I am having Ubuntu server 15.10 with Multicraft. When I make an server, and try to join I get following error; "ERROR Couldn't verify username because servers are unavailable" Java version: Code (Text): openjdk version "1.8.0_66-internal" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_66-internal-b17) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.66-b17, mixed mode) IPTables: Code (Text): Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination [FIXED] Fixed it myself; If anyone ever stumbles upon this, you are most probably using openjdk java version, delete openjdk version of java and install Oracle JRE version. Google should help you with that
