Help setting up a forge server

[NerdyGekko]

I have been trying to setup a forge 1.12.2 server just to play with some friends and have used the installer downloaded from the official website to install the server files. However when I try to run the forge.jar from a bat file I get this error

C:\Users\User\OneDrive\Servers\Forge01>java -Xms2G -Xmx4G -jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2859.jar nogui
