Odd thing.

I had 2.0.27. Started up fine until tonight. So, I redownloaded the update, and tried to start it.

It tells me my version has expired.

Help?

Sounds like a bad download. I haven't touched the file up on the server since 2.0.27 first went up.

Try pulling update.jar down again.

Doesn't seem so. I downloaded the update.jar again, and it still tells me it's expired.

Weird, huh?

What version displays in the splash screen during load (before it tells you that it's expired)?

2.0.27.

Curious, isn't it?

Well...one way or another you've horked it. The security check is very simple...if you're online, it just sends the version up to the server and receives a response.

Your best bet is going to be to start from scratch: install v1, run the upgrade, then pull down the update.

Yup. That did the trick, alright. It's still weird; I didn't change anything on my system before that error occurred.
