(Edited to add: This crash log says I was in 1.7.4 - I tried opening a 1.7.4 map, but it is happening in 1.8. as well.)

I recently updated to 1.8 and went through all the steps, make sure you have everything updated and talking with one another. Things seemed to be working ok, but now my game won't even start up. I get a weird icon in the upper left hand corner of 2 green recycled looking arrows with the text "start up". The game stops as soon as that icon starts up. I'm hoping someone understands this crash log better than I do... Thanks in advance.
