Downgrading FTB

[Raven0513]

I was playing on a FTB server when my computer restarted. when i relaunched FTB it asked if i wanted to update so i figured why not, but now i cant play on that server and i was wondering if i could somehow go back to the previous version of FTB before 1.0.6

I too am having the same problem and would like to do the same thing.

 

[direlight]

Yeah, having the same problem here.

Guys, it's not FTB's fault. The error message and twitter says that the Minecraft Session servers are down. Just be patient. They're working on it.

Well if you're desperate, putting the server on Offline Mode in the server.properties file apparantly bypasses this.

Go read a book? When the servers go down, they have a team of people there to fix it. And more often than not, it's no easy fix and will take some time. You can bet that in the next 1-3 hours it will be back up, then there will be a backlog of people trying to log in. Come back in a few hours.

Yeah, I thought that too until I noticed the url it was trying to connect too. Plus the IOException FTB flashes me with then they have slashdot problems.

EDIT: You're welcome, by the way.

Note: some of us spend most of our free time playing/helping others play. I am one of those people. But today, I'm taking down some trees at my in-laws. And thankfully all of the others who help out are still here too

Yeah I did that once. The way my server host works is when you tell it to look for jars, it looks for jars named Minecraft_Server.jar. Of course I forgot to rename the ftb server jar, so it used a default, blank jar and wiped all the mod stuff.

Lesson learned, back up your worlds.
Which reminds me, I'm about due for a backup...

Edit: Or not because the FTP connection's misbehaving.

Noticed this issue this morning, did some troubleshooting before eventually finding this thread. I'm not versed in exactly how the MC session servers work; is there a short answer as to why a vanilla server seems to work fine but FTB doesn't?

E: Disregard struck text, talked to the admin and the vanilla server may have been set to offline mode already. Anyway, thanks for the heads up.

You can get into vanilla servers? Are they in offline or online mode?

Sorry for the confusion, edited my post.

Well, I posted a dissection to the error but I don't remember where.

Basically when trying to communitcate with the session servers, they return with a code 500 which is a failed connection, meaning it can't let you enter a session on a third party server. Dinnerbone's working on it right now.
