Im am currently trying to create my own modded server to play on with my friends but I am having trouble loading the modded version of the server.
I have the vanilla server running without any problems and my friends can join, but when I try launching the forge-1.16.5-36.1.0.jar server it shows the loading icon next to my cursor for a second and than does nothing I have been looking for awnsers for a few days now and have not been able to find a working solution
when I tried launching the forge server after using the installer it only created the logs folder

Only when I use the minecraft_server.1.16.5.jar it generates the other files
Now when I try launching the forge server it still does the exact same thing and it does not generate any files, or even the mods folder
When I try launching the forge server from start.bat I get the following errors, and can not find an explanation as to why this is happening

I would really appreciate every possible solution as this has already cost me too long to figure out
