So I haven't started my server since like January and now I am logging in again, and when I click start, it just starts for a second and then shuts down again. I even went in the server. It brought me in the server for like 1-2 seconds and then put me back in the lobby, and says some error. Yes, I was in the latest version. Is it because something about old servers that is outdated? Please let me know.
