    okzerus lost connection: Internal Exception: io.netty.handler.codec.DecoderException: java.io.IOException: Packet 0/45 (CSpectatePacket) was larger than I expected, found 38 bytes extra whilst reading packet 45


    I have the RandomPatches, RecipeBuffers and Performant installed. Getting kicked from a server instantly after join, can't even see the world.
    Tried server restarting, minecraft restarting, world regenerating, connect through DynIP (just saw in another thread issue with another packet thinking that this will work)

    Remove the mods one by one from your server.

    Every time you remove a mod from your server, you need to restart it, then check if the problem still occurs.


    If the problem doesn't occur anymore, know that it was probably due to the mod you last removed.


    Always be sure to have a backup of your server before changing anything. This video might help you:
