I see the 403 in the log, but I'm not sure how to fix that, or if it can be fixed (if it's an issue with the URL being used, or if it's an issue on Mojang/Minecraft's end).  I'm installing using forge-1.7.2-10.12.0.976-installer.jar.  Forge installs fine and works fine on single player mode.  Just having an issue with the server version.

 

I have read through the EAQ's, and didn't see a related topic.  Please correct me if I've missed something that can resolve this.  Additionally, if there's a link that can be provided to manually download the missing components, that would work too.

The links are available on the EAQ, however, these 403 errors are not a real issue unless it tells you it failed to download the libraries. You should be able to check by going into the libraries folder and looking for the ones that you think are missing.

Thanks.

 

The server wasn't starting when launching from the forge.jar file, but worked fine from the vanilla 1.7.2 server jar that was downloaded by the installer.  It came up with some stuff I didn't understand, so I posted this log thinking I'd traced the root of my problem to the launchwrapper and other items missing during installation.  I'll have to get it all set up again and post the log for review once I can replication the problem.

 

I did check prior to posting and I saw all of the libraries and wrapper in their respective folders, but thought perhaps they were corrupted.  I've done a few fresh installs to ensure it wasn't a fluke.

There were some issues around the Mojang servers recently, these files are needed, And remember when you are running the server to run it from the console so you can get a log.

 

But, try installing with the installer again as the issues on Mojang's servers should be resolved by now.
