Those are the same, pretty much. I would try an earlier version of Jmol --
11.8, perhaps -- just to see if it is something that is new to Jmol or not.
Some previous versions are in
http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11 -- just look for files like
Jmol-11_8.zip. If those don't work, it's something with your installation.
Oh --- do try these with 12.0 or 12.1:
java -jar Jmol.jar -h
[should list help]
java -Xmx512m -jar Jmol.jar -n
[should print some info and exit]

This one requires display capabilities of your Java -- can't be done on some
servers unless the graphics have been set up correctly.

I'm guessing only that last one will fail for you. Then you need to talk
with someone to get the graphics set up on that workstation.
