Updated patch files (50d) - cannot get past server select screen to play

[daveske]

I try to select blue server, but it goes back to user/password login screen. I try to login again and it gives me a specific message:

Error 1017: Cannot login to 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 hit OK then it goes back to the login screen again.
