Recently, the Java version recommendations for Minecraft became more strict
For Minecraft <1.17, Java 11 is recommended. Minecraft 1.17 won't start without Java 16 (or newer). Minecraft 1.18 won't start without Java 17 (or newer).

You definitely are going to be paying if you're allocating 96GB of memory.

yeah thats what i thought too

Maybe not this month, but you will end up paying. That's why they require a credit card added. Incase you allocate more resources than they give for free.

Try terminate the VPS., then create new one with ubuntu and install on it pterodactyl, it will work and will be easier
