So I have two worlds, one named oldworld and the other named world. The oldworld is the "default" that gets loaded when you start a new server (i renamed it) and world is the current one my wife plays on with her friends. I can load world just fine but oldworld doesn't work. I changed the setting in server.properties so it would use oldworld and it didn't work.
Create change that from 777, down to 755, zero reason to run with full elevated rights. That is a very dangerous thing to do especially if your server is published to the WEB.
You can instead put the 2nd user that is accessing the server in a special group that gives them access to java.
Create # of users you wish to run how ever many servers you want to use, than create a group for those users to access java and the server location.
I'm on Ubuntu 18.04 using server version 1.14.

Anybody know what might be going on?
What happens instead?
Pastebin of working world
Pastebin of not working world
Basically the world tries to launch, processor and ram usage start to increase, and then just stops.
This might be the issue?
navigate to the directory in terminal and use chmod 777 session.lock

I did that and now it's hanging and giving me a different error. Do I need to do the same thing?
seems your whole world has bad permissions, run this command from the same directory: chmod -R 777 ./

it's working!
I have been moving directories around a lot so that may have messed up some permissions. I've learned a bit today, thank you!
