Loading, and Update failed?

[Mortamay]

Launcher Version: Technic Platform (The newest one just DLed today) Build : 200

Operating System: Win 7

Java Version: 1.7.0_17

Antivirus Program: AVG

Description of Problem:

first problem is, when I open the launcher (Technic Platform) it has 'Loading' and I wait 1-2 mineuts, come back still not working, wait 3 more then I restart launcher. Did this 4 times. Deleted everything tekkit related, cleared recyle bin, re-downloaded it from the tekkit site, saved the launcher, ran it. Same problem. Before any of the loading happened, on the other ver (With Custom 1, 2 and 3.) I deleted it BECAUSE every time I tried to put in a new modpack, For Eg : I wanted to try Voltz, and Hack/Mine but each said 'Update Failed!' after trying to DL Minecraft.jar 3 times. After that, I said to myself 'Oh well'

Went onto tekkitLite and it had a new update, updated it says 'Update failed!' can't go on Tekkitlite anymore, my little bro goes on, updates everything, so I'm forced with 2 options, stop playing on the tekkitlauncher or try to update to the new one, after removing the files and re-applying them ect.

Now the new one no longer works, so now what?

Error Messages:

Update Failed

Error Log:

Oh yes and! Whenever I go to enter Tekkit lite sometimes it loads, then when I DL it; it responds

Stack Trace:

Exception: IOException

Message: Failed to download Minecraft! Pack: tekkitlite Minecraft version: 1.4.7

Aswell as in the options there's NO WAY TO CHANGE MC VER

I am having the same problem. The technicpack site is responding really slow right now, and it looks like the http.socket.timeout is set really low. I tried setting the timeout via the command line but it didn't work.

is working again, but you may raise the timeout value.

I'm having the same problem i wanted to try voltz and reinstall yogbox and start using thuamcraft again and i keep getting update fail. when it tries to load it tries loading the minecraft.jar folder three times than says update failed. tekkit will work if i clear it and reinstall but the others won't any ideas?

i have a smiler problem to this. if i try to start up any mod pack other than tekkit classic, it connects to the minecraft website, then i get the update failed. and no matter what i do. it always forbids me from starting up anything other than tekkit classic.

i have no idea what to do. where do i get help at?

This should be resolved now, we had some extreme server issues and the latest build of the launcher is now putting much less strain on it.

You don't understand. It's been doing this to me for two years.

... you might need to buy a premium minecraft account....

I don't understand no. If it's the same launcher you've been using for 2 years maybe you need to try downloading the new one from www.technicpack.net/download

it was just an expression. im sorry if i insulted you without realizing it. i tried downloading the new launcher, it brings me to a sketchy looking page that asks me to download a toolbar that my security system isn't okay with.

Scratch that, i got everything under contrull now. My computer sounds like its doing a lot more work then with the previous launche, but other then that it appears fine.

Nevermined again. It just crashed my computer when I tried to start hack slash mine.

Finally found a fix, at least for OS X. When you're in the launcher, click the little settings icon, increase your ram from 1-2 gigs and check increase PermGen Size. Should stop crashing.
