Couldn't find any problem similar to mine that was solved, apologies if I'm posting an already common issue.

Downloaded forge through the official site.

Odd... run the installer again

  • Quote

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://paste.gg/: 15MB

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.

 

Twitch Launcher: If you are using the Twitch Launcher, their configurations break Forge's log settings, fortunately there is an easier workaround than I originally thought, this works even with Twitch'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.

Video:

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]

Tried that numerous times and it didn't work, tried it once more just to make sure and nothing different.

In that case I guess try deleting /Users/[surname]/Library/Application Support/minecraft/libraries/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.16.4-35.1.4/ and running the installer again. If that doesn't work provide the installer log.

Might be a dumb question, but where do I find the installer logs?

The installer log should be in the same place as the installer file, either with the same name as the installer with .log on the end or just called installer.log

Uninstall every version of Java that you have and then reinstall whatever Java versions you need.

Note: I don't mean reinstall them one by one I mean there needs to be a point where there is one version of Java left and it gets uninstalled so it will clear out shared stuff to be regenerated when you reinstall the new one.

      1.16.4 Failed to synchronize registry data with server LAN

      By Teedledee · Posted 1 hour ago

      Not sure if this helps, but I copied all of the mods from my folder into a zipped folder which was then sent to my friend for them to unzip and drop all of the mods into their mod folder, the same goes for the configs.

      Well, yes. Now there's a bunch of new caveats. If you really want to attempt this, a similar mod named Hyperbox by Commoble accomplished this. That's probably the best I can do as the process of actually handling is quite complicated and problematic at times.

      Mods work in singleplayer but not in multiplayer

      By __SmolMight__ · Posted 1 hour ago

      I am new to the world of modding Minecraft so when I say I am completely lost on what to do, I mean I am utterly lost. To set up my modded Minecraft server for 1.12.2 I followed a youtube tutorial by the Breakdown and It works amazingly! But when I went to install the mods on the server to the mod folder and installed them all nothing happened. I loaded up my game and server and when I got on in creative mode none of the mods were present. They all work in singleplayer just fine with no crashing so I know it's not mod conflicts. I am just so confused on where to go at this point. I've tried following several threads and other videos on how to troubleshoot the problem but all the computer jargon just goes over my head and I am left more turned around than ever. All I ask is your patience and I prematurely apologize if my sheer stupidity is aggravating. Thanks in advance.

      not all my mods are showing up in a 1.12.2 server

      By uglyswed@gmail.com · Posted 1 hour ago

      when i play singleplayer all 19 of my mods are showing up but when i enter a server i made with my friend not all my mods are showing up. on my server list theres a green check mark and when i hover over it, it says "compatible FML modded server 4 mods present" how do I make all 19 mods show up in the server? We both have all 19 installed and both of us have singleplayer worlds with all 19 working fine.

      1.16.4 Failed to synchronize registry data with server LAN

      By Teedledee · Posted 1 hour ago

      Trying to play on a modded LAN server with my friend, when I try to join their LAN world I get the "Failed to synchronize registry data with server, closing connection" message, and they get the same message when trying to join my LAN world. We have the same forge version 35.1.12, all the same mods with the same versions of those mods as well as the same configs.   My forced crash report: https://pastebin.com/XMG5Z5Bi Friends forced crash report: https://pastebin.com/eXk8qQQT
