  • Background: So I made a datapack that gives custom crafting recipes for tridents, name tags, and shulker shells, and whenever I run the server the datapack won't work. It doesn't show up when I do /datapack list, but when I start up the server (and also when I do /datapack list) it shoots this message in console:


    [16:27:01] [Server thread/WARN]: Couldn't get pack info for: aeo: 'pack.mcmeta' in ResourcePack './world/datapacks/Sub to Furrgit.zip'


    For some reason, it seems to be identifying the pack as a resource pack instead of a datapack. I am pretty confident I did everything correctly though in pack.mcmeta.


    Details:

    Server is 1.18.1

    Datapack zip file in in datapack folder in Worlds


    pack.mcmeta text file:


    {

    "pack": {

    "pack_format": 8,

    "description": "subscribe to furrgit"

    }

    }



    Idk what the problem is, please help!
