Confirmation Status: Unconfirmed
Game Mode: Survival

 Description   

I'm playing on a multiplayer server in survival mode.
Sometimes (I could not figure out what triggers this bug), I can place blocks but cannot break solid blocks. I can break non-solid ones like torches and flower pots.
In this state, other players cannot see my avatar but can see the blocks I place. They can break the blocks placed by me.
Of course, I fully understand this is "survival" mode and I'm far from the spawn point.
The only solution is reconnecting to the server.
This has happened to other players, too.

No answer on query, assuming as fixed.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

No, generic left click works just fine in this situation.
Only breaking solid blocks and slabs does not work (+ I become invisible to other players).
I doubt this might be some sort of synchronization problem between server and client, but have no sure.
The only thing I remember is this happened after nether portal travel "this time", but also not sure that's the only case because I experienced this bug several times.

Maybe a similar issue to MC-766 ?
