I'm recently updating my current snapshot server. It was a 21w19a snapshot world. It's been doing this before I keep updating forward. It's probably trying not to load the world files to prevent the server/game from crashing- but I have a backup so I'm not sure what's wrong. The world was also created on the 21w19a snapshot jar.
Here's the crash log from the console:

(Sorry if this looks messy. I'll send an image of this crash log just incase this typed out format is a little bit eye straining.)
I don't know what could possibly be causing this. All I can guess is that it has to do something with the 'unrecognizable class file version' statement. However, even then I'm still confused as to what that means. I'm using the proper jar file that the minecraft.net page offered.

If you have any idea why this is happening or if there's a similar issue with a solution for this, let me know. This is as much info as I can give.

This server isn't hosted or running in a folder or directory on my computer. It's hosted on a separate online hosting service. Should I contact them instead of here? I also had an issue earlier before this that loaded the server as a 21w19a jar instead of a 21w20a jar. I saw the issue where the server jar isn't correct on the minecraft.net page (I think)- so perhaps that might be the problem? Here's what I'm referring to: MC-225906
Update: Sorry- wrong answer- Yes, I do have that development kit! Whoops.
Do you have Java SE Development Kit 16 downloaded to your computer?
