So, much like many others, I'm having issues with my updating.  However,  I didn't see the particular error I'm having around.

 

So, here it is:

 

-- blah blah

:genSrgs SKIPPED

:makeStart FAILED

 

* What went wrong:

Execution failed for task ':makeStart'.

> A problem occurred starting process 'command 'javac''

 

This likely has a simple solution that I'm not seeing, but does anyone know for sure?

 

 

[EDIT} It seems that resetting my PATH variable fixed the problem.  Ignore this!

Hi,

 

I've the same problem with 1.7.2 recommended 1121.

I don't know how to fix this.

I tried as indicated:

 

gradlew build --refresh-dependencies

 

It didn't solve nothing... problem is still there. :-/

 

I tried also a fresh start. I totally removed my forge folder and I create a new one. I started as usual with:

 

gradlew setupDevWorkspace

 

The result is still unchanged: it doesn't work also in this way. :-/

Today I tried, it seems working now!

Getting so frustrated while having the same issue. I even removed my entire workspace, deleted all current versions of MC Forge, and retried. Nothing, the same error. Any other suggestions? I've tried all possible fixes, read through all posts and Github comments, but nothing helped.

 

Edit: I've downloaded the latest JDK (8u5) and it finally worked. My guess is that everyone having problems should play around with JDK versions and it isn't a problem on MC Forge.
