HI Im new and having trouble getting Forge to install.

by **aliusexalio** » 23 Sep 2013, 21:14

When I try and install forge, I get a message telling me: "this application requires a Java Runtime Enviroment 1.7.0"

When I click okay on that it redirects me to the Java website where I can download the latest version, which I did. Ive checked if it was correctly installed (it is), I even reinstalled it to be sure, I have closed all the browser windows, I have restarted my computer. No matter what I do, it will keep giving me this message and redirecting me to the Java website. Anyone that could help me get this installed?

I checked google and this forum, but could't find anything...

Thanks very much!

Your best bet is to post in the Forge forum. Moving...

What OS are you using?
Mac - see the "I have Java 7 installed on my Mac but Forge still does not run." link in Frequently Asked Questions.
Windows - see viewtopic.php?f=26&t=11475&p=129679#p129679.

Cheers,
Steve
