The following crypticle appears on our server's console when it tries to load Phosphor
[Server thread/ERROR]: 'plugins/phosphor-fabric-mc1.16.1-0.6.0+build.7.jar' in folder 'plugins'

The mod/plugin works fine when loaded client-side (yay!), but our Paperspigot/Paperclip server seems to think that something's missing from the plugin's jar.
Phosphor is a Fabric mod. It doesn't work on Bukkit/Spigot/Paper servers, hence why your server is confused. You need a Fabric Server installation, which means you can't carry over your existing plugins.
