I've recently started trying to install the World of Minecraft mod for minecraft. I tried following the tutorial (I have a mac), but I got the following error message after asking if I'd like to install a copy of minecraft.jar:

Fatal error:
Cannot write to directory "/Volumes/World Of Minecraft/World of Minecraft.app/Contents/Resources/Java/lib"
I'd appreciate any help you could give me on this matter!

And something else...

If it's any help, the World of Minecraft client is currently installed on my desktop, as I am not able to download directly into my applications folder (my computer has these restrictions for security reasons and cannot be waived).

Try this...

Two things:

Change the permissions using chmod

or

Sudo the application

Default location installation:

  1. Open Terminal
  2. rm -rf /Applications/World of Minecraft.app/Contents/Resources/Java/lib/minecraft*
  3. cd /Applications/World of Minecraft.app/Contents/MacOS
  4. sudo ./JavaApplicationStub
  5. Enter password for admin privs
  6. It will prompt to download minecraft.jar
  7. Enter minecraft.net username\password into client
  8. Click Sign In.

If you have it installed it a different location please adjust appropriately.

You then can quit the application and run from normal location.

If this doesn't work for you, please let me know the error, also make sure to remove important data out of it, such as password so other users don't see it when you paste it here.

Same Problems

The World of Minecraft login boots up fine for me, but when I try to sign in it shows:
"Your username/password may be incorrect or there are no servers to validate your login"
I saw the previous threads dealing with the issue, but my username/password IS correct.. I also tried making a new account just to test and I got the same results.
Is this a Mac issue? Or is it just World of Minecraft?

Yep. Same Problem here bro.

Yep I'm getting the same problem. I don't really understand it at all. I'm usually quite good at figuring out these kinds of problems, but, All has failed. So I'm trying to tell you you're not alone. However, i want someone to help us on this subject so I'm replying to the current conversation. I want some attention to come to this. To see if someone has figured it out. :P

Sorry for the inconvience.  :(

you are not permitted to use this software

upgraded to 2.0.5 today and since then I can't use hacks I instead get the message in the subject of this comment up by the enable hacks checkbox.  Some on chat are telling me I have been banned.  That makes no sense to me.  I have been a member for 2 1/2 weeks, have not participated in chat, have not griefed, have only gone to my realm and build as well as building on /realm youareadevil freebuild and /realm deadlypixel69 freebuild.  There are plenty of other like complaints in the chat on womrealms so I know I'm not alone in this.

Ok.

You haven't been banned, you'd know if you have been.

Can you give me more information? OS, Java, Version?

Does it work now? If it does what did you do to fix it?

Here's what I discovered so

Here's what I discovered so far:

1. You are correct, I haven't been banned.  I have no problem when I am at home.
2. It must have something to do with the network.  I experience these issues @ work (Minecraft great stress reliever) on my work machine as well as my personal machine.  This would be using the same account that I have no problem with at home.
3. The specific situation is: On windows client running in windows 7 64 bit( on different hardware) to the right of the Enable hacks checkbox is a message - You are not permitted to use this software (bizcomputing). 
Minecraft works fine but all hacks are disabled.
I'm a software developer by trade with 28 years of experience so if there's any additional information you need to diagnose the problem I should be able to help.
Thanks & I hope my information helps catch this bug.

TBH...

I'm glad I'm not the only one that uses it for stress relief. However; it sounds like you are just using an old client.

Have your tried updating to 2.0.5?

Otherwise try debugging it for more errors:

I definitely am on 2.0.5.  I

I definitely am on 2.0.5.  I run World of Minecraft via a dropbox shared folder so I am executing the same version @ home as I am at work.

I will see about debug.  It will be a challenge though because my issues are at work so I would have to do the debug at work.  If I find anything I'll report it back here.

Same issue!

When i try to run 2.0.5, i get the missing file warning at click download and I get that same message, except instead of the World Of Minecraft part, i get World of Minecraft Game Client. I use OSX, if that makes any difference.

We all have parental controls

We all have parental controls turned on, and we cannot write to home directory. I got the message you are not permitted to use this software and immediately associated it with parental controls.

I think...

1. Go open your application
2.RIGHT CLICK on World of Minecraft and DONT open it instead, do show contents.
3. Go explore in it until you find boot.jar
4. i think after that its says do u want to open it.
5. say yes
6. yay there is ur login
 
Hope this works for you guys.

Failed to start

Hey guys, I'm new to Minecraft and just logged in. Every time I tried to go a server (doesn't matter which one), a note popped up that said it "Failed to start Minecraft...Could not create context". The window turns all white, and I can't see what's going on in the server.  I'm not sure about what to do.

So...

Ok sorry. I am not sure if there is necro-posting rules here but either way. Is there anyone that knows how to fix this? I personally op a server and World of Minecraft would help but I have the "Authentication Error" problem. Any attempt at helping me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time!

EDIT: Ok its a problem with my minecraft.jar apparently... I am sorry for posting here and bothering you!
