    posted a message on Installing Forge 1.12.2 on an Ubuntu server

    I need some help getting an install of Forge working on an Ubuntu server.


    I'm running Java version 10.0.2:


    > root@ubuntu:~/minecraftforge# java -version
    openjdk version "10.0.2" 2018-07-17


    I ran the following command to install Forge:


    > java -jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2768-installer.jar -installServer


    This seemingly went well and when it was done, I got the following output:


    The server installed successfully, you should now be able to run the file forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2768-universal.jar


    I also noticed that in the same dir, it created a minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar file. However, when I try to run forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2768-universal.jar, I get:


    > root@ubuntu:~/minecraftforge# sudo java -Xmx1024M -jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.5.2768-universal.jar nogui


    I get a launcher.java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException exception as found here: https://pastebin.com/ELX3fnDy


    If I run the normal minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar, that works fine, but I'm not sure that's what I want to do. My goal is to be able to run some mods, and I don't see a mods dir created.


    PS - I'm installing v 1.12.2 because I need it for the Immersive Railroading mod and that needs v 1.12.2.
