Failed to download version manifest, can not find client jar URL.

In order to root out one of the more common issues, we'll need to see your hosts file. Here's the steps to getting this file.

1) Press the Win + R key on your keyboard.

2) Paste the following into the prompt that opens: 'notepad %windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts'

3) Use Ctrl+A to select everything in the file, then Ctrl+C into the textbox to post to this thread.

Found java version 1.8.0_51

Upgrade your java. The version you are using has expired trust certificates.

Boilerplate:

If you don't post your logs/debug.log we can't help you. For curseforge you need to enable the forge debug.log in its minecraft settings. You should also post your crash report if you have one.

If there is no error in the log file and you don't have a crash report then post the launcher_log.txt from the minecraft folder. Again for curseforge this will be in your curseforge/minecraft/Install

Large files should be posted to a file sharing site like https://gist.github.com  You should also read the support forum sticky post.
