Hello,

    I have a problem with my installer. Here are some background info:

game version: 1.14.4

installer version: 1.14.4-28.1.10

OS: windows 10 (built on a Mac)

java version: 8 update 221

 

So the first time I downloaded the installer, there is no program in my pc

that can support.jar file, so I downloaded Java and then tried to open the installer with it, but I can’t:

 

The symptom is that every time I click on the installer icon, a window like command prompt appears and suddenly closes, then the program does not give me any further information and stops working.

Please provide your installer log, it will have the same name as the installer but with .log on the end:

Installer: forge-{version}-installer.jar

Log: forge-{version}-installer.jar.log

 

Note: If you have Windows Explorer set to hide file extensions(as is the default setting), they will look like this:

Installer: forge-{version}-installer

Log: forge-{version}-installer.jar

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.

Thank you! But I can’t find this log file. I use edge. There is only one installer (.jar) file in the folder.

Please run the installer from the command line and post the output.

I typed “java -jar forge-1.14.4-28.1. Jar p-installer.jar”, and on the next line it says “Error: Unable to access jarfile [filename]”

For me it opens just the file, but on opera internet browser, even when I try to change the open with java's not a choice even though I downloaded java.

    • For anyone still looking for the equivalent for 1.19.2+, the render type should be set for the model. In datagen, this can be done by using ModelBuilder::renderType, otherwise just add the line directly to the json file. As for the validity of this question, the idiomatic solution is presented nowhere online; ModelBuilder::renderType is never addressed when discussing block render types meaning that the solution I have provided is the first mentioned usage. Furthermore, there are no external references to this function meaning that to discover its existence requires a deep search through Forge's code. Therefore it is not only understandable but expected that most beginner modders would struggle to find this function given the already poor documentation of Forge's API.
    • Same issue without voicechat?
    • Start by following the docs to get a workspace setup: https://docs.minecraftforge.net/en/latest/gettingstarted/ Then poke around some of the tutorials, https://www.mcjty.eu/docs/1.20/ used to be the goto, but not sure if there are any updates for regular forge or not, but if you've brushed up on Java, it will be enough to get you started. Poke around the Minecraft and Forge sources to see how things are done. Read the FAQ for information on how to post code/logs when you run into issues. Share as much info on issues you have as possible. Use github to host projects, chances of someone helping are higher when they can actually see all your code and/or build it themselves. And finally, keep it on the forums, don't direct message people with questions, most people do not provide personal support like that. Also keep in mind forums posts are not always immediately answered, if you're looking for a quicker response, you can always try the Minecraft Forge discord server.
    • Hello, I have a Forge Minecraft sever (I host it at g-portal.com) which has always worked fine and I had no problems, but today it doesn't wanna work anymore. Today I started the server and the status said online, but after a few seconds it said this: "Start failed". And then out of nowhere it restarted itself and the same thing happened again and again and now it's in an infinite loop where it just keeps failing and then restarts. Here's the download link for the server logs: https://www.mediafire.com/file/sq30dgoonjevib1/2025-07-06-1.log/file Does anyone know how to fix this? If yes I would really appreciate help. Best wishes, Gabs1107
