Posted June 19, 2011 As for me, it seems like someone hugely overloaded the server in a very short period of time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 19, 2011 Yet the server status on the main site claims that freedom is up. What is going on? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2011 well the blue line is outgoing traffic the green stuff is ingoing... the weekly shows good how it should be naturally, a little wavy, because people log on on different timezones (you know when the kchat is really empty^^) the daily graph shows how it was today....and tis a bit odd...because shortly before ANY traffic is gone, doesnt matter if Out or In there is a massive Outgoing spike whatever that means... and then nothing....like the server is dead btw please dont make a server reroll with 3 hours...>.< I've done alot in this time.... then....*criiiies* i wanna play*snif Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 19, 2011 Wolrider. go into Java control panel in windows control panel, find temporary internet files, remove Wurm online, then come back to the website or forums and reinstall the client. that will fix that error for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 19, 2011 Another graph http://wild001.game.wurmonline.com/mrtg/eth0 shows that wild server handled the spike well and didn't crash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2011 Another graph http://wild001.game.wurmonline.com/mrtg/eth0 shows that wild server handled the spike well and didn't crash. They didn't go as high, either. Hmm, any way it could be related to the players logged in, rather than some outside source? IE, somehow we all .. triggered it, something in the code itself that overloaded at once? Wild had less than one third the players so less than one third the spike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2011 These days it might also be DDoS attack(see LulzSec), but I am not sure if it could be DDos attack, that would mean massive spike in inbound traffic, wouldn't it? Not necessarily. There are several types of DoS attacks. A SYN-flood attack may well lead to an excess of outbound traffic whene the server chokes itself. My money is down on a simple server-side bug however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2011 Seems like the prem-only server is better protected. Well, I guess that's how the free market works. Anyway - the site claims that freedom is up again. Any word from Rolf? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2011 Both the login and Freedom server seems to be very much 'alive' at the moment. Haven't attempted logging in though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 19, 2011 Both the login and Freedom server seems to be very much 'alive' at the moment. Haven't attempted logging in though. Can't log in at all, and you'll get different reasons why you can't log in: connection refused the server is lagging. reconnecting in 20 seconds an existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host failed to connect to the new game server Like said before.

Posted June 19, 2011 And we won't untill Rolf does something. Apparently it's good that the server is down, because it means that it has basic security. If it didn't crash during that spike it would actually exceed (dunno if spelling right, tired as hell) the bandwith limit or get damaged. It turned off itself in order to secure itself.

Posted June 19, 2011 an existing connection forced the remote host computer to shut down (something like that) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2011 It does not matter what it says. It's down and we have to wait for Rolf. Nothing can be done before he fixes the stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 19, 2011 I would not consider that spike just before it crashed an attack of any kind. More likely it was 413 players all reconnecting at once, which may have caused it to lock up. It would also explain the lesser spike on Wild, and why they did not lock up (fewer Players). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You've got a point, but the server went down for the first time before we reconnected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
