View Full Version : can't connect to server
keep getting connection fail page...are others getting the same?
Haven't been able to connect to server for a while (15 min's or so)
A general problem?
Same here, I was in the game, had a small problem so refreshed, ever since i get the maintenance page when i try to log back into the game.....
I hope someone ingame reads this and warns people NOT to refresh at this moment, and i also hope some MOD will notice this thread and contacts BB about it.

Am also unable to log in. On this server I get a "connection failed" message and on Ares server I get a Maintenance page.

Same problem here, I also posted on the other thread.
Game was/is active, we just cant get in...no maintenance is going as far as i am aware, so there must be a bug somewhere on the server.

Same here, have never known them to do Server Maintenance on a Sunday.
there is allready a thread about this, here: https://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/36743-cant-log-in
Threads Merged
Must be a problem with the server wich just popped up, this certainly aint a planned maintenenace.
Forum itself was offline a while too, but working again, lets hope the game will be back soon too.
"NOT HAPPY JAN" !!! fellow aussies would understand

'The Powers that BB' are aware of the problem and are investigating.
Please stand by...
Thanks Aszbhar, dont know if those who where ingame lost their game or not, but if not i do hope they get warned NOT to refresh at this moment.
Awaiting with impatience...
1d prem lost on a Sunday as not able to use the expected extension on a weekday :(

Depending on how long this will last, I am pretty sure that we will get a mail from bb with some nonsense about a sudden storm or huricane or such, and a pack of compensation goodies including a day free premium.
Hopefully; otherwise an infight with Support for me
No it has not been resolved, I cant log in and nor can any of my friends

Hello folks!
We're working to resolve the network disruptions and should have the game accepting new login requests soon. In the meantime, if you're still in the game, avoid logging out if possible.
Thanks for your patience and understanding!

It takes some time, but the game should proceed to load up if you wait a while once you get to that point.
got stuck on the loading screen for 30 mins waiting for the tick to turn green. cant load addy maps it just gets login Q inistilisation then it gets stuck there so have to refresh only to get stuck on the loading screen again.
Edit.
addy r not working right. some attacks go in but they get stuck. no win or lose they just get stuck for ages then suddendly without notice the gens r back in their garrisons while still fighting in the camp. other gens wont even attack. get the drum role to say they r going but dont go so have to send them several times before they eventualy set off. the tick goes from the gen to show they r attacking but a few mins later the tick is back to say they r waiting for orders. so the attacks r getting cancelled or stuck.
So my advice is dont start any addy or expos till the problem is fixed.

I don't believe it will load... I've waited at least 10-15 minutes, the request to http://w01bb01.thesettlersonline.com/authenticate fails over and over.
By the way, who thought it was clever to make an authentication request of all things with http instead of https???

Same here :(
Same problem it does not go past this screen and messages shown are in continuous loop. It has been like this for some considerable time.
Same problem. Blue screen and settlers as above....and then no further. And WHY is there STILL nothing on the homepage!
Exactly the same problem here, I've been waiting 45 mins so far
I got in. Tried to go to my adventure. All gone to sleep again. Can't get back in. :(
It takes some time, but the game should proceed to load up if you wait a while once you get to that point.
I have had it like that for 1,5-2h while watching a film, so... As long as I get in at 22:00 I'm happy, have a market to start at that time
Back on ok but its taking minutes to switch islands / load troops/ load armies/ move armies etc etc
Looks like it will be this way untill BB get back to work in the morning.
Mindslayer
27.01.19, 17:07
For me I was able to authenticate but after that it gets stuck on the information screen before your island appears.
Am back in after waiting for it for 37 mins.
Latest info on german forum ( 5 pm GMT ) : still no estimate on when done
Been out 6 hrs now, its costing me xp now (or loads of expensive buffs to fix it).
Got a Deja Vu feeling
Not the first time afterall, its not often this kinds of serverproblems, but still not the first time either...
My game froze about 45 mins ago now- gave it a few mins to see if it would fix itself but had no choice but to refresh. Trying to log back in but no luck - I get as far as the blue screen but my tick won't turn green- stays greyed out. The most annoying thing is I'd just accepted invite to a ww adv, didn't even have a chance to send gens. Luckily my sister had managed to log on so she sent a message to the player who started adv to kick me but game won't let him kick me so now am just delaying everyone :(
i cant also get in did load but wont make the last step , just standing there and give tips hmm
That's the stage I kept getting to- tried refreshing each time after about 10 mins. The final time I just left it and however long it took- am finally in but be prepared for a long wait or give up for tonight if nothing urgent to do.
Damn...everything is SO slow, took 37 mins to log in, was here 32 mins, tried to visit someones land and nothing happening, got stuck. Now cant get in again.
Still waiting :)

