Minecraft crashes with jre7.

ryanklee · 2011-08-08 19:38:22

Nightlies of lwjgl are giving me openal and sound sys problems, so they're a no go. The most recently release lwjgl works fine unless I put minecraft into fullscreen, then I can't get out of it. I've tried about every combination of Jre7 and a downgraded jre6 and lwjgl and nothing gives me a sane setup. Until this problem, whatever it is, gets resolved I'll just be using minecraft in non-fullscreen mode with JRE7 and the latest release of lwjgl.

PReP · 2011-08-09 03:58:33

Did everyone that it has not worked for, use/try openjdk6, _and_ the "ordinary" lwjgl coming with minecraft (instead of these nightilies i have not tried) ?

I don't feel like i have any especially uncommon hardware, and i haven't had any problems with vanilla minecraft (non modded) for almost all recent releases, nor with an mcpatched one (for 256x res textures)

Been running a server with my friends, on arch, and connecting through arch, since about 1.3 and upwards

Yes, OpenJDK did not help. Right now (as opposed to what I said above), I running JRE6 and the latest release (not nightly) of lwjgl and not having any problems.

I've just tried this, downgraded to jre 6u26-1 and tried the lwjgl-2.7.1 libraries but now I'm getting a new error:

Exception in thread "Minecraft main thread" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: getPointer

Did you try the ldconfig command cookiecaper gave with jre7?
That was the only thing I needed to get it working (x86_64).

ryanklee · 2011-08-10 19:43:43

ldconfig command did not prevent pause screen lockout upon exit from fullscreen for me. It seems that people are getting very different results from all the different methods suggested.

Edit: 64bit, here.

I did indeed try that, no change on i686.

PReP · 2011-08-12 04:33:00

Everyone mentions these external lwjgl libs, though i just go with the one packaged/pushed from the actual minecraft launcher jar, the one coming with/built for the game.
But, i suppose it works differently for everyone, it just bugs me that you all seem to have so much issues - like an irritating problem/mystery i'd like to solve

ryanklee · 2011-08-15 01:46:23

The external libs fix a major stuck key issue for linux minecraft client, which has some seriously old lwjgl shipping with it.

Yeah, i know - i were just figuring on about the game not working at all for people, and i, even though i am used to the stuck key issue (just pressing once in the same direction remedies that until next keystroke/focus update), it does work with no issues for me, since 1.3 up until 1.7.3 now.
And - as a trial and error step - trying the actual released with game lib might be a first thing for people to try.

cookiecaper · 2011-08-17 03:15:27

The pause screen only works for me if the game is in full-screen mode. If I ever lose focus from Minecraft while playing, I have to exit the game and restart it to be able to control it. This was the same on jre6. I assume it is an incompatibility with the windowing systems used by Minecraft and the awesomewm tiling window manager which I use.

PReP · 2011-08-20 02:44:02

It is probably the WM yeah, it works just fine in my openbox setup.

Though, there are probably window-behaviour and focus-settings for you to dabble with in whatever WM you use
- we are not in that "OS with the closed windows" after all

Still can't get this to work. Here's what I've tried:

1) replace 32bit libs with 64bit libs (originals supplied with minecraft) and run with LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/java/jre/lib/amd64"
2) replace original libs with latest stable lwjl (2.7.1)
3) replace 2.7.1 32bit libs with 2.7.1 64bit libs and run with LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/java/jre/lib/amd64"
4) openjdk6
5) ldconfig /opt/java/jre/lib/amd64/ (which is more or less equivalent to 3 as far as I understand).

None of this has worked. Getting rather frustrated as this one of very few games I enjoy playing, even more so as I paid for it. Always results in same error (after setting user):

Exception in thread "Minecraft main thread" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /home/sirrom/.minecraft/bin/natives/liblwjgl64.so: /home/sirrom/.minecraft/bin/natives/liblwjgl64.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 (Possible cause: architecture word width mismatch)

That sounds like a 32-bit <-> 64-bit issue.

What about just removing minecraft and:

1. get OpenJDK
2. fetch the games launcher from minecraft, log in with your account and the games fetches the files it is supposed to run with
3. Profit, hopefully?

All this replacing of libraries, and jwgl and stuff seems to be so much work with no gain if it doesn't even work for some people

Hi PReP,

I'm more than willing to try that. Here's what happened:

But at least for this error Minecraft recognizes it has crashed and has asked me to report it to mjang, which I'm about to. Thanks.

Switching graphics drivers from open-source Nouveau to proprietary Nvidia gets Minecraft working again in this case. I'm using openjdk6

I'm getting similar problems too. I'm running 32bit and minecraft just blackscreens after login. Downgrading to jre6 fixed it.

please explain how to downgrade. ???????? lol

THANKS

Grand, then you are having the same working setup as i have used since MC 1.3
- Now i just wonder if vanilla minecraft also works for ATI owners, with opensource or the *shudders* catalyst drivers

well sorry to say but I play the game but I cant move things in my inventory or even use the crafting table.... nothing like that..... so sad knowing that 1.8 is around the corner. any way to downgrade java?

darkreaper476 · 2011-08-26 18:36:04

WOOOT just found out how to downgrade jave and minecraft works perfect now thanks for all your helps!

bernarcher · 2011-08-26 21:15:51

darkreaper476,
it works? Then please mark this thread as [SOLVED] by editing the title of your first post.

PReP · 2011-10-16 13:55:37

This probably should be [SOLVED] or such now,
and/or continued in a JRE7 bug thread (non arch-specific) perhaps.

djchef · 2011-11-20 02:50:02

If your game wont go out of the pause menu, Try to press F11 (Fullscreen) it worked for me, I updated my lwg.jars'. I'm running Java 7 64Bit on Ubuntu w/ latest ATI catalyst proprietary drivers

and linux .so files from the lwjgg stable release aswell
