Hello, my launcher somehow got bugged, and when i tried doing a fresh install, I kept getting this error, "To report this error, provide: java.net.SocketException: Address family not supported by protocol family: connect at java.net.DualStackPlainSocketImpl.connect0(Native Method) at java.net.DualStackPlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Unknown Source) at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.doConnect(Unknown Source) at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(Unknown Source) at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.connect(Unknown Source) at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.connect(Unknown Source) at java.net.SocksSocketImpl.connect(Unknown Source) at java.net.Socket.connect(Unknown Source) at java.net.Socket.connect(Unknown Source) at sun.net.NetworkClient.doConnect(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.openServer(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.openServer(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.<init>(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.New(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.http.HttpClient.New(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getNewHttpClient(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.plainConnect0(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.plainConnect(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.connect(Unknown Source) at com.skcraft.launcher.bootstrap.HttpRequest.execute(HttpRequest.java:115) at com.skcraft.launcher.bootstrap.Downloader.execute(Downloader.java:73) at com.skcraft.launcher.bootstrap.Downloader.run(Downloader.java:42) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)"
It appears to be being fed an unsupported IP type, I heavily suspect that someone is feeding it an IPv6 address
From the beginning, I tried to play infinity, but when I opened the launcher, I gave me an error saying "the remote host could not be found" and "no modpacks can be found". So I figured having all the packs installed might have bugged something, so I deleted everything, and tried a fresh download. That's when I got that error
I do believe I did. But I'll have to double check it later to be 100% sure Yes I did 100% delete it. if it helps any, the error says I can't download the launcher
Whats your internet connection? Is it a shared one (school, work place, apartment..). Do you use a vpn? Does the internet connection involve a proxy? @Xfel11 do you know more about this?
It's a private network i pay for, no vpn, and i'v never had an issue with the launcher till a few days ago. but after looking into it more on my side, I did install the"Evolve" client a few days ago so some of my friends could play Age of Empires 3, and it wanted me to download a program for my internet to do private servers. Thanks for the help so far though[DOUBLEPOST=1472703599,1472700821][/DOUBLEPOST]Disregaurd everything. Evolve client installed a program that made a lot of my games switch to a VPN because I ran into the same issue when i tried to launch Ark, and RE5. After I uninstalled everything from Evolve, it fixed it. Thanks for the help everyone, much appreciated!
Ok, this is a little tricky but might help: Open command prompt (windows start button, type cmd in search) Click top left of command prompt, click properties, enable quick edit mode Copy: setx _JAVA_OPTIONS -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Djava.net.preferIPv6Addresses=false Right click on command prompt, should paste Hit enter. Alternatively you can try to start the launcher with this command in the command line java -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Djava.net.preferIPv6Addresses=false -jar C:\path\to\launcher\MyM-Launcher.exe
