Make sure to install the 1.17+ version of Forge from the official Forge website, as well as checking the versions of the mods you download.




Once the installer has finished, navigate to the folder you had selected. Make sure to open the eula.txt file and set this to true. Then run the .bat file, typically titled "run" and it'll run a Forge server on your local machine.
