how are you setting the jar to run?

hearty spoke
#

sorry im not super computer savvy tbh

woeful dune
#

you are using shockbyte. how did you configure it to run the modpack

hearty spoke
#

someone was helping me set it up but even they are confused and told me i should make this post...

woeful dune
#

I am not seeing any glaring issues in the stuff you copied to the paste. can you grab the latest.log from the logs folder?

#

oh actually, 1 thing. how many GB are you paying for through shockbyte?

hearty spoke
#

the 8gig "emerald"

woeful dune
#

ok, in your yaml file, make sure maxRam is set lower than that. I suggest trying 6G there

#

if you set it to 8G (the default) it can run out of paid for RAM because java needs ram, too. some server hosts shut off servers that try to exceed that value so that may be whats happening

hearty spoke
#

okay... sorry how do i do that x.x

woeful dune
#

open the server-setup-config.yaml file

#

it is a text file and can be opened in any text editor

hearty spoke
#

looks like max ram is set to 5

#

assuming i am reading that right

#

the latest.log may shed light on whats happening then

#

(or a previous latest.log from the gz files in the logs folder)

hearty spoke
#

the link should have been latest log

woeful dune
#

no, thats a console output log

hearty spoke
#

oh

#

do you want me to just copy and paste the whole thing? theres a lot lol

woeful dune
#

you can paste it there and send the link
or you can upload the latest gz file here

hearty spoke
woeful dune
#

looks like a corrupt torchmaster config

errant idol
#

whats that?

quick plover
#

I am getting the same error

woeful dune
#

session.lock also already exists

#

i would suggest stopping the server and deleting the /world/session.lock file, and then trying to start it again

#

also removing config/torchmaster.toml may help too

hearty spoke
#

so

#

all but the original?

woeful dune
#

you want to remove the original, but you can remove the bak files too

hearty spoke
#

okay

quick plover
#

I removed the torchmaster.toml file and I still am getting the same error

hearty spoke
#

alrighty restarting! hopefully that worked

woeful dune
hearty spoke
#

so how long should this take? like when do i know its not gonna start?

woeful dune
#

the serverstarted mod should post a message shortly after it finishes loading

quick plover
woeful dune
#

thats a completely different error then...

hearty spoke
#

still getting a lot of "skipping recipe" messages

quick plover
#

welp it looked the same via their screenshot

you should see those last 2 (or at least the last one) when it is ready

hearty spoke
#

👍

woeful dune
#

takes my server about 2 minutes to start

woeful dune
#

2nd one shows up before the long list of skipping recipes for me

#

can you connect?

hearty spoke
#

still waiting for it to finish lol

#

al the errors and warnings just went away....

woeful dune
#

if it starts over, grab the latest gz file in logs and if it exists the hs_err file in the main server folder

hearty spoke
#

like if there errors and warnings pop up again?

#

it almost feels like its stuck in a loop of skipping lol

woeful dune
#

if it starts over, you should see ```

#

okay well i havent seen that again so i guess it just feels that way because its taking forever

#

sooo it says server started but also says cant keep up lol

#

seeing if i can get in now

#

do i need to be on neoforge or can i do it from vanilla

errant idol
#

? You need to be in craftoria

hearty spoke
#

so from the cursed forge app?

errant idol
#

Yeah if that's how you open Craftoria normally

hearty spoke
#

oh

#

well thats good to know lmao

woeful dune
#

thats normally a connectivity issue between you and your server. does the server console show the attempted connection?

hearty spoke
#

nope just keeps saying timed out waiting and cant keep up

woeful dune
#

yeah, the cant keep up is completely normal

hearty spoke
#

this should be obvious and i assume im right but when i add serve the ip goes in server address right?

woeful dune
#

yeah

hearty spoke
#

kk just checkin

#

partner just tried from their computer too and gotthe same thing

woeful dune
#

sounds like an issue between you and shockbyte maybe. do they provide just an ip or an ip and port?

#

111.222.333.444:9876

where 111.222.333.444 is the ip and 9876 is the port

hearty spoke
#

ip and port

woeful dune
#

and you entered it just like that in the server address?

hearty spoke
#

should i not be copying the whole thing?

#

yes

woeful dune
#

yeah it should work then

hearty spoke
#

hmmm okay...shockbyte really starting to frustrate the heck outa me lol

woeful dune
#

yeah. are you in the U.S.?

hearty spoke
#

yep

woeful dune
#

yeah, only other thing i can think is to contact shockbyte and see if their support can help

hearty spoke
#

so far they have been useless... honestly thinking we need to get a refund and go somewhere else

woeful dune
#

one of your mod versions doesnt match mine

hearty spoke
#

oh?

#

that weird since it came from the server pack

woeful dune
#

no, its mine that doesnt match. the change wasnt listed in the latest release...

#

just verified that it is there

#

yeah, not your issue lol

hearty spoke
#

oh okay lol

hearty spoke
#

now im getting nothing but warnings

woeful dune
#

it looks like something is causing issues seeing the torchmaster config files
it almost look like the user running it doesnt have the correct permissions
