Exception in thread "Major Update Worker" when starting singleplayer

[JohnyWhite]

That's the thing. I played the old version like 10 minutes before I updated to the new one. I didn't download or install anything else at that time. I played the game, turned it off, browsed the web for a while, downloaded the new version and it stoped working.

I will try reinstalling java, but unless win10 did something in that span of 10 minutes, then I doubt it's on my end.

reinstalling isn't the point, open up a console and type "java -version"

[JohnyWhite]

Code: Select all

java version "1.8.0_221"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_221-b11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.221-b11, mixed mode)

[Ceikry]

That would be why. The server requires Java 11. You're running SP, which has to run the server, so you have to be running Java 11.

I suppose older builds were still incorrectly being built with 8?

[Ceikry]

As the FAQ on this very forum states, you have to have Java 11: viewtopic.php?t=2-faq-check-here-first

I installed the proper java version and restarted the PC:

Code: Select all

openjdk version "11.0.20.1" 2023-08-24
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin-11.0.20.1+1 (build 11.0.20.1+1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Temurin-11.0.20.1+1 (build 11.0.20.1+1, mixed mode)

The issue still persistst. Same error messages and everything, so the problem is somewhere else.
Besides. Previous version worked flawlesly even when I had the wrong java version, so the issue has to be something else.

I believe SP actually bundles a version of Java for Windows users. It's possible that this was the wrong version (the bundling was done by a separate volunteer about a year ago). Can you navigate to the SP's jre/bin folder in a console and do .\java -version

[JohnyWhite]

Im putting it here together with the file path in case I wrote it wrong.

Code: Select all

D:\singlscape\jre\bin>.\java -version
openjdk version "11.0.15" 2022-04-19
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin-11.0.15+10 (build 11.0.15+10)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Temurin-11.0.15+10 (build 11.0.15+10, mixed mode)

[Ceikry]

Looks right. I suppose I'll have to look into this more when I have time later on today, I'm technically supposed to be doing my dayjob right now. Apologies that it's not resolved yet.

[Ceikry]

In the meantime, can you do one more quick test and let me know if the old build still works?
