More than a year ago I installed Minecraft on a Debian workstation. The user was quite happy and had no interest in upgrading it or networking it. Now they want it upgraded to the latest version to support mods. I try to connect to the Minecraft server and I get the below error. Any tips on what I should do?
As an aside I've upgraded the system to Debian/Testing, I think it was running Squeeze when I first connected to the Minecraft server (which you have to do to get game data files etc).
java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://session.minecraft.net/game/getversion.jsp? at
Can you actually resolve and access that URL (http://session.minecraft.net/game/getversion.jsp?)? I just tested from a bunch of Linux servers around the place (dfferent ISP's) and some can resolve and some can't so maybe there is a DNS issue at the moment? www.minecraft.net appears to resolve just fine though.
