EOL can't TCP connect

Post by swirt »

Hi i'm having troubles with EOL. I get TCP connect error when using the ip, 205.196.222.34 found from one of the 2012 news article. Is there a newer ip or something?

Hello! The ip you're using is correct. Do you also have "TCP Port: 4460" and "UDP Port: 4461" in the settings?

Have it worked before? Are you registered on the site, and using same user and pass in eolconf? Double check ip and ports mentioned above, make sure 2nd nick tickbox is unticked.

Make sure the ip does not end with whitespace which can happen when you copy the ip from some random place.
Example: "127.0.0.1 " is wrong and won't work "127.0.0.1" is correct and will work osv.

iirc this is what caused problems for ramone earlier this year.

Ulaanaa would like to come back to play elma on EOL, but he can't connect.
1st, he can't open the website itself, yes he has the right url since i pasted him my working link
2nd, he got the right user/password, IP and ports

Not sure how else I can help him, ideas?

Maybe internet provider blocks it for some reason. First thing I would try is to switch to the Google Public DNS: https://developers.google.com/speed/pub ... docs/using
Would be nice to see Ulaanaa playing again. :)

So have you tried my suggestion? You need to find your connection options, they look something like this:

And put these DNS servers on bottom. Might work...

Can you show "Details" of the error message when trying to open the site?
Do you get an IP address back if you type "nslookup elmaonline.net" in cmd?

Try to erase DNS cache in your computer.
Open cmd and type "ipconfig /flushdns"

Also remove all cache in Chrome browser (from beginning).

I haven't played elma for 2 months and now I have a problem. Recently I installed new Windows 7 and copied Elma from old hard drive. Sometimes I get an error: lost tcp connection to the server - and I can't connect at all. What is happening?

So yea basically when this starts happening, that people can't connect but current people online can still stay there, means that server is reaching its memory limit and needs a restart (there's a memery leak in code). Optimally we make it restart by itself every 2 weeks or so to avoid it, but untill we get that set up you need to alert me. Discord mention is a good way because that also get's me a notification on phone. Otherwise irc highlight or email sunehs@gmail.com since email I will notice quickly if at work.

Sometimes antivirus programs/firewall/such block Elma, you should try allowing eol.exe in those, or take them down momentarily and try to run EOL to see if that's the problem.

You may just want to hit f12 to reconnect, maybe try a couple of times if it doesn't stick.

Code: Select all

08/01 15:51:42 <@Markku-> but sounds like it's running out of memory again
08/01 15:57:21 < Jappe2> can that cause those unable to conects?
08/01 15:57:53 <@Markku-> yea, it keeps existing connections but can't create new ones
08/01 15:58:30 <@Markku-> i can't connect either
so should work again normally after server restart

Same problem again. Eol needs like 30s to open then "error : tcp connect".

-Didn't change anything in eolconf
-Didn't change anything (antivirus, firewall, internet connection- everything is same)
