MCL-14985 Windows Minecraft Launcher DNS Resolve Issues Fixed

Comments

Hello @Ined, thank you for providing updates to this ticket.  I'm glad to hear that and on my end, everything works as expected.  Kind regards!

Well that was a time waste, looks like the issue was an installation Proxifier which seemed to affect my HyperV instance when testing.  With Proxifier v3 installed, it seemed to cause the problems mentioned above.  There's a new beta of Proxifer and with that installed, those problems seemed to have gone away.

I'm still confused as to why this was an issue in the first place.  I would like to see how DNS looksups are made within the launcher.  Out of a couple hundred programs installed, this is the only one I've had networking issues with.  But none the less, it seems to be an issue on Proxifier's end.

Thank you for taking the time though to recreate the environment IonicEcho.

Sure, again - please read the entire issue.  It's not an issue with my internet, ISP, DNS, etc.  Since I can perform DNS searches with nslookup and any other software on the same system, it's not an issue with my computer.

And there are already issues regarding the messages found above with,

  • Couldn't load launcher core from ...

  • Sorry!  Make sure you are online and try again

  • Logged in Minecraft Launcher claims No Connection while the system does have internet

  • Progress stopped mid-download during an update

I'm not sure if my issue is a duplicate of the issues presented above, but I do know this issue does cause those problems.

And a simple question, why does Chrome, Internet Explorer, nslookup, Outlook,, Uplay, (do I need to continue?) work as expected while the Minecraft Launcher does not?

If you are saying I have some setup that prevents this individual application from resolving domains, that is not the case.  Again, with Chrome, nslookup, and really any other software I've used, I have yet to run into an issue where resolving domains was a problem.
