Terminal seems to recognize 'minecraft-launcher' as a command, as it doesn't throw any errors, but when I run 'ps -au grep minecraft', the only process running is my command. When I run it from the desktop, I get the spinning cursor (which I imagine means it's doing something), but then it just disappears and nothing happens.
I noticed that every time I click PLAY it immediately closes the launcher and opens Minecraft. This really bothers me because I want to keep it open so I could see the Minecraft logs while I'm playing. Is there anyway I could do so without the launcher being open or is there a way to keep the launcher itself open?
I am making a program in Java that involves me starting up the Minecraft launcher through the program itself. I've seen a way to do this using ProcessBuilders and stuff like that. However, I do not want the launcher to run to the default minecraft folder directory (minecraft on mac, .minecraft on windows). Is there a way that I can run the launcher through my program with the files set towards a different directory?
There is no sound ingame (worlds and menus are silent) on any minecraft version. I'm using pipewire. All other multimedia works fine (playing music, videos etc). Have anyone encountered something like this before with this launcher?
@Jackleson The system's keychain aka. "OS level password manager" is used to securely store your session keys and is normally unlocked when you login to your computer. The launcher uses it on all systems, including GNOME/MATE, macOS and Windows, and so do all modern web browsers.
bryiewes,Yeah I figured out that it was a Manjaro issue, but now it simply will not install now since it leaves bad config or something behind. Manjaro just randomly over complicates the user experience and not because it is hard to understand just that nobody asked for that particular interaction. KDE Wallet is just badly introduced to the user. 90% of folks don't expect an OS level password manager to just shove itself into how they normally interact with a computer. worse its broken anyway. besides asking "why the fuck did it show up when i am literally just installing minecraft" it errors out when you select any option.
What do you mean by key nonsense. Also, manjaro has it's own issues that cause further issues. Don't try to bring the topic of "it's not required on windows" onto this site, windows and arch Linux are drastically different. My suggestions for your problem are to a. Use regular arch b. Use prism launcher (multimc was great, this is better, and polymc can't be trusted.) c. Don't play minecraft.

This free utility serves as a one-stop gateway to the Minecraft universe, encompassing the Bedrock version, the classic Java Edition, and the immersive Minecraft Dungeons.

Specially for newcomers venturing into Minecraft, experimenting with the Minecraft Launcher could be highly beneficial.
Download Minecraft Launcher for Windows now and unlock a seamless pathway to your favorite Minecraft titles. Explore, create, and embark on adventures across multiple Minecraft games without the hassle of juggling different launchers.
MultiMC is an alternative launcher for Minecraft. It allows you to have multiple, cleanly separated instances of Minecraft (each with their own mods, resource packs, saves, etc) and helps you manage them and their associated options with a simple and powerful interface.
MultiMC is based on the code hosted on GitHub. The source is only provided for the purpose of collaboration. The changes in the binary distribution compared to code are the inclusion of branding and API keys required for the launcher to function, along with packaging-related adjustments.
I'm trying to setup Minecraft for my daughters on their own OS X accounts of our new computer. At this point I'm using normal un-restricted accounts while I troubleshoot. Whatever account I "install" minecraft on it will work. But if I switch users and launch it then I get the error "Minecraft updater - Unable to start Minecraft, if you are running from a dmg, please drag to Applications and try again."
I am not running the DMG. I've installed it via drag and drop to the apps folder and then deleted the dmg etc. So it works on the users account that I install it but that error pops up on any other accounts that I try to open minecraft with later.
Ok, first off I installed it in the admin account originally and on my latest try. As far as "root". It's in the root applications folder but the "application support" folder for minecraft is in my admin user profile and not the root from what I can tell. When I get home maybe I'll try to move that folder and see if it helps. Though I'm not sure if that will confuse the app since it's likely looking in that specific location it was installed.
John, as of today, I have the exact same issue as you experienced. Although I did have Minecraft working on multiple user accounts on a MacBook Pro running 10.10.5 *before* updating to the new Mac launcher for Minecraft. After I updated to the new Minecraft launcher this morning, I started having this issue. I agree with your hunch that this is likely a bug in the new Minecraft launcher for Mac. Possible solutions:
I encountered this recently. What I discovered is that the .app is correctly installed in /Applications However the launcher and related data is installed to /Users//Library/Application Support/minecraft Every other user that attempted to launch the .app would fail with the error the OP reported. Simply changing the .app and it's Contents folder to R+W for everyone did not solve my particular issue.
However, uninstalling and reinstalling using the "legacy" installer did. Just make sure to backup your /Library/Application Support/minecraft folder first in case you have mods and other data installed there.
Lava launchers occasionally spawn in Horde of the Spore attacks, in the Zombie Homestead when it is first occupied, and in Horde of the Spore large and boss piglin bases. No more than 2 usually spawn.
