Support::General SupportPost all topics here having to do with errors while trying to connect to an EQEMu server but not about the setup/running of the Server itself.
One word.....ditto....
What causes this to happen? Bad codes or just random error?
You see trev... this is the stuff i wanna kno about.
Grr! having a lack of knowledge is really beginning to irritate me.......
Edit: Could it have anything to do with that security breach thing I am seeing at the top of all of the forums? Having a conflict in the codes that they skewed to try and fix an earlier problem...?
It isn't directly related to the password hacking issue. But I believe it is a result of a MySQL config change that doodman made shortly after that happened to prevent some other hacking related issues on the host box. I don't know exactly what he changed to start this issue happening, but it appears that when it happens, the Login Server completely looses contact with MySQL, so it can't access the database for users to log in or for servers to fully connect to it.
The only way to resolve it currently is direct interaction from KLS or doodman as they are the only 2 with access to the host right now.
Again, even though this issue is much less common right now, I expect it should be completely gone when the new LS solution comes into effect.
As far as I understood this, there is a problem with the database connection since there was an update or better they closed a backdoor for hackers. As long as my account is safe it doesn't matter to me.
