[linux] "MinecraftLauncher said: 1"

[legolegs]

Hi. The Launcher does not launch the game for me. It downloads minecraft and modpack but when I hit "Launch" it just closes. I'm running Fedora Linux 64 bits and standalone modded minecraft works fine.

My FTBLauncherLog.txt is here: http://fpaste.org/Lwu4/

I'm a programmer (not a java-programmer though), so I tried to debug it myself using some tools. The only appropriate tool was the /usr/bin/strace. Found some strange unsuccessful syscalls like

lstat("/home/legolegs/games/minecraft/FTBMP/FTB_Launcher-0.2.1-Beta.jar;", 0x7f2fc26f4490) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

(note the semicolon). I don't know if it is related or just some useless java subsubsubsystem derping around.

Dear ftb launcher developers, can you please help me with that?

I'm downloading F17 to install in vmware atm, but from your launcher log it does show that you're using Java 6, installing Java 7 may help. I'll get back to you with more once I do some testing.

Java 7 does not seem to make a difference. At least not on Mac OSX where I get the same error as legolegs.

 

[dafiremaster]

@Jawoll: I was unaware that Apple afforded their users the ability to choose which Java version they had.

@legolegs: I was able to get it to run successfully under Fedora 17 using Java 7 OpenJDK runtime.

[grturner@F17-testbed Downloads]$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_09-icedtea"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (fedora-2.3.3.fc17.1-x86_64)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.2-b09, mixed mode)

I ran the launcher from command line

[grturner@F17-testbed Downloads]$ java -Xmx2048M -Xincgc -jar Feed_The_Beast_Launcher_Beta_v0.1.1.jar

You can install the Java 7 OpenJDK runtime by invoking the following command:

# yum install java-1.7.0-openjdk

If you install Java 7 along side Java 6, you will also need to update your system to which java you want to be running. Be sure to choose "/usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64/bin/java" :

# alternatives --config java

Please give the 0.2.1 Beta version a try. I'm sure the 0.1.1 version is running for the OP as well.

 

[dafiremaster]

FTB 0.2.1 launcher didn't work. Just use the 0.1.1 launcher. There is something wrong with it, the jar file is less than a sixth of the size of the 0.1.1 launcher. That should not be, unless they just decided to pack in a lot of unnecessary junk in the 0.1.1 launcher

Anyways it's not like any of the mod content has changed. It's just the launcher.

 

[hubertnnn]

I have similar error in arch linux. Launcher works fine, modpack is downloaded, but when minecraft shuld start everything just closes.

Edit: Everything was fine in 0.1, currently using 0.2.1

 

[Droa]

the number that java returns is the exit code... and exit code 1, is to tell the tty it had an error, as fare as i can see its the minecraft launcher, and not the FTB launcher.. i would guess its becasue its missing some files, or the JVM is outdated.. try look in the minecraft log, it would proberly tell you more about what error that the launcher had

 

[dafiremaster]

Like I've said previously, if 0.1.1 works for you, keep using it. There is no difference in the modpack itself, just the launcher has a different coding.

 

[legolegs]

Well, the launcher v0.1.1 works for me with both jre-1.7.0-openjdk and jre-1.6.0-sun. The launcher v. 0.2.1-Beta doesn't work no matter which jre is selected.
NB: http://repo.creeperhost.net/downloads/FTB2/Feed_The_Beast_Launcher_Beta_v0.1.1.jar
P.S. I won't going to play ftb modpack right now, I rather stick with 1.2.5 where RP2 is working. The only reason I am here because Slowpoke in his stream asked people for some testing and feedback.

BTW, I note that having used MultiMC my Minecraft ALWAYS returns an error on exit (tested vanilla and modded 1.2.5, 1.3.2 and 1.4.2), even when everything has been absolutely fine.

 

[NosajDraw]

Anyone with any input into this?

 

[portablejim]

It is fixed in the next version of the launcher (0.3). The versions 0.2.X are broken on Mac and Linux.

 

[Luke_H]

Wait for the new Launcher to come out, 0.2.x doesn't work for Mac OSX.
