That log is useless as there is 0 logs generated for this issue

Screenshot your VPN client that shows the IP you're trying to set it to
and upload your fika.jsonc
lean linden
sure thing
My pc that I will be playing on is the coffee grinder, the dedicated server pc that I am trying to run the headless client from is the coffee maker
midnight lily
Which one is thie server that's failling to load on, where you got this fika.jsonc from
lean linden
I got it from the coffee maker, so the machine running the server
midnight lily
Then that's the issue. It should be that device's IP
The server is trying to bind to an IP that doesn't exist on that device
So if you're running the server on coffee-maker, both ip and backendIp should be 26.232.168.123
why didn't I even THINK of that
midnight lily
"scripts": { "generate": true, "forceIp": "https://26.146.27.175:6969"
And your forceIP here is wrong, which means your headless is currently trying to connect to an incorrect IP
lean linden
I changed force ip and the server ip's to my coffee maker. Seems like it should be fine
Thank you VERY much
@midnight lily sorry one last question just as side clarification. For adding mods to this server, I SHOULD NOT add gear mods/asset mods to the server correct? Those all get installed locally, but the server client requires all game framework mods?

Now headless client is slightly different.

from what I read in that and on the fika wiki it seems slightly contradictory. As the wiki says the headless server is very mod sensitive, so I am apprehensive to load mods that add (for example) weapons/attachments to it. However based off of my understanding and the spt link you just provided I feel like I should just install all the mods server & client side on all machines connected
Last time I hosted a modded spt was 3.1x on my own pc, sorry for the trouble

there's no such thing as a headless server in common parlance. there's the backend server, SPT.Server.exe, which runs in a console and is "headless" by default but the headless moniker is not useful there because there is no headfull version of the backend server.
the headless client is headless insofar as the graphics requirement has been removed, so no head.
server mods go on the server. client plugins are loaded by a client. a headless client gets fewer client plugins than the game client where you play.
if you think something is contradictory in that #1204039574314295296 or on the wiki i'd suggest reading again.
server mods are anything that goes in SPT/user/mods/
client plugins are anything that goes in BepInEx/
something like SAIN has both a client plugin and a server mod. two separate components that combine to make one "mod"
As the wiki says the headless server is very mod sensitive, so I am apprehensive to load mods that add (for example) weapons/attachments to it
weapon/attachment mods are always server mods, and some of them have a client plugin component (like wtt pack n strap). the server mod part must go on the server, and the client plugin part probably goes everywhere including the headless client
lean linden
Ok that's what I figured, but the mod sensitivity put me off. I will just isntall all client&server mods onto the "headless client pc" as the only negative I can seem to think of would be increased load times while the headless client processes fika plugins.
split sky
you will break your headless client if you willy nilly install everything on it
all the guidance you need to be successful is there
lean linden
sweet, I have a game plan, looks like it'll be a bit of trial and error with some mods (loading 52 in total) but I have a start. thank you
