INTERNAL EXCEPTION: JAVA.NET.SOCKETEXCEPTION: SOFTWARE CAUSE

[DerekB]

In the Minecraft server I purchased, I keep getting the error:

INTERNAL EXCEPTION: JAVA.NET.SOCKETEXCEPTION: SOFTWARE CAUSED CONNECTION ABORT: SOCKET WRITE ERROR

I haven't the slightest clue what do do. I am able to join the server and walk around for a bit, then it kicks me off and displays that. Google has failed me. I was hoping the intelligent minds here could help.

Does this happen to you when joining other servers or just your server hosted here?

[DerekB]

Other servers as well. I should have included that.

Alright try the following:

Update Java to the latest version (if applicable).
Try disabling your firewall/antivirus temporarily to see if either of those is causing a conflict.

As mentioned updating Java should clear that up.

Make sure to use Java 7 instead of 6, and 32 or 64 bit depending on your setup.
Depending on 32 or 64 bit, you may have to adjust the command line for the call to java as I think each version is located in different locations, and the executable is named different.

I would have to look at our setup, but I think we used 32 bit on a 64 bit server because of other issues, but can't look into it right now. Off to work.
