How to read a server console without guessing
Startup, ready, warning and fatal look alike at a glance. Telling them apart is most of what support does.

The console is the server telling you exactly what happened, and it is the first thing we ask for because it is almost always sufficient. Reading it is a skill worth twenty minutes.
Find the ready line first
Every server prints something when it has finished starting - 'Done (11.402s)!' in Minecraft, a bound address elsewhere. If that line exists, the server started and your problem is after it. If it does not, everything printed is startup and the last few lines are the reason it stopped.
Severity, in order
- INFO - narration. Almost never the problem, however alarming it sounds.
- WARN - something is wrong but survivable. Worth reading, rarely worth panicking about.
- ERROR - an operation failed. The server may still be running.
- FATAL - the reason it is not running any more.
Read upward from the failure
The last line is where it gave up, not where it went wrong. The cause is usually 10-40 lines above, and it is the first line that names something you installed rather than something the game ships with.
Paste the fifty lines before the failure, not the last one. The last line is the least informative part of any crash.
