launcher.java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

[typicalname]

Hello. I've used to host on my normal main computer.

I wanted to move to a Amazon AWS (EC2) server because it was faster.

 

I am currently running on Ubuntu.

The error is right below.

A problem occurred running the Server launcher.java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

Yes, I have looked at other people's posts. They had the same issue, but they fixed it by having this "minecraft_server.1.7.10.jar" 

I do have the same file as them, but it still does not work. I am pretty sure I do not have any missing files.

I have used the installer, and used this command:

java -jar forge-1.7.10-10.13.4.1614-1.7.10-installer.jar --installServer

If you can help, please reply.

Sorry. 1.7.10 is no longer supported on this forum due to its age.

Update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support.
