netty IO gives error about mod list not matching

[deadlypants2]

Pack Version: 3.4.11 Pack Mode: Normal Singleplayer, Multiplayer, or LAN?: minecraft forge server on windows server 2022

Description:

When starting up the server, a error keeps coming up about every 30 seconds. It looks like the server starts up normaly and im able to join but my logging is being cloged up by messages about Netty IO disconnecting players. This message shows up even though nobody is trying to join my server. Is this message intended or is there something wrong with my server?

Steps to reproduce:

Start up the server with the server files from Curse forge.

How are you connecting to the server? The server is running fine, its your client that isn't.

[deadlypants2]

im joining the server through direct connect. but the message only apears server side and not on my client.

Do you have access to the mods in singleplayer?

[deadlypants2]

i have access to the mods in both single and multiplayer on the server

[Cazadorsniper]

Well the error is saying that you don't have forge installed.

[Cazadorsniper]

What are you using to start the client? Curseforge Launcher?

[deadlypants2]

yes, Curse forge. This is also how i got the server tools

[Cazadorsniper]

Try reinstalling everything and make sure forge and mod versions matchup.

i tried reinstalling the server pack but i get the same error within my CMD window

[Cazadorsniper]

Idk what is causing this issue, maybe try it on your pc instead of the windows server, just to see if the message continues to pop up.

[deadlypants2]

i installed the sderver pack and the same version of java on my pc but here i do not get the error

[Cazadorsniper]

Which means something is going wrong with the windows server and I can't help with that.
