Dedicated Server - cannot start with any mods enabled
Solved
Hi!
i'm experiencing an issue where dedicated server startup fails if any mods are enabled; when all mods are removed from the configuration in Sandbox_config.sbc the same server starts up.
Note that the same world with same mods works fine if i use the multiplayer integrated into the game (not dedicated).
This occurs in the following environments:
1. A "normal" win10 installation via steam and the DS-GUI application
2. For completeness this also happens in a linux docker / wine setup. This is where i would like to get the server running as i do not have a windows server.
Log file segment:

Hello, Engineer.
Sorry to hear you're experiencing issues.
As step 1, let's verify that the mods and platform match. Are you using Steam or EOS networking type? It's displayed at the bottom of the General tab in DSGUI. What platform are mods from? You can check in the mods tab, Steam mods are assigned as "Steam:id" and Mod.io mods are "mod.io:id".
Both mod.io and Steam mods are available on the Steam networking type, only mod.io mods are available on EOS.
If those parameters match, please submit a full DS log file and a world you're attempting to load(full folder as a .zip)
