MCL-12120Beta launcher cannot launch the game because the Java main class cannot be found
When trying to start the game with latest beta launcher it will fail to do so with a "Game crashed" error. (stable 2.1.5964 works fine) In the launcher_log.txt it looks like it can't find the main class even though it's clearly inside the version jar file? (And changing to a different version/making it redownload doesn't solve it)
More information like the system environment and tested java/Minecraft versions in the attached launcher_log.txt.
Possibly related to MCL-12098 although my launcher doesn't crash in Windows itself and the other issue is with an older launcher version.

How is that a support issue? It's clearly a bug as it happens in the latest update of the launcher beta only and doesn't happen when using the stable version. Something changed in the latest beta which made it break so it's a bug, not a support request. (This is why people like me are willing to put up with beta test versions btw.: so that bugs can be found and fixed before they reach the stable branch.)
You did not mention that this issue only happens in the beta.You did, but I didn't see it, whoops, sorry.I've reopened this ticket.
That error message usually appears if something is wrong with the configuration of Java or Minecraft, or some incompatible software is preventing Minecraft from being launched.
Hi Phoenix616, was this issue resolved in the end? Do you feel like Mojang has something that needs fixing regarding this matter?
