@rmcdud np I am not a java guy. @ panther ya might want to have a look at this. Or maybe @redrum

redrum

@rmcdud Does the game actually crash? Or does it just show the error message that you can then close? Also what version are you using? I play all the time offline (like on an airplane) and just see a message popup indicating I don't have internet connectivity but I can still play.

RmcDud

@redrum no the game crashes and the only thing left open is the JAVA error console

redrum

@rmcdud Ok. Are you on the latest stable version 1.9.0.0.9687? Available here: https://triplea-game.org/download/

RmcDud

@redrum running Ver.1.9.0.0.3625 of Tripla ill try the new version. Didnt know it had been updated

RmcDud

Tried New Triplea ver but still got the same error. 0_1526505558955_JavaerrorReport2.txt
Game runs perfectly if there is an internet connection.

Panther

@rmcdud
So please - when connected with the internet - do as follows:

Start TripleA
Start a Local Game
When the game has started find the Menu Debug and then click Show Console
When the Console has opened, click the button Properties
Then click Copy to Clipboard
Paste in this thread

Thank you.

@RmcDud Any chance you tried to rename your PC at any point or something?
Because the client tries to resolve lenovo-shezbit-n585 and fails doing so.
I'd guess executing ping lenovo-shezbit-n585 in cmd/bash will result in an error as well.

RmcDud

Lonovo shizbit is the name I gave it when I installed the os never been changed.

@rmcdud

From the line
java.home=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre
I see that you are not using JRE from java.com.

IIRC openjdk is not fully compatible with TripleA, so I recommend that you try Java from java.com instead.

Please report back if this resolves your issue.

RmcDud

@panther cool man ill give it a try and let you know how it works out thanks

@RmcDud I think I know how to fix your issue (although I don't know what might've caused it):
Could you post the content of your /etc/hosts file (or execute cat /etc/hosts in the terminal depending on what you prefer) and post the content here?
Adding or modifying a single line in this file could already fix your issue.
