I did everything correctly. I'm trying to setup a server on google cloud (I want to host it on google cloud don't suggest other sites please) 1. Downloaded the installer from http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven/net/minecraftforge/forge/index_1.12.2.html 2. Used this to install the server java -jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2854-installer.jar --installServer 3. I now have those files in the directory 1.12.2.json forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2854-installer.jar.log libraries forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2854-installer.jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2854.jar minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar 4. I use this on minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar to install the rest of the files java -jar minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar nogui 5. I now have those files in the directory 1.12.2.json forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2854-installer.jar.log logs eula.txt forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2854.jar minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2854-installer.jar libraries server.properties 6. I accept the eula.txt 7. There is no forge universal file like in literally all the tutorials i've seen so this is what happens when I try to run minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar: The server runs normally but it's vanilla and even if I create a mods folder and insert mods inside nothing happens forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2854.jar: It throws this at me A problem occurred running the Server launcher.java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException at java.base/jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at java.base/jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) at java.base/jdk.internal.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.base/java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:566) at net.minecraftforge.fml.relauncher.ServerLaunchWrapper.run(ServerLaunchWrapper.java:70) at net.minecraftforge.fml.relauncher.ServerLaunchWrapper.main(ServerLaunchWrapper.java:34) Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: class jdk.internal.loader.ClassLoaders$AppClassLoader cannot be cast to cl ass java.net.URLClassLoader (jdk.internal.loader.ClassLoaders$AppClassLoader and java.net.URLClassLoader are in mod ule java.base of loader 'bootstrap') at net.minecraft.launchwrapper.Launch.<init>(Launch.java:34) at net.minecraft.launchwrapper.Launch.main(Launch.java:28) ... 6 more for both the command is java -Xmx7G -Xms1G -jar [filename] nogui I've been trying for 4 hours so far, I tried re-installing the server multiple times, I tried updating java, I tried deleting and re-installing java.
