I am trying to start a new server and downloaded the executable from minecraft's website. I ran it, opened the eula text file to change it from false to true but when I run it again I just get the server window that opens up. No text saying that it is loading or that there are any errors happening. Anyone have any idea on what to do? Below is the what the log files are telling me.

If you are using the exe, then it is a known issue that it remains blank. Use the jar instead.
Cast aside your festive doylaks: dragon stuff is about to happen.
Multiplayer is lonely once you understand how it actually works.
