I am using MCProHosting to run a server, and I am trying to get Forge Essentials to run on it. Nothing I do can seem to stop my server from crashing. FE is the only mod I currently have running, yet this crashing continues. I am pretty sure I have both the most up-to-date version of both Forge and Forge Essentials.

You appear to be missing the hibernate library, it should be in the libraries directory.

I went into the Forge Essentials /lib and I see these four:

-h2-1.3.175.jar     
-hibernate-core-5.2.2.Final.jar     
-mysql-connector-java-5.1.22.jar    
-pircbotx-2.0.1.jar

There should be a lot more libraries in there than that. Also, why do they have a hyphen at the beginning?

I added that, sorry. Is there a reason those libraries aren't there? I haven't run this with other mods yet. And I cannot have a player enter a world because the server will not start.

I don't know, but try removing the FE directory and starting from scratch. It should extract them then.

Yep, that should work.

Still no luck, it will keep crashing. I am going to post the console from the initial attempt to start to the crash

http://pastebin.com/qGFxHRAM

The link is fixed, it should include the entire console from start to crash

That log lacks line breaks and is unreadable, and it's not helpful anyways. FE isn't extracting the libraries for reasons unknown. The only thing I can think to blame is your host, so ask them about it.

Would it be possible to find the libraries as a download to see if that would fix it?

You could start a server on your computer and have it extract the libraries there, then upload them to your host.

I'll try that and post what happens

No Luck, I am getting the same problem as before, it only loads those 4 libraries. This is the crash report I received from my server I hosted on my computer.

I just tried. It is telling me that the libraries.zip is corrupt

Looks like the file you downloaded is corrupt. Download it again. That will probably fix your issue.

I finally got it to work. I had downloaded FE about 8 times, and I just got the first non-corrupted one. For some reason, if I left the window while it was downloading, the download would end up failing. When I tried to retry the download, I would get the corruption. Thanks for the help!

I will never understand some of the weird corruption issues people have when downloading things.

Alright, you need to do it manually.

Open the FE jar with your favourite archiver, there should be a zip called libraries.zip inside.

Extract that to your server folder.
