I am trying to set up a modified direwolf20 1.12 2.10 server in an ubuntu vm i set up on unraid. I've got McMyAdmin up and running but since i am a relative noob to Linux i didn't think and i made the server files on my windows pc and then copied them over to my VM. The server will begin to start up but i get exceptions that kill it before it can fully start. So i went and did more research trying to do it the proper way dl and got the ftb launcher running in Linux i am running it as root and the download server button does absolutely nothing whatsoever the terminal doesn't even acknowledge that i tried to do anything on the launcher. I have successfully launched and downloaded the mod pack client files but the server file button nothing. Not sure if it's a bug or something i've done. I assume it's not a permissions since everything else worked. I can't find a manual dl link address for the files outside of the windows versions...I assume they are incompatible..or will it work if i decompress and do the install in linux.
Problem Trying to download server files from linux launcher.

That's perfectly fine to do.
Please share full log, use paste.feed-the-beast.com and share the link to the log.
You should not be running as root, create a non root account and run it with that.
Not really sure what you're doing here - can you explain, or share a screenshot.
Yes this ill work
First fokus on getting the server to run without McMyAdmin - and when you got that sorted, you can focus on that part. If you got issues with McMyAdmin you should contact them for support for that part.
Thanks for the advice took me a few hours but i got it up and running. Been going well for almost a day. Ran into some snags when i replaced the mods folder had to reinstall the server to correct the hash error fail i am guessing and then the fml confirm for missing stuff which i couldn't get to run on the mcmyadmin console but did when i ran the serverstart.sh by itself then transferred the files back over to the mcmyadmin server folder. But between your advice and a few hours of just fiddling and thinking through it works so thank you. If not for a very few features I'd rather have forgone mcmyadmin it's a hassle and the resource monitor doesn't seem to work in my vm or remotely. Seems that everything lags way behind except the console.
What are the features you're after?
I don't run mcmyadmin, just run scripts with some cronjobs (scheduled task to trigger commands).
Is it a dedicated vm for the minecraft server, or do you have other stuff there as well?
Who is the hoster, and what's the specs on the vm?
Sorry for the long wait i am not getting notified when i get replies on my email and hadn't been back to check til now.
I use McMyAdmin pretty much for the scheduler for backups setup etc and to set up the start and stop times. Also It's easier to remote in off my pc's browser than remote into my unraid's interface, then into my vm's interface, then issuing commands. It saves a few steps. And i've never really done my own scripts or ever looked up what cronjobs are ( though the name does give a hint at that ) My Linux experience is more of a what do i wanna do look up a tutorial follow it step by step and when i get in trouble google-fu some more. I've learned a little but it's very limited in scope. I've seen them mentioned but hadn't really got to that point of fooling around yet, still trying to get dynmapforge to render despite it thinking it is....anyway If money wasn't an issue i'd probably be running a windows vm instead but this saves on ram usage, make transferring files over harder since all my shares are SMB and enabling NFS didn't work so i have to figure that out now too, but it's free.
As far as the vm it's just for Minecraft i have a dedicated half of my 6 core and 9 gigs of ram. 8 of which is running java. just me and my wife on the server for now. I really only use the box for plex, processing my dvd rips, file backup and now this. I was trying to run a voip server for some friends but it kept resetting and locking me out every few weeks (rather annoying)

First tip: please use paragraphs in your text. (It still early morning but I'm struggling if I should all the lines or not)
But the big thing: Server files in https://www.feed-the-beast.com/projects/ftb-presents-direwolf20-1-12/files/2591333#additional-files and in legacy FTB Launcher should be 100% identical files. Just run unzip file, run FTBInstall.bat

So can you use other tools to talk directly with the server? In my case I use Putty for console command and WinSCP for transferring files. WinSCP is nice because it uses the windows drag and drop features. So I can setup the server on my PC make sure it is working then use WinSCP to copy the entire thing up to my server. Then the only part I need to get working on the server is the scripting and cron to run it.
Sorry about that i tend to rant a bit when i am tired, thanks for the link
Unraid uses a webpage interface for it's remote usage anywhere in my network it's pretty easy. It even allowed me to run my linux vm in a webpage on my smartphone. Not console generally necessary until i need to do stuff while in linux. Also running mcmyadmin in the linux vm makes it remoteable from my pc as well. I don't mind the idea of using the console at all i just don't feel confident enough in linux and with scripts to do it without step by step guides.
