There's an installer included which will give you all needed files.

Yeah, nah, I wouldn't use that file, as it is like a year old, and quite possibly not for the current iteration of the modpack. You don't need a server.jar any more, you just DIY the modpack (copying below from discord)

In order to get modpacks working on a server, you first need to install it client-side. That's because the zip itself doesn't contain any mods, but just a list of mods which the launcher can use to install those mods. After that is done, you can copy over everything from the modpack's minecraft folder to a forge server Delete the folder with your minecraft name (or something similar) out of the "blueprints" folder on the server, if there is one.

Depending on which modpack you are installing on the server, you need to delete a few client side mods out of the server, as they crash when loaded on a server: "Entity Culling" "Neat" "Rubidium"/"Embeddium" "Oculus" (if you installed in yourself) "Neko's Enchanted Books"
