Problem launching the launcher

[Stigandr]

Launcher/pack Version: 0.5.4.9

Operating System: Windows 7

Version of Java: Java 7 x64

Description of Problem:

I open the launcher, it says checking for version. Then closes and nothing more happens.

My java is up to date, PATH is set, and I have checked the COMMON PROBLEMS thread. Nothing helps, but one thing looks like my problem but not the right answer was given unfortunately.

Error Messages: N/A

Link to pastebin of log: N/A

Quick help is appreciated

- Thanks

What antivirus do you have?

[Stigandr]

Microsoft Security Essentials

Okay, lets try some standards first.

Have you tried all of the following:

Clear cache, restart?

Delete .techniclauncher, as well as techniclauncher.exe and redownload?

running the .jar?

reinstalling java?

selecting a different build (longshot)?

If you are using Java 6, try uninstalling that and installing Java 7.

Clear chache: Done (Using CCleaner does the trick right?)

Delete: Done

Running the Jar: How?

Java reinstall: Done

Different build: How?

Still no go :/

Running the .jar: Find the launcher.jar (I think that's it) and right click and "Open with Java"

Different Build: Load the launcher, click options (under login), click manual build selection and choose from the drop down list.

most of what stigandr said.

Theres a button in the launcher that says clear cache. I'm pretty sure ccleaner doesn't do the same thing.

However, if a complete technic reinstall doesn't work, the cache wasn't the problem.

Running the jar worked, but that's the only way of me opening the launcher at the moment

EDIT: Changing build did nothing

Then it sounds like you should just make a .bat to run the jar for now.

OK

Thanks for all of the kind help.

1 unrelated queston tho, it says I'm on version 1,1 (Minecraft) in the main menu. Should it be 1.2.3 or 1.2.5?

Psssh. Of course, no one listens to me. Dumb mods butting in.

I'm just kidding...
