Technic Launcher has been around for almost a decade. I recently started playing again to be hit repeatedly with the error: "Failed to login: Bad Login" whenever I tried to join a tekkit server. From the discord I've seen that this issue impacts everybody, and it occurs when Minecraft.net (Or Mojang) is down. Every response I've seen is blaming Mojang and saying that it will be fixed once Mojang fixes their end.
But this issue is not for any other launcher. Regular Minecraft works fine, we can join any server. Other launchers work fine, I can use Badlion Client, Voids Wrath (another modded version), etc. Which only leaves the possibility that Technic relies on some assets from minecraft.net, that seemingly no other launcher relies on. I'm not a very technical person so I don't know anything about that, but it seems like other launchers have fixed this, is it unsolvable in this context?
When I first joined the discord, I see dozens of other people spamming the tech-help channel, asking the same question I'm wondering. Checking the FAQ results in nothing, the question isn't listed there. The staff's response is to try restarting their game and logging in again. Then I looked on Discord's search bar "bad login" to find nearly 800 results, stretching back to 2015. Why is everyone so confused since it's been going on for so long. Even if the problem can't be solved, it's ridiculous that nobody can respond to the *most asked* question. I don't mean to come off as rude or insulting, but this is something that needs to be changed in my opinion.
The reason that restarting your game doesn't work for the recent bad login issues is because Mojang's legacy login/session servers have been having stability issues lately. If they're unreachable, then you'll get the bad login error.
When this issue occurs for specific users and not everyone running older versions of Minecraft (such as Tekkit Classic which uses MC 1.2.5), it's generally because they're logged into more than one copy of the game or have something blocking their connection to the login/session servers.
Newer versions aren't affected by this issue as they authenticate differently from older versions.
Contrary to Technic's announcement, I can't find any statements from Mojang saying they are going to or have shut down legacy login/session servers. The ticket linked in Technic's announcement does hint that Mojang is planning on fixing the issue.

I tried doing that and it didn't seem to work. Also had a the other people on my server log out and back into their tekkit launcher but that didn't work for them either.
It just seemed odd that it happened right after I placed the redpower item that would require the fake player to be added to the server.
Mojang is having issues with their legacy login/session servers currently which is causing the "bad login" errors. Their servers seem to come up every few hours, then stay up for a few hours before going down again. Mojang has no ETA on when this issue will be fixed.
This isn't specific to your server. It affects everyone running older versions of Minecraft.
For now, you can either wait it out, or set your server to offline mode. Keep in mind setting it to offline mode will allow anyone to join with or without a paid account, which also means people could "pretend" to be other users, including you. So this isn't the safest option, and I'd highly recommend using an authentication plugin on top of it if this is the route you decide to go. Technic recommended this one: https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/authme-reloaded

You need the sound patch. Many older versions of Minecraft no longer download the necessary sound files properly.
You can download the patch here: http://dl.unknowntekkit.com/Sounds_Tekkit_Classic.zip
Install the patch by doing the following:
- Download the sounds patch file
- Ensure that Tekkit Classic is not open or running
-
Windows: Press the Windows key + R. Type "%appdata%" (without quotations) and press Enter, and go to the ".technic" folder.
Mac/Linux: Navigate to where you installed the Technic Launcher - Go to the modpacks folder, then tekkit, then resources
- Unzip the "Sounds_Tekkit_Classic.zip" file, enter the Sounds folder, then copy the "music", "newmusic", "newsound", "pe", "sound", and "streaming" folders into the resources folder, overwriting any files if necessary
- Start Tekkit Classic

Tekkit classic crashes help
in Tekkit Classic

Press the windows key and r at the same time, then type in
and hit enter.
Delete the "tekkit" folder. Doing this will completely remove your Tekkit Classic files (including worlds, screenshots, servers, etc...) so you can re-install it from the Technic Launcher.
If you want to keep your worlds, screenshots, etc... go into the "tekkit" folder, then copy the "saves", "screenshots", "servers.dat" folders/file to somewhere else, that way you can put them back into the new tekkit folder when you reinstall the pack.
