Hello! I'm unable to connect to my server and it gives me the authentication error. I understand that it's handled on Mojang's end. (I've dealt with this since BETA). But for whatever reason it's only my server. I'm able to connect to everything else. I've tried clearing account cache, restarting, using a second Minecraft account, etc. Saw the post with the Dallas thing and was wondering if it had any correlation?
#Auth Server (Yggdrasil) timeout getting public keys

Correlation, yeah - any issue over the last 2 days has correlation.
But you know what they say - everyone who confuses correlation with causation dies.
So the auth situation is a network of the client saying "this server generated my auth token" and the game server saying "this server verifies auth tokens for me" and often it's not the same server.
Restarting the server, it reaches out and gets assigned to a new auth server for validation.
Restarting your launcher (usually) or logging out and back in (always) will get a fresh connection to an auth server to get that token.
Can you restart your server to clean out any cruft from the log, then try to connect and grab a log so we can see if there's any info there?
!llogs ⬇️
Please send some logs over so we can help resolve your issue. To access logs on your Minecraft server, please navigate to your server panel's File Manager and take the following path:
1. Open the Server's File Manager
2. Navigate inside the 'logs' folder
3. Click on "latest.log" to download it and send the file over Discord to this channel.
Gotcha, yeah I've tried the restarting of both the server and my launcher. I didn't notice anything server log out of the ordinary. The only errors I'm getting are the ones when i attemp to join "Authentication servers are down. Please try again later, sorry!
[13:58:38 ERROR]: Couldn't verify username because servers are unavailable"
Let's grab that log anyway. 🙂
Sometimes there's a little clue right above or below that. Sometimes.
Sounds good.. give me a minute I'll grab it.
I'm definitely not of the keen-eyed.. just saw this:
Yeah, I also get timed out trying to ping it from my home PC.
That server be havin' issues.
It does work in the browser, though.
Yeah odd. Do you know of a solution? Or just gotta wait it out.
I am also following this situation. My buddies and I are also having this same problem.
I'd wait it out a little bit. If it still isn't working in, say, 30 minutes, then a ticket might not be a horrid idea.
(This is the server getting the timeout in the log snippet, right?)
Those chiming in "same", can you include what datacenter your server's in, and what home ISP you use (if it isn't so small as to dox you, of course.)
Gotcha, I know Yggdrasil is a mojang auth server, but no where does it seem to be "down" per se outside of DownDetector having higher than average replies
new jersey home ISP google fiber
Im on Jersey servers and have Xfinity
Also, if you can get a response hitting https://api.minecraftservices.com/publickeys in your browser, might not be a horrible bit of data.
Jersey and breezeline
Auth Server (Yggdrasil) timeout getting public keys
We also get a response
I put in a ticket for this exact issue and got a instant response from support saying it was out of their control
Because 99% of the time it's a problem at Microsoft.
And they're swamped with the Dallas outage, so playing the odds and kicking the can on it helps them focus on things that are definitely issues.
Yeah (no hate on support) but I also submitted and got that same response (I'm on the same server as WINK)
I haven't submitted one yet, but seems like you guys got it covered. Please reply in this if your guys server comes back up or you find a fix! Thanks 🙂
just went thru my logs and am also seeing the Yggdrasil timeout
Since we've got multiple datapoints here, I dropped this thread on the back channel for someone to take a look at between Dallas craziness.
ditto haha
thank you!
widespread issue the fix is wait
yeah not great but out of these guys control it seems
Not yet, but I am noticing a few things. I have a few plugins that connect to the outside and none are currently connecting. Errors being check firewall, check internet connection, etc.
[13:33:03] [Craft Scheduler Thread - 21 - FastAsyncVoxelSniper/ERROR]: [com.thevoxelbox.voxelsniper.VoxelSniperPlugin] Unable to connect to api.curseforge.com to check for updates. Improper firewall configuration?
[13:33:18] [Craft Scheduler Thread - 13 - Oraxen/WARN]: org.apache.http.conn.ConnectTimeoutException: Connect to atlas.oraxen.com:443 [atlas.oraxen.com/5.135.152.216] failed: Connection timed out```
Just a few examples. Makes it seem like it's not just the auth servers.
Datacenter?
seems like multiple issues stacked with yours lol
Unfortunate lol
im not getting anything like that in my logs
Do you have similar plugins?
no but my buddy is checking his right now he has multiple plugins on his
I've got staff taking a look at this. Thanks for the extra hard data, Zor!
ours is back up and running
i restarted my server just to test it out and mine is working
same i am aslo back in
Seems like I'm up as well! Thanks all!
Are your servers still running well now? I was having the same issue since yesterday but I'm still having the
