= Unable to find valid certification path =

Problem

You cannot log in with Minecraft, and the crash report shows the following issue:

sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

Cause

This problem is caused by ESET preventing Minecraft from gaining access to Mojang's login servers.

Solution

You can resolve this issue by disabling the SSL protocol scanning - this will though result in weaker security for your system.

If that doesn't result in a solution for you, people have also found that completely uninstalling ESET has resulted in a solution for them.
