That's not fml-server-latest, that's just latest.

Can you send a screenshot of your server's root folder (the one where the server jars are)?

I cant seem to send screenshots the uploads have failed and simple low qual phone pictures dont work either

You're starting it with the forge jar and not the minecraft jar, right?

forge-1.12.2-14.23.4.2705-universal

minecraft-server 1.12.2

You start the forge universal the same way you would start the server

It doesn't open 

[DaemonUmbra 358]

Start it from the command line and show what it spits out

the thing is the jar itself won't open so i cant start it from the commands

[DaemonUmbra 358]

When I say command prompt I mean if you're on Windows use cmd(or Powershell), if you're on a *nix OS or Mac, use a Terminal, navigate to the server's folder and type

java -jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.4.2705-universal.jar -Xmx3G -Xms3G nogui

how would i do that sorry im new at this and google doesnt help i know how to get to cmd but i have no idea how to open it from there

[DaemonUmbra 358]

Ok, I'm not in the mood for a cmd tutorial so let's take a shortcut:

open the server folder in file explorer

click anywhere that won't select a file

hold shift and right click without selecting a file

click open <Command Prompt/Powershell Window> here

 

once you've done that follow the instructions from my previous reply

Saw this same error with someone else the minecraft server jar was getting corrupted when Forge's installer downloaded it, try this:

Try getting the server from Mojang's official site and replace yours with that one Note: Link will start the download from Mojang's servers and you will need to rename it to match what forge is expecting.

Forge is expecting minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar

log4j is a code library embedded in Minecraft, can you still not post a screenshot of the folder your server is in?

from what ive tried no it wont even save to the usual place ever since ive updated to windows 10

[DaemonUmbra 358]

If you use snipping tool you can take the shot, copy, and paste it in here

[DaemonUmbra 358]

Can you take another shot that includes the filesize? it's in one of the columns being squashed into the scrollbar

[DaemonUmbra 358]

Can you take that shot again but first click on View and check the box next to "File Name Extensions"

There's your issue, because you had file extensions hidden you added a .jar to the minecraft server's name then your computer tacked another one on... now that you have them showing you can remove one of them and your computer won't tack on another
