Tekkit, stop masturbating, it is a sin. I'm gonna tell it to MoM.

They're being a troll.

Java Version: latest

is not a valid answer.

Luckily, the log you copied provides the actual answer, which happens to be root cause of the issue (Java version).

You need to force OS X to use Java 6. An example of how to do this is in this thread.

okay thnx. i just looked and my mac dont have java 6 even on it? ill redownload java 6 and update the post on how it goes

[saintnicster]

EDIT - Wrong post, I'm an idiot

[_N_3_R_O_]

right well after trying many many times to get java 6 for os lion they dont do it and im pretty sure i had it but i cannot find a download. also now its saying update failed. anyone got anymore ideas?

[saintnicster]

1. Uninstall Java 7

2. Reboot

3. Try running Technic (or any other Java-based app bundle). At this point, OS X should probably say "Hey! You don't have Java downloaded. We'll download it from System Update for you".

I had this same problem but found the answer here

http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/launcher-crashing-to-desktop-while-installing-modpacks.28315/

That gets the Launcher to open but once I try logging in with Technic selected it says checking for update to minecraft.jar. It appears to download minecraft.jar three times and then shows a box saying Update Failed!

I am on OSX 10.7.5 forcing Java 1.6 to run on Technic launcher 1.0.2.0

Also I can get the Tekkit set to open and run but the rest will not open via the Technic Launcher.

This isn't related at all. Also, there are about 5 other topics with the same error message on it that you could have leached onto.

My apologies, it seemed that N3RO was having the same problem that I was earlier and thought that he might possibly run into the same problem as me afterwards. I've been trying to find a solution to this problem all day.

[_N_3_R_O_]

indeed i have. it now says update failed. i would love to uninstall java completly and that is what i am trying to do now. if i manage to uninstall java 7 and replace it with the java 6 download i found (it works but wont install coz java 7 still there).

[Garnin]

From what I've read Java 6 is still there somewhere and that's how we can get the Launcher to start with the terminal commands. I still don't know why there is a mismatch in the download process. This comes up in the log 'Downloaded 'minecraft.jar' does not matche MD5 of any known minecraft version!'. I think it may be that the Launcher is recognizing the 1.4.2 update as a valid minecraft build. I don't exactly know however. I don't know what the MD5 part means.

On a side note, you and I are the only two I have found so far with this problem running on Mac 10.7.5.

[_N_3_R_O_]

right well after some work this is what i now got: java 7 update 9. i have a version of java 6 ready to go but it wont install because java 7 is still there.it now says update failed and this is the log:

what i need: how to wipe java 7 from my comp entirely OR the teminal commands to get tekkit running any way possible. or any other explanation of whats going on

many thnx to the good people of the tekkit forums

[Wendo]

Wow, read the stickies, it's not a java problem. You need to manually download the right minecraft.jar

[_N_3_R_O_]

or you could give me the link to the page where it says it? because these forums are massive? and you sound like you know where it is?

c'mon bro im so close having tekkit back

The definition of a sticky is a thread that is "pinned" on top of a section. They're right there at the first page...

[_N_3_R_O_]

okay and which sticky is it? i read the ones at the top of this section and cant find it. link me it plz? ill give you many cookie points!!

No. Teach a man to fish, blah blah blah.

Use your brain and think about it for two seconds to a minute.

Notice the major divisions with the boards. What areas can you rule out as not being applicable. Think "Hmm, would this be covered in the LP section? Random art? Server advertisments? Or is this a more specific issue? Is it an issue with Tekkit itself, or could it be an issue with the launcher?"

You also need to look at _all_ the messages being produced, not just those in the log itself. Not everyone knows to look there.

Deductive reasoning skills are your friend and will help you from being just another fucking leach on these forums.

EDIT - added unseen quote

[_N_3_R_O_]

I can't find it *cries*. D:

[The_DarthMoogle]

No. Teach a man to fish, blah blah blah.

Give a man a fish, and you will feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and he will feed you cut-price fish, so he can afford to buy processed fish for his family.

Until his fishing rod breaks, at which point you find some other poor asian man to exploit.

[_N_3_R_O_]

right back to the original problem. i found the sticky and did what it said. joy of joy it worked. but now im back to click login, white screen for a few seconds, then crashes.

Anyone got a clue? coz i am now officially bamboozled
