I was amazed at how little this topic received any attention... your advice just lures the fish in don't it? Perhaps we are the only two in this entire world that have this issue? I checked servers, minecraft is operational. Internet works, I'm here aren't I? System is
XP 64bit
Video card 1GB PCIE
dual core 2.0Ghz
and your mom
At least someone is asking a question about it this time...
It is windows XP 64 bit. I did go into the program folder found that it says it was unable to verify
Native Launcher Version: 34
Operating System: Windows XP SP3
Application Hash: 175f2b59d63d17f580f664c195ca8bb82666d0eb
Java Version:
x64: 1
Starting download of: https://launchermeta.mojang.com/mc/launcher.json
Encountered internet exception 2148098052: The signature of the certificate can not be verified.
This was a txt the minecraft program folder created inside of it... for some reason JAVA or whatever thinks that I am using a 32 bit OS hence at the top 'SP3" and XP 64bit never had a SP3. SP2 was the last SP made for it. I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling Java by the way.
It may be helpful to also mention, I have 2 partitions. One with XP 32bit, and this one I am trying to install it on which is 64bit XP Pro. Minecraft is already installed on the 32bit partition.
I do not use security software of any kind other than windows firewall--no AV works just fine for me--I have no need for it. I already have minecraft in that list of safe applications on windows firewall.
My ad blocker is in my Firefox browser only--its just a Firefox plugin. I doubt that is the problem tho. I have this system the same way as my 32 bit system and minecraft was able to run on that just fine... its just I think on this system there is just one difference... just I don't know what it is. Everything I install, I install the same on all my systems that have ran Minecraft just fine. I know what I'm talking about, I'm on in college to become an IT pro. So, to anyone else who's is reading, I am no pc armature. Aside from the college I have 16 years experience with computers on top of that. This must be an issue I have not learned yet in college.
Sorry for this double post... maybe I should ask Mojang themselves? I paid for the game, bought it, scouts honor... this was one game I did not torrent.... I bought 3 accounts! and I run into this? Its a matter of saying thinks for not ripping us off like U did the other developers. Truth is, those others, they sucked, and I felt if I was going to pay for something with a 60 dollar price tag I wanted to see the whole game before I bought it--which I eventually did buy dead space and south park stick of truth and other games--I felt the games were worth the price tag. Considering all the crappy south park games that came out in the past--like on the N64...
Its just here I am with a minecraft game that the only way to play it is to shut down my 64 bit windows and load up my 32bit windows xp... but my server runs on the 64 bit!! This sucks.
I don't care for mineraft anymore--the game is old and stale unless they add some things to it to make it more fun... however, I do care about my server and I need the game to run... blah blah blah--U server owners should know... I need it to run in order to keep an eye on my server and attend to my guests... so what??? what should I do if nobody in this whole wide world can help? can't believe this us three who posted are the only ones who have this issue out of a world's population of a few billion people... and only one of us could claim we had a solution? Think about the people we could help who also run into this issue?
Sure the game runs for U and I'm sure we are all dying to help with this one huh?I'll give it a week before I nag again with a third post... but then it would become a triple post huh? Avoid it then and help us... I am not going to stop with the posts until this issue is resolved.
Bottom line is, the guy who started this post sat on empty! Nobody helped him. I'll break rules if it means to discover a solution too this issue. I'll quad post even. I WILL keep pushing this subject for the sake of myself and others who have this problem... just deal with it... its just an internet forum, I'm sure U all will continue to live in spite of my spammed posts.. as I said, I will give it a week before I post a third post... I promise that...
PS: I have a broken hand so my typing sucks a little bit right now.
The problem may just be that the OS is confused or that when trying to validate a certificate, the application is not sure weather our system is 32bit or 64 bit. Lets look more closly to the error log that minecraft made here. See where it says XP SP3? But, the 64bit version of xp never had SP3 it only had SP2, but see there also it reports it as a 64 bit version of XP as well. Something is confusing our apps as they try to validate the certificates. Question is how do we correct it so that it reports properly the OS type of bit of our system? See I have to use a 64bit version of JAVA on a 64bit version of windows, but Minecraft thinks that my OS is XP SP3? When XP64bit never had SP3 released for it... its confused... I have XP32bit installed on my other partition... not on this one. One drive is drive C (32bit of windows) This other partition is drive F (this 64bit version...)

having the same issue. I have 3 gigs of RAM on a 64bit computer and I've tried the security things. I am a bit of a noob when it comes to computers but all i want to do is play minecraft so if someone could help that would be great.
Previously, Minecraft had been installed. The new java-free minecraft launcher came out so i decided to download it. To my luck, it doesn't work and the message "Unable to download minecraft. Please try again later." appears. I've tried reinstalling over the course of a week and I've been checking this forum in that time also. Nothing has helped.
I am not a noob with PC's I will research this, but someone else researching it too would help--three heads are better than one--I might find something. I have 16 years self-taught experience as well as in college studying IT professionalism also known as Computer Science technology. I have only studied 6 classes so far (Applications, success class, communications class, [and now I am studying hardware, operating systems, and composition] and in the operating systems class they have not made a mention of this issue, let alone not sure if they will bring it up or not)), so I do not know of this issue. What I do know, is, I had a Frontier technician look at it, and even they could not figure it out. Trust me, that info I provided is vital if someone can really look at it and maybe they and I can find out what it is. We believe something is blocking the verifications of security tickets, this or something is not matching correctly on the net. When it comes to certificates many things have to match up and OS is one of those things as well as the application's dependencies.
I figured out the solution to my problem! the new none java version of the minecraft download is only compatible with windows 7&8 i believe, therefore if you are running windows vista or xp it will give the "unable to download minecraft please try again later" message. I solved this solution by reinstalling the minecraft.exe file and running it. and it worked! hope this helps anyone else

no because that same one is working fine on my XP 32bit partition. Its just the XP64 bit it wasn't working on. Either way I found my own work around. I copied and pasted from the XP 32bit partition over to he xp64 bit, and downloaded the launcher from the website again, its working now. I just had to copy and paste those files from C:.... applicationdata/minecraft. to the same spot on drive F where the xp64 bit is located. I have everything running on all my other systems. Windows 8, 7, vista, xp32 and xp64.... I'm all good to go. thanks for all your help.

Don't forget to reply if you find a fix, it helps technicians like myself solve problems!
Java won't allow SSL connections to be intercepted (intercepted connections are insecure and unverifiable)
If you have an Antivirus or web security program that scans SSL, try disabling that function.

PS: I have a broken hand so my typing sucks a little bit right now.
Minecraft is just trying to make a standard network connection and that connection fails.
So the problem is somewhere in the combo of (your Java + your OS + your other software + your network configuration)
The error that's being reported is this one:
Which is a windows error code.
If you click on the hyperlink in your log for the launcher.json file does it work in your browser? or do you get a similar error?
One google result I found for this T_E_C_S error pointed at this MS advisory: https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2661254

EDIT: I guess I can use the old launcher until I find a fix.
