Title: Can't retrieve server information
Post by: Addlee on February 24, 2012, 12:38:31 pm
Get this everytime I open up my samp,

HostName: (Retrieving info...) 178.63.52.144:7777
Address:  178.63.52.144:7777
Players:  0 / 0
Ping:     9999
Mode:     
Map:     

Can't connect to any argonath server at all, it has been like this for a long time now and has been like this 24 hours a day. I did a unbann request but Kojak confirmed that neither my name or IP is banned and he also unbanned just in case.
I have no firewall blocking samp, also I got the newest samp.
Have anyone had a simuler problem? I have no ideas on what can be wrong, if you got an idea please post it  :roll:

Very weird.

Maybe try re-installing SA:MP? Or maybe try on another computer, or a friend's house that lives by you.

Turn off your route wait for a couple of moments then turn it back on and try again.

Just to confirm only Argonath is not visible?

I have re-installed both SA:MP and SA several times, checked on my other computer and there it was the same. I figure my friend have been gaming so he must have access, and Kojak confirmed that I wasen't banned, so I should be able to access my account and go online at my friends house.

The IP range in which your IP resides was blocked due to the flood join attacks on February 5, which was about the last time you could see the server online.
Your IP is now allowed connection, which means that if we spot a flood join from it next time we will be talking to your provider for a disconnection from all of the internet.
I do hope that it was not you who was involved but a nearby IP.

I discovered this about two or three weeks ago and didnt mind it then, the hole february I was busy playing swtor, so I haven't been so updated on the server.
I never heard about this flood join attack but you did the right thing banning the IP, and if it would appear again from my IP please do disconnect me again.
As for the problem I had with retrieving server info it still exist, maybe I got to wait for an hour or so until the effect kicks in, I'm going to have a close eye on my samp luncher and try to join now and then to see if it worked, ill reply in a few hours or tomorrow with news.

Thanks for helping
Regards, Jax

the problem remains unsolved.

If anyone got an idea of what the problem can be, please post the idea.

You will need to contact Gandalf again to allow your ip through as it seems you have a dynamic ip.

actually, his IP has not changed in his postings, which means his IP is static if he has reset his router.

I was able to connect to the server yesterday, but now the same problem happened again.
