Server Problems, Post Here!

  1. Hey guys, I am not sure if other people are experiencing the same problems I am here on smp6, but I can't seem to stay connected much less even play. Client keeps giving me the messages "Timed Out" and " Internal Exception: java.io.IOException: Existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host ". Is the problem something I need to fix on my end ? :confused:

    I was able to play almost fine yesterday, had a couple hiccups with lag but it seemed much better after a while. Only other thing I was wondering is, I recently downloaded optifine. That doesn't affect server connections does it ? It's meant for smoothing gameplay!? Just checking.

    Thanks! ;)
  2. Seems like an internet problem on your end. Try resetting your modem if possible (by pressing the reset button or by unplugging the power cord). Also check with your ISP if there are any known issues in your neighborhood with internet.
  3. Never gotten this one before

    If you're on, stay on.

  6. I got that message too :( guess no emc for me tonight unless it's fixed soon
  7. It's not just emc, it's any and all servers. I checked a few others
  8. I logged on to Utopia yesterday, and it looked like every chest on all my reses was gone. I didn"t panic cause Eclipsys is working on a large build on the 6 reses. He also is working a system for all my items to be more organized. So, I thought, maybe he took them to sort them in his sorter or something.
    Now you could see every other block, even the wall behind where the chests were, but no chests. I tried clicking on the back wall, it showed in the chest and my items inside. I logged off and on, and everything was back to normal.
    So, no complaints, this is FYI to let you know this happened, in case its important!
  9. I logged on this morning, only to find all of my paintings and armor stands had popped! Nobody has build on my res, so I'm really confused. Good thing move was off then, or someone could have snatched mah stuff
  10. Something happened to fendy a while back when all entities were killed or something in a certain chunk, PM aikar as this doesn't relate to the server performance

  11. Aikar has been notified and we are checking to see any causes for this.

  12. You could try reloading textures (f3+t) but a restart should fix this for sure.

  13. Thanks for your response! I did find that out.
  14. Yeah that issue could not of related to the recent deploy as we didn't even touch the server software.

    Sounds like you had a bad chunk sent to you, which occasionally just happens.

    This also is unlikely to be related to the deploy, as said no server changes, and nothing we changed on plugin should of related either.

    Plus, if it was plugin related It furthur wouldn't make sense if move was off anyways.

    Are you saying the armor stands in item stack form were literally on the ground? we've never had issues with AS in that way, as its not even a "Hanging Entity" to just fall off, and the only way an AS can "break" is through human interaction.

    could someone else in your home may of logged into the account and did it to "troll"?

  16. TJ, I see your IP (lets call this #1) for that timeframe logging out at 03-Feb-2016 17:00:51
    Then a new IP (#2) logged in at 04-Feb-2016 00:54:07
    #2 logged in SMP8, SMP1, Utopia, and logged out at 04-Feb-2016 01:00:27

    Then 2 hours later you return on IP #1 at 04-Feb-2016 03:19:41

    If this was not you, then that might be the cause and I suggest changing PW's immediately.

  17. We should probably put this in a PM
    If the IP #2 broke the paintings and such, then why wouldn't it have despawned 2 and a bit hours later? He said they were on the ground

  18. I have four computers, and I logged into another one, so that was still me. And plus, I have a little sister, who doesn't know any of my passwords, and my parents have been in India for the past 3 weeks.
  19. Switching PC's in your home will not switch your IP (At least for v4, IP v6 it will but we are not using it for game servers yet)

    So unless your other PC is on a different internet provider, or you tethered over a phone or something, it would be same IP.
