I've done everything I can think of. Deleted all zomboid folders, deleted Db folder, tried to start without mods. verify files, and the server initialize immeditely aborts and says normal termination. Any ideas?

Can you share your logs.zip file found in %UserProfile%\Zomboid?

Error specifies you do not have enough RAM for the server

#

How much did you assign to the server and how much free RAM do you have at the moment of starting it?

Thats strange, I have my Ram set to auto on my Rog Ally X I think, but I have 16 gigs max. But idk how much RAM i have at the start of launching the server

#

When I get back to the house I'll check my RAM allocation and how much RAM I actually have

#

I have 7.70 gigs usable out of 16 gigs

#

How should I go about clearing it?

Try assigning 4-5gb to the server in that case

#

That should be enough for the server

That did work
