Crash at the starting of a server

Hello and thank you for the time you spend to try to help me out,
I wanted to make a server to play with my friends and everything was allright until I decided to add some plug ins so I searched and I saw I could use plug-in and mods if I use sponge, so I downloaded sponge and at the first start it crash with this error:

There is no crash logs in the crash log folder and it’s my very first time with sponge so I don’t know at all how to fix this.
If you could help me I would be very grateful
Btw even if you can’t help me I thank you for spending your time to try to help me

if you want the full console here it is:

Updates:
I’ve renamed Sponge to make it arrive in first in my mod list
I have tested without FoamFix no effects, I updated it no effect neither, and I finally modified the configuration as said in the mod compatibility, no effect at all.
Here is my crash log, something about gremmlins spawned but Idk what it refer to.

Please try using the latest Recommended build of SpomgeForge, instead of release candidates (you have been using spongeforge-1.12.2-2838-7.3.1-RC4093), which may all be broken because Sponge’s Download Indexer is malfunctioning at present.
