I am using a Linux Ubuntu 22.04.1 machine.
I am trying to start a forge server on 1.18.2 forge 40.1.73. I am able to download the installer and everything perfectly fine. I have been following an online guide since I am not well versed in Linux myself.
My issue is running the server jar installation.
This is everything that occurs after I use "java -jar forge-1.18.2-40.1.73-installer.jar"
java.io.FileNotFoundException: forge-1.18.2-40.1.73-installer.jar.log (Permission denied)

Failed to download version manifest, can not find server jar URL.
I have checked previous forums and cannot seem to find a similar issue.
The only thing of note is that the guide specifically says to copy the forge jar file from the downloads folder to wherever you intend to put it, and I moved it instead of copying.
I have wiped this machine multiple times and have been unsuccessful every time thus far. I have noticed that if I move the installer jar to the .minecraft folder, then I works fine. So it leaves me thinking there's some dependency I could copy out of the .minecraft folder to get it to work? But I genuinely do not know.
Thanks in advance for any help.
