1017 Crash on server login

Bugaman · #1 08-11-2010, 08:37 AM

Hey there guys-

I havent played on P99 for a few months now, due to not having internet at my new remote location. I just got Net yesterday and now I cant login, everytime I try the client gets to server selection and I choose P99, then it takes about 20 secs and sends me back to the Station login/pass screen. then when I try to login again it says:

Error 1017: "Connot login to the everquest server. You may need to re-run the update patch. Repeatedly seeing this message indicates a loss of connectivity to the patch server. This is usually temporary."

I am using the same setup I had back in May to play P99, could it possibly be my new internet, I just got Hughesnet Satellite as my ISP (The only one with decent speed in my area), speed is 1.6mbps. If anyone has any advice on the matter please respond. I wanna get back in the action. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'm running some pretty slow Internet here at a hotel and I seem to login fine

Were you attempting to log in while the server was down earlier today?

Im running Vista and had no problems before, so I dont know whats wrong. I knew the server was down earlier thanks for the heads up tho. Still trying to figure this out, anyone know some resolution settings I might try??

im having the same issue. its acting like its loading from server select to char select, then puts me back to the login screen for login server.

I also am having this problem on a laptop (Vista SP2). I tried a clean install, running a few resolutions and with & without WinEQ2 to no avail.

Ive tried all those things and no luck yet =/

After uninstall did you manually delete the whole Sony folder?
That fixed my problems.

You did want it to feel classic didn't you?
