Forge Server crashes on startup - Failed to resolve consumer event type: net.minecraftforge.fml.network.simple.SimpleChannel

[MathewAlden]

I used the installer to install a Forge 1.16.4-35.1.4 server. I have not added any mods to the server. The first time I launched the server jar, it generated the eula file like normal. I accepted the eula and launched the server again. The server crashed with the error "Failed to resolve consumer event type: net.minecraftforge.fml.network.simple.SimpleChannel". 

I am running Java 11. Specifically, when I run "java -version" it returns:

java version "11.0.9" 2020-10-20 LTS
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.9+7-LTS)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.9+7-LTS, mixed mode)

 

Here is a copy of my latest.log file: https://pastebin.com/GxcBCU14

Does anyone have any idea how to solve this? I know older versions of Forge threw this error when running on Java 9+, but I think newer versions of Forge are compatible with Java 11?
