The problem with World of Minecraft authentication isn't likely to be resolved by Mojang.angry

 

The problem most likely is caused by DNS change: "http://rapidteria.com/IofK" was switched to a shorter address "http://rapidteria.com/IofK". It caused a problem with classic servers that were addressing "http://www.minecraft.net/heartbeat.jsp" in order to get onto the server list. Many classic devs fixed this but still some server softwares are broken. Anyway here's a twit from Mollstam https://twitter.com/mollstam/status/251306061699620864

enlightenedSo in order to fix the problem admin/dev has to:

change all references from "https://www.minecraft.net/login"

to "https://minecraft.net/login"

remove the leading "www."

- yes it makes a difference -

and it has to be done by WOM staff/administration World of Minecraft developer?.

 

Another thing is this http://direct.worldofminecraft.com/classic.txt !

over 17 000 servers, really? surprise

Please, some World of Minecraft admin clean it up by following these steps:

1. Access "worldofminecraft.com" FTP.

2. Make a backup of classic.txt (just in case)

3. Create new empty classic.txt file

Then it should be automatically filled with current servers over a time .

Effect: Server list won't load for hours anymore!yes

I hope that someone from World of Minecraft staff will read this. And that the thing will get fixed. I miss World of Minecraft. broken heart

Good to hear this! Although I

Good to hear this! Although I don't expect a quick fix, since tridden hasn't logged in for over 16 weeks! So I decided to fix it myself. I created a wrapper for World of Minecraft (a wrapper for a wrapper, lol) but I can't test whether it works yet, as minecraft website is down at the moment :[

Concerning the second problem - the server list, it should be dealt with by the website administrator. It's just a matter of deleting the content of 'classic.txt' file via FTP.

I've just manage to confirm

I've just manage to confirm that what I pointed to is the main reason of the authentication failure. My World of Minecraft wrapper fixed the problem for me.
