sambi Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 (edited) Hello everyone, I'm playing on DCS a-10C since a long time. I've always hosted my server to play with my friend. But since the 28 February 2012, my server is listed after several minutes ( 20-30 minutes at least ) after I start it. And during all this time, he can't even join it by IP. The error message received by him when he try by IP is " server ping time out". I've always hosted my server and never had this problem since the 28 and I've nothing changed in hardware. I've try with an other installation of windows and to reinstall the game. Edit: chaned the dcs.txt to the correct one ! sorry I really need help, it makes me crazy to wait 30 minutes to play I attach the DCS.txt (which is DCS.log) of my last running server, my friend never saw this one in the serverlist or even join it by ip. Thanks a lot !!dcs (2).txt Edited March 2, 2012 by sambi

sambi Posted March 1, 2012 Author Posted March 1, 2012 He is back? Last day PVAF crashed several times. Do you have crash log? It's red alert for server admins - looks like DoS Last crash log attached. PVAF ? But sorry but I don't have crash log, the game doesn't crash, the server just take several minutes to completely start. It's red alert for server admins - looks like DoS ????
Sanch0 Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 We have experienced attacks against our dedicated server. I'm not sure if it's global DCS problem. PVAF "A fighter without a gun... is like an airplane without a wing" dedicated to F-4 Phantom
sambi Posted March 1, 2012 Author Posted March 1, 2012 We have experienced attacks against our dedicated server. I'm not sure if it's global DCS problem. I hope it's global and that it will be resolved. I've tried everything, change lan IP, and making DMZ, using an other router, stopping the lan bridge on the modem to the router, ... I'm worrying in the hope to host again my server :s
sambi Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 Is there someone else experiencing the same problem ?
sambi Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 It's been solved - see patch thread: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=85887 Thanks you for your reply but my problem is on DCS A10C. Since the 28th February 2012.
159th_Viper Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Yeah - I misread your post. Apologies :) You running behind a router? Seem to recall a couple of issues relating to routers.

sambi Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 Yeah - I misread your post. Apologies :) No problems :) I keep searching on this problem for the moment. I can access to the server via telnet but friend can't via direct ip: server ping time out It's making me crazy, if someone could help me more please lol :crash: Edit: Yes, I am but the router is doing the modem's job, I've done a bridge from the modem WAN to LAN port 1. This way the router receive the WAN adress correctly and not a false LAN adress. So, when i host a game my lan ip is 192.168.2.32 and my WAN is 87.67.xxx.xxx ( dynamic ip ). I've always hosted this way and it was working for a couple of months. but the 28th, the problem appears suddenly. Seems, to me, to be a problem of script loading too late ? Is it possible ?
Heli Shed Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Problem still here :s Server name dropping from master server list? Poor mp stability? server ping timeouts? client ping timeouts?

sambi Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 Problem seems to be resolved after rebooting the modem ( which is not really in used exepted for bridging the WAN to the LAN of router ) physically, so removing the electrical outlet, it seems to work. I'll keep you informed about this. The problem was: -server listed only after 20-30 minutes of wait. -during this period, when trying to join by ip, there is this error " server ping time out ".
pirate010 Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 Problem seems to be -during this period, when trying to join by ip, there is this error " server ping time out ". same problem here, worked fine but since same time as u say we have had the problem, all join other servers but if any of us host joining the games does a timeout error message at end of mission load on client.
