A few days ago i started to play the modpack Direwolf20 on a server with some friends. Today when i tried to login, first it didnt want to accept my email and password. So i changed my passwort acually a couple of times and it didn't work with any of these. A few minutes of raging after that i tried again and i just worked. So i figured out that maybe the Mojang Servers just have a couple of issues and that that was the reason it didn't work in first place.
Now i could login into launcher and start the game. I proceeded like normal and tried to join the server which resulted in getting the the loging error "Failed to login: Invalid session (Try restarting your game and the launcher)".
Obviously after that i restarted my game and the launcher and tried again, but i still got the error. I restarted my pc and tried it again, but it still didn't work. I reset my router, still didn't work.
I really ran out of ideas and started to try find the same issue online, but i couldn't really find the same issue i had online and a solution for it.
Again i thought maybe its just the Mojang servers and not me, but my two friends had really no problems at all to join the server. I also tried to login on the Mojang website and on the minecraft.net website. Both worked completely fine and i could login. The weird thing i really didn't understand was, that i could login into the launcher, start the game, but was unable to join any server. At this point it just couldn't be the Mojang servers.
I also tried to run a normal minecraft version without any mods, but i got the same error. I tried uninstalling minecraft and installing it again, but that didnt work either.
That's basicly what i did the last couple of hours and i just don't know what causes the error at this point and really need some help.
Would be glad if someone could help here. Thanks
Update:
It seems like Mojang is blocking specific Ip Ranges, which then causes the error we get. To me that's totally stupid, because the "Invalid Session Id" error doens't directly lead to our Ip adress being the problem. Really don't know what Mojang did there, but the only solution for us now is, to get another public ip which works.
Ip ranges which don't work:
102.xxx.xxx.xxx
132.xxx.xxx.xxx
134.xxx.xxx.xxx
160.xxx.xxx.xxx
185.xxx.xxx.xxx

Are you or someone else using the same account twice?
You can't use the same account twice, if the account is logging in on another location, the other session gets invalidated.
No i don't share my account with anyone. As far as i know at least. And with my few passwort changes, nobody should be able to be still logged in with my account.
I also did a test a few minutes ago where i used one of my friends accounts to login, to test if it maybe is my computer or my connection. And it turns out that i also couldn't access the server with the account of my friend, even tho he can still join without any problem. So it might be something wrong with my connection or my computer, which causes the error.
I did follow the Mojang status twitter page; It said "We’ve found and fixed an issue that resulted in invalid sessions. We’re continuing to monitor this closely. "
In my case the issue isn't fixed. I still get the message "Login failed: Invalid session"
The Log in the launcher says "12:52:28com.mojang.realmsclient.client.RealmsClientCould not authorize you against Realms server: Invalid session id"
A few other people already commented on the tweet reporting the same issue I still face. Obviously there is still a problem
related to MCL-1657? I've been getting invalidated sessions lately when switching between PC's, only been an issue since the latest updates...
(deep regression of the above linked issue)
@unknown, while you were typing your rant against me, the login issue was already investigated for some time by Mojang: https://twitter.com/MojangStatus/status/1000979518922919937
And sorry for having spent my spare time at the weekend voluntary here at the bug tracker and forwarding that issue yesterday to Mojang.

Hi, the issue seems to have been resolved.
I'm still on the 102.xx range and my launcher now remembers my credentials and I'm able to login to both online and local servers.
Thank you for resolving the issue.
Thanks for reopening
