Forge crashing minecraft launcher error code 1

[Breyauna Jacobs]

Ive been having a really hard time trying to solve what is causing my minecraft forge to crash when attempting to play, immediately after i press play it crashes. I deleted all my mods and currently have none in my mods folder so i know it has nothing to do with outdated mods or mods in general, its forge. I can still play vanilla minecraft. 

I have done the following:

-reinstalled java

-reinstalled forge

-reinstalled minecraft launcher

-deleting and reinstalling versions of minecraft

-deleting and reinstalling forge for different versions of minecraft

-deleted all mods

-deleted my .minecraft folder then relaunching minecraft before launching forge again

-turning off my firewalls then relaunching minecraft forge

-giving more ram to the installation folder

-changing the java pathway (so it is not using the bundled java)

Im having the same issue and cant find help anywhere and i have done everything you have done also. 

[Breyauna Jacobs]

It is still not working for me too unfortunately, and i have tried reaching out directly to get support from forge off of the curse forge website but they did not help and instead redirected me here again where my problem remains unsolved, id appreciate it if someone could reach out to me and help, as many others i have encountered online are having the same problem .

I was also having this issue, and read elsewhere that it was due to AMD Ryzen graphics drivers needing an update. Updated mine and it took care of the issue for me. Hope this helps for you guys as well. Good luck!!

[Breyauna Jacobs]

I think my graphics drivers are up to date, when i go into settings and search for optional updates my drivers appear to be fully up to date unless im looking in the wrong place

[DogsandCats7429]

Go into .minecraft/logs and find "latest"

Wouldn't be surprised if it says something about a Mod.toml file missing or unexpected schema

As I'm having the same issue and have posted about it twice now with no response

[Breyauna Jacobs]

what should I do if it says theres a file missing or unexpected schema?

[DogsandCats7429]

I dont know, apparently its for the forge team 

[Sandra van Buggenum]

Aah more people with the same issue! Happy to hear I am not alone here, but still no solution ....

What I have done in order:

- Reinstalled java, forge and Minecraft launcher

👉 Still error code 1

 

- Tried different versions of Forge, also mod packs I know have been working

 👉 Still error code 1

 

- Tried Minecraft without Forge

 👉 works without any issue

 

- Check all mods if they are the right compatible versions and have all needed files on the right places

  👉 works without any issue

 

- Deleted and reinstalled versions of Minecraft, java, forge and Minecraft launcher. Tried with several different Forge versions

 👉 Still error code 1

 

- Changing the java pathway, tried with several different Forge versions

  👉 Still error code 1

 

- Deleted all mods and tried with different versions of Forge

 👉 Still error code 1

 

- Gave max ram to the installation folder, tried with several different Forge versions

  👉 Still error code 1

 

- Saw this post and yes, I did have indeed an update on my ASUS ROG STRIX GeForce RTX (Nvidia) card, updated this one, rebooted pc, tried with forge without and with mod and several different versions

   👉 Still error code 1

 

- Check for every single possible update for anything on my pc and updated where there was an update, 

 rebooted pc, tried with forge without and with mod and several different versions

   👉 Still error code 1

 

- Did a reset of my pc ........ 

  tried with forge without and with mod and several different versions

   👉 Still error code 1

 

So yes, I guess I have to stop playing this game .... just now I have made a server for my son to play on together with me .... As there is no issue when forge is not involved it must be something related with forge.

pc specs:

AMD Ryzen 7 3800X 8-Core Processor, 3.89 GHz, 32 MB cache

Installed RAM: 32.0 GB (2x16GB, G.Skill Trident DDR4 3600 MHz)

ASUS ROG STRIX GeForce RTX 3070 Gaming OC 8GB

ASUS ROG STRIX X570-F Gaming

 

And yes, error messages in the log like:

These can be safely ignored, it's not an error.

From top to bottom, this is saying "found the mod loader", "found the java mod support", "found the lowcode mod support (think global datapacks)", "found the game".

JarJar is the name for Forge's jar-in-jar system. Basically, mods can embed dependencies and libraries inside their mod jar. These log messages are saying it already found the required deps as normal jars and will be using those instead of embedded ones, nothing to worry about.

This isn't part of Forge. We need your debug.log to be able to assist you further.

I copied and pasted my crash log in the pastebin website following your instructions, heres the link: https://pastebin.com/4YYvMv1R  hopefully i did it right and inserted the right crash log, I followed your instructions on how to find the debug.logs and just clicked on the most recent one, but i can just try starting up minecraft with forge again to get a new crash report and copy and paste that to be sure it's the right one.

If I could, I would. But there is no debug.log. Even reinstalled all again, but nothing

The first one looks like a log from running the Vanilla game without Forge. The second one indicates a possible driver issue. Have you tried updating your graphics drivers?

If you're using the CurseForge launcher, you need to turn it on in the settings.

To enable debug logging in the Curseforge app, open the app and click the cog/gear icon in the bottom-left of the app. This will open the app settings.

In the app settings, choose Minecraft under Game Specific settings and toggle on the Enable Forge debug log option, as shown below.
