Some Common Problems You May Encounter with Modpacks

While adding the Mods to the existing Modpacks, you may encounter some problems along the way which may be difficult to process. Some of the issues are:

1. Missing Mods list

If you are having this problem, it may be a result of the incompatibility of versions. The new mods you downloaded in your libraries folder are not compatible with the version of your Minecraft. Confirm that the version of the new mods you are adding has the version number that can be matched with your server.

Check if the mod can support the service so as not to encounter any issue that may want to arise. If you are certain of the compatibility and you still find the mod to be missing, there might be other errors, you can check the mod’s comments pages online to see what others are complaining about, you can get a potential solution from there.

2. Index Error

Check the configuration files of the new mods you downloaded. It may be the cause, confirmed by deleting the present configuration files of the new mods and starting the Modpacks all over again to see if a new configuration will be generated.

If you observe that it is still the same configuration, open a support ticket on your server for error details and input the mod author, it will supply the error source.
