Forge 1.12.2 installer not working properly

[MiniTheMan]

I'm trying to install Forge for 1.12.2. The installer runs properly and says it installed forged succesfully, but when I go into the launcher there is no Forge profile and forge isn't in the version list when cresting a custom profile. In the versions folder in .minecraft the forge 1.12.2 folder is there, but it only has the .json file, it seems that the installer is not actually getting the .jar file. I tried with both the recommended and latest installers. I also tried downloading the universal .jar directly and pasting it into the versions folder but that didn't work either.

 

Installer log:
JVM info: Oracle Corporation - 1.8.0_371 - 25.371-b11
java.net.preferIPv4Stack=true
Found java version 1.8.0_371

I am unable to replicate this.

Regardless, the version you are using is no longer supported on this forum.

Please update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support.

Currently, supported versions are 1.19.4 (Latest) and 1.18.2 (LTS).
