not sure if it is the same as my issue, but I found that downgrading my java to 1.6 fixed it for me (crashing when trying to launch mod packs)

The problem should have had nothing to do with downgrading to 1.6, I believe you just happened to do that when our servers got fixed.

This problem shouldn't be happening anymore, we believe we sorted out all the server and launcher issues causing it.

I am having the same issue that this person described right now. The only exception is my OS is 10.7.5

It's still not working, even with build 217.

What error are you actually receiving?

It's not an error message, It just keeps on crashing whenever I try to load a mod pack.

Oh, yeah sorry. The other guy was right for this particular problem it's actually java 7 on OSX doesn't work with lwjgl even minecraft has problems with it. Sorry the log you posted threw me off because that error message in your log was our server issue.

Rolling back to java 1.6 fixes LWJGL for OSX.

Ok, thanks. Do you ever think java 7 will support this?

Yeah it's an apple issue, there is a long running thread on the LWJGL forums where they are basically compiling as much information as they can so that they and apple can fix it.
