Can't Connect Anymore(Was able to yesterday)

As the title states for some reason I can no longer connect. when I try to login I just get Error: <!doctype html public "-//ietf//dtd html 2.0//en"><html><head><title>404 not found

etc.etc.

It doesn't even matter if anything is in the PW field, that's what I get and can't even make it to the patcher. It started when I launched and it failed patching, I launched again and it failed patching again, and I launched again and now I just get that error.

I don't know why it's not working because I was just playing yesterday...

I tried a variety of the misc. suggestions around the forums but nothing has worked so far...I suppose next thing to try would be re-install but I don't feel like downloading the game and installing it all over again unless I HAVE to. So can anybody help me out?

I'm on vista, UAC is disabled, firewall is disabled

What is in your client.cfg file?

RootConfigFilename = "client_default.cfg";
LanguageCode = "en";
StartupHost = "su1.ryzom.com:40916";
Application = {
"ryzom_live", "./client_ryzom_rd.exe", "./"
};
R2EDExtendedDebug = 0;


I've tried adding
BackgroundDownloader = 0;

But it doesn't help, and if I try launching the background downloader that line disappears out of the .cfg and the background downloader doesn't work anyways :S

Try copying the data from the default config file in to that one maybe?

to fix it, you need to edit and etc.etc. it should fix the problem.


oh why do ppl always cut the error message before the juicy bits....

anyway, replace client.cfg with the 'absolute minimum' content because you missing 'StartupPage' from yours.

Code: Select all

RootConfigFilename   = "client_default.cfg";
StartupHost          = "su1.ryzom.com:40916";
StartupPage          = "/login/r2_login.php";
InstallStatsUrl      = "http://su1.ryzom.com:50000/stats/stats.php";
PatchServer          = "http://dl.ryzom.com/patch_live";
InstallWebPage       = "http://dl.ryzom.com/installer/";
running the fixer should of fixed it also.

It worked here.
I use Vista and it worked now.
I have also found that the client.cfg will keep changing unless you change the line

SaveConfig = 1;

to 0.

This way it wont overwrite the client.cfg file anymore.

Hope that helps...
