[Resolved] Unable to load resource: http://www.wurmonline.com/client/wurmclient.jnlp

[Chimpulous 1]

Hi, im trying to run the java file but to no avail. I have scoured the internet for solutions but i'm at my wicks end. I have tried turning off firewalls, making direct connections with java, deleting the cache, reinstalling java amongst other things...

 

Please can you help?

Hello,

 

For as far as I have seen, these (Unknown Source) errors always seem to be connection based. It seems something, somewhere on your computer or your route, is blocking your access to the wurm servers. Are you perhaps on a corporate network instead of a home network? Company networks (especially military based) often seem to block wurm (or java in specific). 

 

Perhaps an anti virus threat detection / anti malware program that is a bit too cautious with Java? What security program(s) are you using?

 

Did it work before? It might just be a temporary error in your routing somewhere, outside of your influence if so.

 

There might be a way to check if it is a problematic network or something on your PC. Do you have another network nearby you could connect to and see if wurm loads that way? Can also try to turn your mobile phone into hotspot / tethering mode, connect through this, and launch wurm. Your mobile phone should have no restrictions this way, and hence if you still get the error, it is rather certain the problem is in your PC, while if it does connect, the problem is most likely in the network. Having this knowledge makes it much easier to find out what is causing this

 

A VPN might be one way to try as well, if you have access to this.

Hi, im connected to a home router, i know it isn't the connection as my brother was able to launch the client downloader fine, while on the same network. Its my first time playing so ive never tried to get it working before. 

 

Just uninstalled my malware software and it worked,  thanks so much for the suggestion Viti ?.
