Hello, it looks like you are getting "access denied" on the
chown (change owner) -R (recursively) gwen:gwen (your user:group) the FearNightfall directory
I am guessing you would be able to start the server correctly at that point.
world directory, which is owned by root. You would probably want to chown that directory (and the other directories) to your gwen user instead.sudo chown -R gwen:gwen ~/FearNightfall should do it.chown (change owner) -R (recursively) gwen:gwen (your user:group) the FearNightfall directory
I am guessing you would be able to start the server correctly at that point.
I am assuming you have sudo access to the server itself, you need it in order to chown items currently owned by root. Your regular user permissions would not be able to, very likely.
it worked perfectly, thank you!
