i was trying to update my server to my custom better mc modpack, but when i tried updating the modpack to the server i think something went wrong because i can no longer turn my server on, it stays on for a few seconds before shutting back off. Im not sure if i downloaded the pack right im just very confused and could use some help. thanks

#

im just worried about loosing our worlds server and loosing lots of progress.

Thanks, Otter! I'm in the middle of getting ready for work and you beat me to it. 🙂

Just to pile on here: look in the latest.log file (you can open it with Notepad) for messages saying invalid dist DEDICATED_SERVER. That's the Minecraft server saying "you put a client-only mod on me and I don't like that".

open socket
#

Sounds good, been a bit busy with school today but ill be home soon and ill send the log to you guys

#

Thanks for the help so far!

#

And yes i made sure to make a solid backup haha

open socket
#

heres my latest log on the server

#

it says a bunch of stuff for invalid entries?

#

im just not sure why everything works fine in singleplayer but not multiplayer

#

all i tried to add was the newest update and some animation mods, none of the mods i added myself are showing up

#

on that list

distant wedge
#

This is wrong. Not necessarily the problem you see.

Found 1 non-fabric mod:
- herobrineorigins-1.1.8-neoforge-1.21.1.jar

#

[22:00:34] [main/ERROR]: Minecraft has crashed!
net.fabricmc.loader.impl.FormattedException: java.lang.BootstrapMethodError: java.lang.RuntimeException: Mixin transformation of net.minecraft.class_1661 failed

open socket
#

yeahh, i had that even before all this and nothing hhappen

#

ill remove it

#

is there something else maybe?

distant wedge
#

Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.hamarb123.macos_input_fixes.ModOptions

#

I think that mod is causing the crash.

open socket
#

macos input fixes?

#

ill try rq

distant wedge
#

macos_input_fixes

#

Oh maybe this is a client-only mod:

[22:00:34] [main/WARN]: Error loading class: com/hamarb123/macos_input_fixes/ModOptions (java.lang.RuntimeException: Cannot load class com.hamarb123.macos_input_fixes.ModOptions in environment type SERVER)

#

Also

[22:00:30] [main/WARN]: launchTarget: SERVER. Crash Assistant is client only mod. Mod will do nothing!

open socket
#

i took out macos and the herobrine and now its starting, just waiting for it to run

#

how long does it take to start running, its been about 2 min it says

distant wedge
#

It took 7 seconds to crash. 🙂

#

What does the log say now?

open socket
#

oh did it crash again

#

ill check

distant wedge
#

No the first time.

open socket
#

ohh yeah ur right lol

#

its just 3 min into starting, nothing yet

#

i just feel like it started faster usually

#

i tried restarting after like 5 min, would there be new logs?

distant wedge
#

Should be

#

You can download latest.log and then drag&drop here

open socket
#

im stuck on starting now a think, a step in the right direction tho

distant wedge
#

That log doesn't show a crash, and none of the messages in it scream "broken" to me. It ran for 17 seconds and looked ok. If it is hanging somewhere, you'll probably need to get BH staff involved.

open socket
#

no yeah its not stopping anymore, just in a loop of starting

distant wedge
#

What is the Console showing?

#

is there a current crash-report?

open socket
#

this is all thats there as of now

#

after a little bit it seems like the cpu load just drops off and it runs dead

distant wedge
#

Failed to start the minecraft server
java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not execute entrypoint stage 'main' due to errors, provided by 'particle-effects' at 'net.lopymine.pe.ParticleEffects'!

open socket
#

is that a mod particle effects?

distant wedge
#

Particle-effects sounds like client stuff. Let's see if there's a client mod

open socket
#

i see a mod for particle effects in the mods folder

#

remove?

distant wedge
#

Yeah for the moment.

open socket
#

i deleted it, 2 min in still starting

#

i might just have to do a sort of fresh wipe

#

cause idk whats wrong with the server

#

can i just do a fresh install of better mc on the server but keep my world?

#

and then just readd my mods

#

cause that might work?

distant wedge
#

It's always risky wiping the mods for an existing world, because some mods do stuff to the world that makes bad stuff happen if the mod is later removed. But to answer your question: make a backup of your world, then do the reinstall of BMC4. I think the world is retained.

open socket
#

i dont think the mods ever actually loaded into the server world since it never ran so that shouldnt be an issue? if i wanted to do a fresh server would i just delete the current one and make a new one?

#

and how do i get a backup if i cant login to it

#

in the world files?

distant wedge
#

Sure. Deleting everything and re-installing would make everything fresh.

#

Backups are done from the server console. And you don't want Minecraft running while that happens anyway

open socket
#

do you know what to type to save it?

#

im gonna try and get that fresh restart done

distant wedge
#

I'm going to be. Good luck!

But yeah, put BMC4 on fresh, add the mods, remove client-only mods, get it to run on a scratch world, then re-upload your existing world isn't the worst plan.
