Describe the issue: I get an error from trying to connect to a server I am hosting through localhost and I keep getting the error:
Connection Lost
Internal Exception: io.netty.handler.codec.DecoderException: io.netty.handler.codec.EncoderException: java.io.IOException: Root tag must be a named compound tag
then when i try connecting through the IP address I get the owo handshake failure
I checked the wiki and I realized there must be a mismatch of files between the client and the server files but I do not know where I should look for these files
Steps you've taken in effort to resolve this issue:
-Uninstalled and installed the serverfiles again and again
-dragged the mods in the client folder into the server folder
-downloaded the override files and dragged into the server folder
