Once you have a fully working client pack, making a server is very straight forward. Post a link to the client pack and I'll give suggestions.

Client Pack:

  • You have no config files in your modpack. When trying to make the client work with a server this is always "bad". Without config files in the client there is no way to ensure that the client and server are synchronized with IDs.
  • Never, ever distribute a modpack with an auto ID fixer installed (you have IDFix) when intending to use the pack with a server. It is impossible to ensure that the client and server are synchronized. Additionally, some mods just don't play well with IDFix. It's better to fix conflicts correctly in the respective config files.
  • Once you remove IDFix you will have 3 block ID conflicts and about half a dozen item ID conflicts to resolve (ignore the CandySlab item conflict).

Server Pack:

  • Install Forge or Cauldron (from their respective download sites) into a folder. We'll refer to that folder as SERVER.
  • Copy your config and mods folders (after fixing the IDs and removing IDFix) from your client pack folder to SERVER.
  • Remove SERVERmodsnotenoughkeys-1.6.4-0.0.4.jar
  • Launch server with a command similar to this:
java -Xmx2048m -Xms2048m -XX:PermSize=128m -jar forgeorcauldron.jar nogui

Take note that "forgeorcauldron.jar" is just the name of the JAR file which was installed by the installer you selected in the first Server Pack bullet point.
