How Do I Turn Curseforge Single Player World Into Server World?

Hello,
I'm trying to make a server for me and my friends to all play on, the problem is I wanted to turn my current single player world into the server, however when I turn on server.jar it tells me that it can not find or read the world data and overwrites it.

At first, I followed all the proper steps to set up a basic server file, though I'm having some trouble getting the curseforge mods working I think I can fix that myself, then I looked up how to transition a single player world into a server world. Every single guide I saw said to find the save file, put it in in place of the other world file, and either rename it to world or edit the server properties file to search for it instead.
I've tried multiple times to get this to work, with editing the properties file and then when I gave up and restarted the whole process with changing the file name to world.
However, it can not seem to read this data. My best guess is this is because it's a save file from curseforge, and perhaps the formatting is different enough to fuck it up? I don't know, I really don't know.
I got upset and deleted all of that, then tried to use a server installer mod I found on forge to help, but I fucked something up with that too and wound up deleting that try as well. However, I can get back to where I was in the first few paragraphs with relative ease as now I'm very familiar with getting server.jar, running a bat, and so on.

I really need help or advice, Ideally an up-to-date and helpful guide on how to set this up- or even just screenshots of what I'm meant to do I can go off of, I wanted to get this up and working while we're all interested still.
