Mojang launcher debug.log is found in .minecraft\logs.

Curse/Overwolf: If you are using the Curse Launcher, their configurations break Forge's log settings, fortunately there is an easier workaround than I originally thought, this works even with Curse's installation of the Minecraft launcher as long as it is not launched THROUGH Twitch:

or alternately,

Fallback ("No logs are generated"):

If you don't see logs generated in the usual place, provide the launcher_log.txt from .minecraft

You know you need to run the Forge jar and not the Vanilla jar to start a Forge server, right?

- Game crash while loading mods

  I tried updating the mods in my modpack which caused incompatibilities so i have tried to revert them back to their older versions i was using before. In the logs it doesnt show me any clear incompatibilities except for tfmg & entity texture features, but when i try to remove those it still doesn't work. I have tried removing the forge-client.toml file which was a suggestion i found on a few other posts. This is the log file i get. [inline log removed] Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

  I don't use KubeJS, never even heard of it. But after doing what "Ugdhar" suggested earlier in this post with the "config/Mekanism/generator-storage.toml", I tried going into an individual save's serverconfig folder, and just deleting everything except the parcool folder (I have that mod installed.) Then, a bit of loading and temporary freezing later, seems to have worked. Even when quitting to menu and loading back in, or also when quitting to menu, exiting to desktop, and re-launching MC, choose a save and loading it.

  [Mekanism] Broken tags in Mekanism recipes detected, please check server logs for details. You will be missing some recipes and machines may not accept expected inputs. Do you use KubeJS? It is some kind of bug with it and not fixed A workaround is setting "allowAsyncStreams" to false in the KubeJS common config file https://github.com/KubeJS-Mods/KubeJS/issues/1016 For the rest of your issues, keep deleting these files - now it is the jei-server.toml file If the file is not in config, check the worldsave serverconfig folder These files usually break after updating mods, game crashes or force closing the game
