Been going through the tutorials, removing older versions of java, and still not able to launch DreamLauncher. This is my terminal output after successfully doing all this:

java version "1.8.0_311"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_311-b11)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.311-b11, mixed mode)

Is there something that I'm missing still?

 

Thanks in advance

Are you sure that the cause of the launcher not opening is the java version?

Have you checked your firewall, if its blocking it from opening..

Try this:

1) go to dreambot.org and download the newest launcher.

2) place it on your desktop

3) open up CMD (run as administrator)

4) type: cd desktop

5) click enter

6) type: java -jar DBLauncher.jar

7) click enter

then let me know what's happening.

you can also run DBLauncher with whatever java version you want through the steps above, but just replace "java" with the path to the java.exe file found in the bin file of a JRE installation. if the path has spaces surround the path with quotations " " "

I'm on mac, this is what terminal gave me:

Also tried it with: java -jar/Users/(omit)/Desktop/DBLauncher.jar and it gave me the same thing. Not sure why it has randomly stopped working. Is there a type of Jarfix program I could try for mac?

You don't appear to have a problem with Java...

Before you do what im going to say, go to https://dreambot.org and download the launcher from there (A new copy) for a couple of reasons.. the launcher might be outdated and/or for security reasons due to what happened with babble a couple days ago,

Delete the DreamBot folder that's in the User-home directory (The folder with your pc name), if found of course.

Delete the  jagexcache folder (search for it and delete it manually)

Turn off your firewall and antivirus momentarily and then run it through all the ways (command line, double clicking, etc.. ). you can even try to run the client.jar that's in the DreamBot folder found in the user-home directory..

Wow! I can't thank you enough, deleting the folders and cache did the trick! I will definitely remember this if the issue ever arises again.

For anyone running on windows (I'm currently on windows 7)

if you;

-have the correct java version

-Java is displaying correct directory and version with the "where java" and "java -version" commands respectively

and you still cannot launch the DBLauncher, using jarfix worked for me

a quick google search came up with it, a quick download and you're all sorted (fingers crossed)

 

Hope this helps
