Posted July 19, 20205 yr hi, I'm running the latest version of Ubuntu. I tried to install a Minecraft forge server running 1.14.4 forge version 28.2.0. everything went well and i got to the stage where you set the eula to true. That's when my issues began. I ran the minecraft (vanilla) jar using the following command in the terminal: java -jar (insert name of the minecraft jar here) and yes, i made that () to make it easier to read. i inserted the actual minecraft jar without parentheses. it ran perfectly well and i even got onto my minecraft installed on the same machine and joined using localhost. after seeing everything was fine in vanilla i quit minecraft and tried to launch the forge version in the exact same way (keep in mind there are no mods in the mods folder) which is when i got the following output: https://pastebin.com/wPvrqkKL PLEASE HELP IF YOU KNOW ANYTHING THAT MIGHT HELP!! this is driving me crazy seeing as i used this exact same jar file on my windows computer and successfully ran a forge server even with the mods installed and tested it on localhost with no issues. thanks for the help!!
July 19, 20205 yr I believe that 1.14.4 Forge is incompatible with Java 9+. Try installing Java 8 (from AdoptOpenJDK) and using that for running Forge. Vanilla Minecraft, thought it is not officially supported, does run on Java 9+. However, Forge 1.14 uses a complicated system that isn't compatible with Java 9+, because of the things needed to allow Forge to run.
