Minecraft server 1.12 runs fine but when I update the server jar file to 1.13, I get these errors. I've looked everywhere but can't seem to find this exact error online.

Deleting the server.properties and restarting the server fixed the issue. Apparently something in the older version of that file was incompatible with the latest version of minecraft_server.1.13.jar. It is now working perfectly and I was able to add back in the settings from the old server.properties file.
