Hello, when I want to open a forge 1.12.2 server in a VPS it shows me the following error

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

Try running it with Java 8.
Forge 1.12.2 only supports up to JDK 8.
Hope this helps :)

If you have more Java version installed on your Server, you can force the server to use a specific version:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre/bin/java -Xmx5G -jar forge.jar
