Why can't I execute autohaven.jar?

[Dodominoe]

I installed Java and everything, but when I try to execute it I get a quick flash of a window popping up with a black screen and then immediately closing again.
Can someone help me?

If the client is crashing, try searching your drive for a file called "hs_err_pid.log" that should be placed in the root Java folder, wherever you told Java to install.

Also, what sort of hardware do you have in your computer--CPU, GPU, is it a laptop or desktop? What operating system and version? What version of Java do you have installed?

A few things come to mind as to the possible causes, but there has been several recent updates that have changed what the typical cause of crashes are, and don't want to make suggestions that aren't even going to work.

Do you get the splash screen/download window and then the actual client crashing, or is it the downloader itself that is crashing in the first place?

[Moosenheim]

try jarfix if it's a fresh install of java on windows.

i just get this error today. i think was the custom client but the original client have an error too.

Consider using "hide" instead of "spoiler" next time.

[MagicManICT]

Could you post the error you get from the base client? I'm not sure it'll be any different.

Generally, when you get an error like

SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out

it indicates there's a network problem. Either you're having a connection issue with the server, such as network outages, or there is some local software, typically antivirus or other security software, interfering with the connection. Make sure that java.exe and javaw.exe are allowed access to the network, and if possible to set specific Java apps, the appropriate Haven files--autohaven.jar, haven.jar (possibly others).

There may be other causes, but those are generally code issues (which most everyone would be having, at least intermittently), or beyond my skill to help with.
