Forge Source Installation Problem

[Baummann]

Whenever I try to run install.sh (I'm on a mac) I get this log:

================ Forge ModLoader Setup Start ===================
Setting up MCP
> Restoring commands.py backup
patching file commands.py
Commands patch applied successfully
Copying FML conf
Fixing MCP Workspace
Could not find Client jar, decompile requires both client and server.
Decompile Exception: 1 

It says that the client jar can't be found, however it clearly is in mcp72/jars/bin (Server and Client are clean). I have tried this with the latest MCP and both, the latest and recommended build (both output the same error) of forge src. I'm using Python 2.7.3 atm.

 

I have installed it a bit differently than I'm supposed to because it's the only way that works for me:

First I've put the extracted forge folder in jars, after that I've put mcp's runtime folder in jars and created a conf folder. Then I've ran install.sh and it outputted the log above (the first time I did it, it downloaded all the libraries, of course).

 

If I don't do it the way I do it I get this log (it doesn't create a runtime folder, if that's a problem):

================ Forge ModLoader Setup Start ===================
Setting up MCP
> Backing up commands.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

    with open(src, 'rb') as fsrc:
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/******/Desktop/mcp72/jars/runtime/commands.py'

 

Now, after a bit of messing around with forge's python files, I've figured out that it wants to get the jars from ~/Desktop/mcp72/jars/jars. I would've, of course tried to fix this myself, but since I'm not good with python at all I couldn't.

 

 

So.. are there any fixes for this?

Why did you put forge in jars?

put it in the root.

Oh my god I hate myself so much right now.

Well thanks it's working fine.
