Using "forge-1.12.2-14.23.4.2705-installer.jar" fails installation.

Spoiler

java -jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.4.2705-installer.jar --installServer

It gives the following error code.

Spoiler

"Downloading minecraft server failed, invalid e-tag checksum.

Try again, or manually place server jar to skip download.

There was an error during server installation"

 

I've already placed the 1.12.2 server jar from Mojangs websites in the same directory as this, so it shouldn't be failing. The directory is /root/minecraft btw. (root being the folder, not the actual VFS root "/" )

 

https://pastebin.com/nNCfbXjX Here is the pastebin that contains the log.

 

This is a headless server, so I am unable to use a GUI. I'd appreciate it if anyone could help me install it.

You need to rename the minecraft jar to "minecraft_server.1.12.2.jar" for the Forge installer to detect it properly. 

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.

Spoiler

Logs (Most issues require logs to diagnose):

Spoiler

Please post logs using one of the following sites (Thank you Lumber Wizard for the list):

https://gist.github.com/: 100MB Requires member (Free)

https://pastebin.com/: 512KB as guest, 10MB as Pro ($$$)

https://hastebin.com/: 400KB

Do NOT use sites like Mediafire, Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, or a site that has a countdown before offering downloads.

 

What to provide:

...for Crashes and Runtime issues:

Minecraft 1.14.4 and newer:

Post debug.log

Older versions:

Please update...

 

...for Installer Issues:

Post your installer log, found in the same place you ran the installer

This log will be called either installer.log or named the same as the installer but with .log on the end

Note for Windows users:

Windows hides file extensions by default so the installer may appear without the .jar extension then when the .log is added the log will appear with the .jar extension

 

Where to get it:

Mojang Launcher: When using the Mojang launcher debug.log is found in .minecraft\logs.

 

Curse/Overwolf: If you are using the Curse Launcher, their configurations break Forge's log settings, fortunately there is an easier workaround than I originally thought, this works even with Curse's installation of the Minecraft launcher as long as it is not launched THROUGH Twitch:

Spoiler
  1. Make sure you have the correct version of Forge installed (some packs are heavily dependent on one specific build of Forge)
  2. Make a launcher profile targeting this version of Forge.
  3. Set the launcher profile's GameDir property to the pack's instance folder (not the instances folder, the folder that has the pack's name on it).
  4. Now launch the pack through that profile and follow the "Mojang Launcher" instructions above.

Spoiler

 

 

 

or alternately, 

 

Fallback ("No logs are generated"):

If you don't see logs generated in the usual place, provide the launcher_log.txt from .minecraft

 

Server Not Starting:

Spoiler

If your server does not start or a command window appears and immediately goes away, run the jar manually and provide the output.

 

Reporting Illegal/Inappropriate Adfocus Ads:

Spoiler

Get a screenshot of the URL bar or copy/paste the whole URL into a thread on the General Discussion board with a description of the Ad.

Lex will need the Ad ID contained in that URL to report it to Adfocus' support team.

 

Posting your mod as a GitHub Repo:

Spoiler

When you have an issue with your mod the most helpful thing you can do when asking for help is to provide your code to those helping you. The most convenient way to do this is via GitHub or another source control hub.

When setting up a GitHub Repo it might seem easy to just upload everything, however this method has the potential for mistakes that could lead to trouble later on, it is recommended to use a Git client or to get comfortable with the Git command line. The following instructions will use the Git Command Line and as such they assume you already have it installed and that you have created a repository.

 

  1. Open a command prompt (CMD, Powershell, Terminal, etc).
  2. Navigate to the folder you extracted Forge’s MDK to (the one that had all the licenses in).
  3. Run the following commands:
    1. git init
    2. git remote add origin [Your Repository's URL]
      • In the case of GitHub it should look like: https://GitHub.com/[Your Username]/[Repo Name].git
    3. git fetch
    4. git checkout --track origin/master
    5. git stage *
    6. git commit -m "[Your commit message]"
    7. git push
  4. Navigate to GitHub and you should now see most of the files.
    • note that it is intentional that some are not synced with GitHub and this is done with the (hidden) .gitignore file that Forge’s MDK has provided (hence the strictness on which folder git init is run from)
  5. Now you can share your GitHub link with those who you are asking for help.

[Workaround line, please ignore]

Try putting  

-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true

before your -jar argument

cd /root/minecraft

java -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -jar forge-1.12.2-14.23.4.2705-installer.jar --installServer

Leads to the same error. I've also made sure my DigitalOcean Droplet's firewall was off.

javax.net.ssl.SSLException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected error: java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException: the trustAnchors parameter must be non-empty

 

Only thing google tells me is your JRE is not installed correctly.

Run using a different JRE or re-install your java.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

If its giving you the same error then SOMETHING is broken with your JVM. Or your trust chains. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6784463/error-trustanchors-parameter-must-be-non-empty for more info. This isn't a Forge or installer issue. Its something wrong with your server.

 

As for Forge not working on J9, the installer will work fine on it. However LaunchWrapper, the core loading system assumes some things about the classpath that J9 breaks. It'll just error when you try and actually run the server. As I said, the installer will work fine. As for where this is told yo you, in the error, and in our EAQs

      Fabric REQUIEM crashing whenever I try taking souls away from mobs (with empty soul vessel)

      By WorstLuck · Posted

      REMEMBER, ITS FABRIC 1.18.2 I'm not sure why my minecraft game had crashed, when I turned into a ghost I tried to harvest soul away from a spider since it had a soul with a empty soul vessel, but it instantly made my game crash, maybe it was because of sodium or something like that?
