Tekkit launcher crashes

[Daniels Wrath]

Hello everyone,

 

I just created a Tekkit server so I and some friends could play on the server together.

However, every time I try to start the launcher and then click on 'play' (while having tekkit selected) the launcher crashes. It's really annoying and it both happens on my mac (osX yosemity) and on my pc (windows 8.1 x64).

One of the logs can be found here

 

Thanks in advance

1. The log doesn't come from tekkit as it contains info about loading openblocks.

2. You have a java problem. Uninstall java 1.8 and install java 1.7 or don't do anything with java and drop this to the mods directory of the packs that don't work.
