Downgrade java to a previous version, 8.311 should work (instead of 8.321 that you have now)

Redownload the server pack and start using the start.bat - make sure it's not in a folder that's in the onedrive folder structure.

If it still fails, please paste full log using https://paste.feed-the-beast.com and share the link here.

I had this exact same problem, and I assumed it was a Java or a mod pack problem, which it wasn't. After many hours I found out its a forge problem.

So, heres how I fixed my server.

1. Downloaded the latest forge installer for my version (1.16.5-36.2.30 in my case)
2. Ran the installer, told it to 'Install Server' and selected my minecraft server folder.
3. Once it had installed the latest version of forge, editted the line in the start.bat file to use the latest version. Changed from forge-1.16.5-36.2.23.jar to forge-1.16.5-36.2.30.jar in my case.
4. Ran start.bat, everything worked.

Hope this helps someone else.
