Above is my entire Modoverrides.lua.  For some reason, my server isn't enabling the mods.  I don't know what's wrong with it; my friend doesn't know what's wrong with it.  Also, how would I create configs for other mods?  I copy/pasted from the mod maker for Fix Multiplayer.  Additional set pieces especially needs working configs.

[Gelatous]

Is your modoverrides.lua file in the same directory as your settings.ini file? You will need a modoverrides.lua in both your overworld and caves directory if you are hosting two worlds.

 

As for the mod configuration, you can find a great deal about them if you go into each individual mod's modinfo.lua file and search for configuration_options

[Kam297]

go to the directory modoverrides.lua is in and open your log.txt. up in the top 40ish lines it will might tell you that your server is having a problem reading your modoverrides.lua. can you confirm this and/or post your log?
This error is most likely caused by incorrect... formatting I suppose the word is. I'll post my modoverrides so you can compare them side by side.
 
so. In a table it's important to NOT put a comma after the last entry. It might seem trivial but a single comma at the end of a table will cause your modoverrides not to load. Also there was a problem with how your tables are set (really weird formatting so I cant realllyyy tell what's wrong, at first glance It seems like an extra bracket {}) up so compare them to mine and see if you can tell how they should be formatted correctly.
Maybe also check this out if you're still having problems. http://dont-starve-game.wikia.com/wiki/Guides/Don’t_Starve_Together_Dedicated_Servers#Mods

Thank you so much.  I think I'm going to make a video guide on all the stupid little things that can completely wreck your dedicated server soon.  I know many people would need it.

[KitcheVadimas]

So, I moved my mod overrides.luas to the proper folders, and they still aren't enabling.  

The log says "[00:00:09]: ERROR: Failed to load modoverrides.lua, "  which is oh, so helpful.  Something's wrong with my code.  What, you may ask?  I have no idea.   I made as close as possible to the guide's example, and it's STILL not working.

Holy mother of coding!  I finally got a modoverrides.lua to work!!!  I used 

Kam297's provided lua as a base, then copied in Fix multiplayer's Modoverrides.lua for configs.  Only problem is that those are the only configs I got working.  Now, where did I screw up on the other mod configs?

@KitcheVadimas, I'm so glad to hear you got it working!! It took me like 2 days to get my modoverrides.lua set up so I made it a personal thing to help you out I was halfway through a long edited post of the first post I made but my browser crashed and I lost it

oh well mostly what I was trying to post was this example pastebin

http://pastebin.com/vvBB5ERd

just took me a while to get ahang of these forums.

Well that link is the formatting I use, I feel like it's the least confusing it can get which is important because little little things will mess it up. Have a good one, merry late Christmas from a fellow survivor

 

Edit: with the help of the chrome back arrow and the detriment of me being to lazy to make a pastebin account I found the paste where I highlighted (some of?) the small issues in your modoverrides.lua. It's the little stuff that gets you.

Edit:Edit: I also just noticed from the post above you took the formatting to heart <3 happy surviving

[sirhcwarrior]

the formatting is a BEAR. i've been trying to configure Infinite Tent Uses and now Magic Pouch for quite awhile; i'll try something, find out it won't load again, realize i must be missing a "}" in there somewhere, and leave off, disgusted. i've gone through multiple times, and i'm about to try Magical Pouch again. i've given up on the Tent, for now. thanks for the sample lua links, and i think the video on how to modify the configuration table in a modoverrides.lua is an AWESOME idea.
