Ok I recently tried to port forward my router for my minecraft server
I asked a friend to test it and he said he gets the error: error: class java.lang.illegal argument.expectation
or something
I was wondering if anyone else can test this for me (Ip: 192.168.2.8:25585) and tell me what they get, and also tell me why my friend got that error when he tried to enter my server

The reason you are having this problem, is because you are giving out the wrong ip to people. 192.168.2.8 is your internal ip address not your external. In order to have people connect to your server you must give them the external ip address which you can find using http://myipaddress.com

So would I put this or my internal as the server IP in the prop file?

I am now for sure. So maybe try again? if you get the same thing tell me
(if you didn't before, use 25585)
