What am I doing wrong here while trying to set up Forge for Minecraft mods?

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':decompileMc'.
> Java heap space

* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output.

BUILD FAILED

Total time: 36.311 secs

Any help with fixing this error? I got this suggestion from a different page, but I need a little bit more then the unspecific instructions here:

"In case you will receive an error while running the task :decompileMC ( the fourth step )

Execution failed for task ':decompileMc'. GC overhead limit exceeded

assign more RAM into gradle by adding org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2G into the file ~/.gradle/gradle.properties (create file if doesn’t exist)."

Please take into consideration that I have very limited knowledge of CMD and a mild knowledge of java as I am just starting out in this 'coding' thing. Cheers for the responses that come!

are you on linux? if then type

cd $home/.gradle

then

pico gradle.properties

type in it

org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2G

CTRL + X to save

then try again.

Your java process simply needs more ram assigned than it gets default.