The game is currently down due to an unscheduled maintenance in an effort to fix the problems that have been affecting users for the past 8 hours or so. At present, there is no ETA for when the game will be back up, but we shall endeavour to keep you informed as soon as we have more information.

Ah well what can we get for free, well done and thank you BB for my hours and hours of fun. Seriously its done mostly for love
Hope game will be up and running soon.
folks they obviously have issues with the servers, they have been flaky all day. i'd guess they are trying server reboots/reloads. be back up when it is
This sounds a bit like "we have no idea what's going on".

Any idea how long it will take to fix BB/Mod?
had a prob like this last year. it took several days before they got the game up and running again.
That time it wasnt BB it was their internet provider going down due to snow. That took out all BB and ubisoft games and websites including uplay so couldnt even play settlers 7 to pass the time.
Several other German based websites were down as well then.
As its not just this game playing up but most of BB's games it might be simular prob to last time.
The MODS can only pass on the info they get from BB so dont blame them for lack of info. Bet some of them r just as annoyed as the rest of us lol.
thorn-princess
27.01.19, 21:08
hope they are going to honour all quests etc and give us some freebees to help get us back to where we were 8hrs ago!
Hope it comes back soon. I'm 80% of the way through "Gunpowder" with 2 days left on the clock. Last time something like this happened, they didn't extend the clock and the Adventure failed.
any idea whats happening?
Game crashed was expecting that to happen yesterday . Nothing to do but wait.
Same. Home page says "Game Server Issue"
any idea whats happening?
Dear settlers,
We are currently experiencing some game disruptions, which can lead to availability issues of the game, forum and website. The technical department has already been informed and is working on a solution , thats from BB_Saqui

well...here is midnight and nothing...the game was down all day here :(
For those who got in this morning and didnt refresh it worked most of the day.
For players like me who refreshed at the start of the problem we couldnt play all afternoon, then late afternoon the game was up again, all tough slow and with a long wait time to get in, but that lasted just a couple of hours, then everyone got kicked out, that is where we are now, waiting till we can get back in …… or go to bed.... whatever comes first....
Just tried from UK and no joy. Hope this doesn't break my uninterrupted run of logins. Par for the course now in UK, you fiddle with something and it Brexit.
Game seems to be loading again!!!
Login worked for me now, so try again. :-)

its working atm :)
I tried all evening to log in but no luck. Now Ican log in but what do I see? A 'nice' red cross on day seven.... :( so no 100 gems for me this week?! I hope BB will compensate. I see to it that I log in every day. I fear this means that I have to start over with the weekly log ins... That will be 12 days op playing then before I'll get the 100 gems.. Come on BB compensate us pls. (will weekly's be extended? what about prem? etc. ...)
Seems BB listened this time (at least to some of us). I still got the 7-days/100 gems and my ongoing Adventure ("Gunpowder") has gone back up by the missing day.
As previously verified early this morning, the game and servers are now back online. If anyone experiences any further issued today, please use this thread to report them over the next 24 hours.
Again, we'd like to thank you for your patience while the issue was resolved yesterday.
We love patience :)
What was the root issue ?
How are we going to get the stuff we lost back ?

The same happened to me. I lost the 100 gems and I think it would only be fair if I'd be compensated for it as I do log in every single day.
