Wait, that's seriously the entire log?

Try running the installer from terminal/command prompt.

[The_stove]

All the same

[Hipposgrumm]

What are your system details? What OS?

Try installing JDK instead of JRE.

[The_stove]

I have Windows 10 I already tried the JDK

[Hipposgrumm]

Try installing another version of java.

[The_stove]

the same

[Hipposgrumm]

Does another version of Forge work?

[The_stove]

No, it does not work

 

 

[Hipposgrumm]

That's all I can do then. I suggest contacting Forge.
