Minecraft Forums

Hello, I just fresh installed Arch Linux with Minecraft from AUR. I've never had this kind of issue before. I have tried several jre's:

sudo pacman -Qs jre
local/jre7-openjdk 7.u65_2.5.2-1
    OpenJDK Java 7 full runtime environment
local/jre7-openjdk-headless 7.u65_2.5.2-1
    OpenJDK Java 7 headless runtime environment
local/jre8-openjdk 8.u20-1
    OpenJDK Java 8 full runtime environment
local/jre8-openjdk-headless 8.u20-1
    OpenJDK Java 8 headless runtime environment

The error code:

Please fix the error and restart.

Thanks.

Oh thank you very much! I'm gonna try it ASAP.

Same issue here. I read the thread baldios999 pointed to. Interesting, but...
I copied the cacerts file from both an old Windows 7 x64 Java 7 Update 60 installation AND Oracle's very own jre7 tarball, and I still get this dang error no matter what.
Also tried installing both Oracle's and OpenJDK runtimes, no good. Plus, I've also tried using both the AUR minecraft package AND Mojang's launcher, no good.
Thoughts? I don't know, Minecraft worked flawlessly on Fedora a month ago. Hmph.

I worked it out. Downloaded the jre7u67 tarball from Oracle, emptied the /lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk/jre folder and filled it with the files inside the only folder in the tarball. Everything's fine now. Thanks a lot for the tips.

Glad to hear it worked for you too. But I am still unable to boot ubuntu in order to download java and copy it to arch installation.There is a recent bug with Ubuntu update that breaks X server if you are using bumblebee until then ill stay
