oh the server is up but login is not allowing entry it is the same the last 2 days seems an intermittant bug that is playing merry hell to find

restarting login seems to fix it for a while but without standing beside it all day and night there seems no way to keep it stable at the moment 

also gating docking and undocking and towing seem do drop you if you are in game while the login is broke and then you cant get back in

Somebody trying to hack the login server?

it is possible but if it is it smacks more of a dos attack and who I ask you would hack a bunch of enthusiasts with no cash on a small server

One post for an outage please. This is all spam for me and unfortunately when I'm not available no amount of posting is going to change it sooner. The server is struggling with a problem right now that remains hard to diagnose. This may persist for some time yet. We can only fix what we can understand, the game client is 21 years old and is dealing with modern tech, the "login server" is what makes sure your connection is secure, but instead of the inv-301 you'd get if it were something more simple like a certificate, the actual process is shutting down. Normally, this wouldn't be an issue but normally the main thread of the game server would restart it, and it just seems to have mysteriously stopped doing so. Unfortunately, it cannot be restarted out of the program and still work so there isn't an easy workaround.

Then let people help you. Give them access to the source, give them access to the servers, and let them actually, materially, help you. Many have offered over the years, and each seems to have been shot down for one reason or another. You are alone because you choose to be, not because you have to be. And I suspect that sentiment would be echoed by the broader playerbase, but maybe I'm wrong, so I'll let this post be my wind vain on that front.

 

P.S. if you're still demanding an NDA be signed to help, drop it. On $5000/year of donations, there's no (practical) way to legally enforce it. It's an empty threat that puts a bad taste in the mouth of anyone with enough brain power to realize how pointless that threat and document are.

Those things are partially required by what we set up and how we set it up. I'm not 100% alone, but to be fair the server doesn't usually have this constant downage problem. 

Don't take this as me being rude, take it as the same thing Zack pushed earlier in this thread when he was subscribing. Quit just talking in it. Talk in another thread if you want to say more than "server down".

I don't take anything at night because my phone disables alerting after a certain hour and there's no one available to work overnight on bringing it back up.

While I understand your point of view, what you think you see is not what is happening.

My main reasons for shooting anyone down generally had more to do with behavior and attitude than anything else, mostly because the team once faced a lot of drama and it caused issues getting things moving forward. This is one of the main things the team, such as it is, does not want to see back because we all get along fine now and there's little if any drama/bs ever.

login server seems to be down again. fwiw, each time i've seen this happen, ship movement also seems to stop being recognized in game. warping still works, but manual ship movement is ignored and the ships will always rubberband back to their original positions.
