Im running my own small server with Mindcrack pack and I just updated to the latest pack and now No mobs are spawning..

I checked the config is was set to 1 which is easy but mobs should still spawn.. So I changed it to 3 for hard and still No mobs spawning..

At night on the server its empty there are no mobs anwhere..

The properties file looks fine, spawn mobs is set to true..

WHat is going on here?

The only extra mobs I have installed are, Additional pipes, mystcraft, bibliocraft and Forge essentials

First, type this: "/gamerule doMobSpawning" and see if it comes back as TRUE or FALSE.

If it IS set as FALSE, type this: "/gamerule doMobSpawning true", which will enable spawn.

Did you disable Mo Creatures recently? That is where I see this issue usually.

Have you somehow filled up Minecraft's spawn limit?

EDIT: Ninja'd. Yes. Those would be more likely

This can be tested by typing this: "/gamerule doMobSpawning false", and then "/gamerule doMobSpawning true". That will remove all mobs, and then start allowing them to spawn again. But normally filling the spawn limit fixes itself as mobs don't stick around too long if they aren't near to the player.

Thanks man, That was it I typed in false first then true and bam the mobs came back.. What would have caused that to happen?

Anything that disables vanilla spawning, such as a better spawn control mod, or mo creatures, etc.
