Thanks for reopening this one. It's been affecting our player base for all the snappies/pre-releases since the Netty libs were added.
I'm no expert but feels like a client side issue to me.
My client setup is as follows:
Java: Oracle JRE 1.7.0_45
OS: Win7 64bit Ultimate SP1
On the server side: our hosting was very recently migrated, and we had the same issue when trying to connect to both machines
old hosting Windows Web Server 2008 R2 64bit + Oracle JRE 1.7.0_04 64bit
new hosting Centos 6.4 64bit + OpenJDK 1.7.0_25 64bit.
Good luck with the fix, I'll be standing by to help test it 🙂
Thanks for reopening the original issue. It wasn't clear to me if comments on that one would be noticed!
Still have this problem with 1.7.1.
@William it sounds like you have a slightly different issue, but it could be related anyway due to changes in the network libs.
Quoting one of the commenters on MC-34947: this describes my situation:
"I can consistently produce this error by successfully logging into the server, clicking disconnect, and attempting to reconnect to the same server. The screen pauses at "Logging in..." and then gives this error when the login times out."
Confirmed working in 1.7.2!! Awesome. Many thanks!
