login difficulties

[discoDan]

I can't get past the login screen. As of yesterday I could play, but I got home from work and tried to get online and for whatever reason I can't.

I get the message: "A connection to the server could not be reached. Please check your internet connection to make sure you are online." It then goes on to list several links to the Sony site.

I tried searching the forums and have not come across anything of this sort. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any advice would be appreciated.

I think the EQEmu login server is having trouble, your not the only one getting this.

[Woodlife Treestrider]

i have the exact same problem, I could login earlier today, but not anymore.

OK im glad I saw this I thought I somehow broke my EQ or something. Good to know its not just me. Hope its fixed soon I want to test out the changes I just made!

I'm glad I'm not the only one having this problem. Played earlier but can't login to server selection at all.

[m0ld]

When is this going to be fixed? I want to play :(

[Kikaro]

If I get in I will post that its working. been trying for a while though. This sucks.

[Kikaro]

Ok its working! Everyone go play!

[BarladoreVZ]

I got everything setup, but still not getting to server select screen.

LoginServer.ini

### --- This file tells world.exe what loginserver to connect to.
### --- Leave the account and password field BLANK.

### --- Public Login is un-supported as is LAN playing. We reccomend using the EQEmu.net Loginserver ALWAYS.

### --- NOTE: Starting 6-1-2002, you can no longer use the word "Server" in worldname.
### --- NOTE2: the word "Server" is added to each server automaticly.

Any suggestions? =)

What version of the server are you using?

[Melciah]

EQEMu 0.6.0-DR1
5.9DR2_alpha_1.sql
Fully patched to Live, and have checked and tried many a setting for the eqhost.txt file

Anything else needed, just let me know...and thanks in advance for the assistance.

Dante

Edit:PS Is it possible to run the server on the same PC as a client w/o the miniport, I'd rather have a server others can join as well.

[Kikaro]

Login server is down currently so no one can get online. Very sad.

[Melciah]

Ok its working! Everyone go play!

I take it this post is wrong then? hehe

Just to make sure the problem I'm getting is the same as everyone else due to the servers being down.....

It goes to logging in, please wait....waits a short bit, then goes to:

"A connection to the server cannot be reached"
Asks to check net connection and the standard check for downtime....etc.

Just want to get as much done as I can so when the servers come back up, I should work =)

Dante

[Kikaro]

Yes that tiem on the 20th when I made that post it was up again but as of right now on the 23rd it is down again.

[Melciah]

Oops, lol....my bad, guess I've been up way too long....

Gonna hit the hay. BTW, is it possible to setup miniport to allow people outside of your local network?

Dante
the tired one

[Melciah]

Update

Got everything working with a Miniport Server.
