I just bought and install Minecraft 1.8.3. I then ran it and started a new world, saved and exited.
I then downloaded installer for Forge 11.14.1.1337, and ran it. It tells me I need to run 1.8 first, and exits. I have verified its path to minecraft is correct, /Users/adam/Library/Application Support/minecraft.
The installer does not generate any log file that I've been able to find.
Here is the "latest" log from Minecraft:
