Login Bug?

Post by theroze »

So, the other day, I wanted to join G5's Pro Fortress. As you know, you have to authenticate in order to play there. The first time, when I typed in the /login thingie, nothing happened. I did it another time, still nothing. After 6 times, still nothing happened. jimma had the same problem at the same time. I was waiting some moments, then the login protocoll came up, followed by the message in the attached screenshot. This has never happened before, I suppose.

So, I'm wondering, what's this?

The odd text is whatever the login script chose to print, or rather, what the web server sent as the answer of the login script. So you'd need that checked. However, I'm puzzled; the login then succeeded? Was there a delay between the two messages?

Yes, after all, the login worked, and the message occured, without a delay. The only delays were the login ones. But still, this hasn't happened before in any way, so I have no clue why it actually is now.
EDIT: Ah, this could be the problem.

I also got to say that the login only worked through the @forums.

Yeah, the DNS problems could also confuse the web server. If it happens again after the general problems are sorted out, do tell.
