Forge Server Not Opening And Providing Necessary Files

[Apollo]

I've tried multiple versions of forge for multiple versions of Minecraft, even 1.12.2.

I've done successful servers before. 

 

Forge servers won't even open the first time to provide me the EULA, Mods folder, server.properties, etc.

The vanilla Minecraft servers work just fine, but the forge one's don't. 

When I click on the forge, the folder just stays like this, and won't give me any more files:

Post any logs you can find, computer specs, how your launching the sever & your java version

@Cadiboo No logs at all. 

 

I don't get why I need computer specs if I've done a server on this device before. 

 

I have Java 8 Update 181.

Is java configured correctly? What does the java version command (in cmd) say? Does the system say why it didn’t work (error message? System log)

Is there any output when running the server from the command line?

How do I run the server from the command line? 

The system doesn't say- nothing happens when I click the forge server. 

 

cmd doesnt tell me my java version.

Run 

“which java”

and

“java -version”

and

”echo $JAVA_HOME”

and post the results.

Run it from command line with

”java -Xmx1G -Xms1G -jar FILE_LOCATION.jar nogui
