The moment the Server started
[Netty IO #1/ERROR]: Channel became inactive!
was spammed in the console with increasing #'s
(e.g
[Netty IO #1/ERROR]: Channel became inactive!
[Netty IO #2/ERROR]: Channel became inactive!
[Netty IO #3/ERROR]: Channel became inactive!
)
Because it states IO, i'm guessing it has something to do with Input/Output errors?
to reproduce, just start the minecraft server and watch the console

Confirmed.
Also effects 13w41b
Not just happening on Linux, same error on Windows 7. No control panel.
Startup file is currently: java -Xms1G -Xmx1G -jar server.jar nogui
Java version copied from Windows Powershell.
java version "1.7.0_25"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_25-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.25-b01, mixed mode)
Also happening on OS X 10.8.5
[Netty IO #1/ERROR]: Channel became inactive! - Mac OS X 10.8.5
I CANT SEE ANYTING ON MY CONSOLE PLS FIX IT NOOW!
@crazyman you cant report seperate issues inside the comments of a different kind of issue.
Tip: lay off the caps ;P
Also happening on Windows 7 X64bit.
I can confirm this has happened to myself.
Same on windows 8.
Occurs on Windows Server 2012 Datacenter.
And confirmed on Windows 8.1!
Woah, if I delete server-icon.png, it works perfectly!
I had the opposite.When i added a server-icon.png it started working(mine was 64x64).
I founded a way to fix this. You have to upload server-icon.png to the server folder. Size is 64x64.
CodeHawkMC, this does not solve my issue. if anything i have noticed that it makes the bug more agitated.
This bug is obviously a Global bug, it effects all systems that can boot the minecraft server 13w41a/b.

This is just log spam, nothing more. "Channel became inactive" simply means a connection ended (such as pinging, or trying to join, or anything.)
Many of the bugs closed as duplicates also complain of being unable to connect to the server, the log spam being incidental to the report. Does this bug being fixed mean that the log spamming is fixed? Or has the issue mentioned in the duplicate bugs (unable to connect to server, timeout exception displayed) been resolved?
[09:23:17] [Server thread/INFO]: Starting minecraft server version 13w41b
[09:23:17] [Server console handler/ERROR]: Exception handling console input
There is a bug that was closed for being a duplicate of this, when it is a totally different error. Here it is: https://mojang.atlassian.net/browse/MC-34947
Please reopen this so that it will be noticed and hopefully fixed.
There are diff Netty IO issues and the biggest hasnt been solved yet an is causing a lot of servers to stay clear of the 13w4* snapshot as to many ppl cant get onto them
13w39b also had issues of kicking players or refusing to let them in. If its stability that one need, all snapshots should be out of question lol
