Hi all,

 

trying my first Forge installation on my Linux machine but keep running into an exception while installing "java3d:vecmath". Stacktrace is this:

Looks like he cannot download from a https source. Anyone have an idea what I can do?

 

Thanks in advance!

While this may not be the direct cause of your issue here, that looks like a Java 9+ installation. You'll need Java 8 for Forge anyway, so you should try using Java 8 to start with.

Thanks for the reply, that did indeed cause the exception! Thanks for your help!
