    Ascent login issue(Not the Typical)

    Ok. Get this. My server works great the first time I run it and I have no issues logging in. Then after I close it I can not log back in when its restarted. Im shutting it down correctly. What gives? I need to reinstall everything again to get it to work after the initial login in. I have not always had this issue. The only thing I have done is gone up to two gigs of memory. I dont think its related but just figured I would mention it.

    It stops at connected...

    Thanks for any help.

    What database and repack is this, and what are your IP's facing to? Is your firewall off, ports forwarded?

    Happens with all builds of ascent and databases. My firewall is down and ports are open. I have no issues with servers on other machines for instance the ragezone server. Only problem is with a server run on my machine. Im thinking it has something to do with a piece of software im running but I not sure where to start looking since lately I have not added anything new. I may just need to move the server over to my laptop or something it seems.

    So during this time, your Ascent.exe and Loginserver.exe remain open and fully loaded saying the server is online without fail, and you cannot connect..

    Try this..

    Code:
    Go to Start -> My Computer -> C: -> WINDOWS -> System32 -> drivers -> hosts
    Open that up in notepad..

    It should say:
    Code:
    127.0.0.1     localhost
    Underneath of this, add:
    Code:
    Your external IP      your DNS name (dont add "your DNS name", just add something like vwow.no-ip.biz or something of the sort)
    External IP can be found by going here

    Ok I figured something out. Has to do with my wow client. If i delete my WTF folder and Cache folder everytime I log back in then it seems no problems...Any idea why it would do this?

    It's storing information that wasn't used probably, giving you an error. Just keep doing that and you should be okay. :)
