"Unable to retrieve new zone listing."

"Unable to retrieve new zone listing. Make sure you are using one or more valid directory server addresses. (example: sscentral.subspace.net). Also, make sure you are currently connected to the internet.

 

Well, i got these directory servers there now: ssdir.playsubspace.com, sscentral.sscuservers.net, dirserver.ssnecentral.net, ds1.hlrse.net

and still nothing =/ tried to uninstall n install a few times but nothing. A little help please. Thank you

Are you running on Vista, do have any firewall software? Try installing to C:\Continuum instead of in the program files directory.

 

Are any of the zones green? The zones the installer comes with are mostly up to date, so some should appear green, if you are not being blocked by a firewall.

Sounds like a firewall problem or something. At least 3 of those 4 directory servers are working.

ssdir.playsubspace.com was down earlier due a memory leak caused by a php upgrade, and the main dir server is down for me :/ Its back up now though.

Augh, I just found ds1.hlrse.net offline, probably because ssdir went down. There's still a bug in Snrrrub's directory server where if one or more addresses for UpstreamServers is down/offline/invalid/not a directory server, the program crashes or kills itself.

 

EDIT: Back up now.

 

EDIT2: Ugh. Temporarily disabled UpstreamServers.

It isn't, just checked. Try this:

 

1. Remove every zone from your list then click OK (go back to main Continuum menu)

2. Click on Zones and get a fresh listing from ds1.hlrse.net

 

See that very small list? That is because those are the only zones broadcasting themselves to ds1.hlrse.net. The reason the list isn't bigger is because I have UpstreamServers disabled -- which is what copies the listings other directory servers have. It is disabled because the Win32 version of Snrrrub's directory server has a critical bug involving ZoneRefreshSeconds (how often it will check other directory servers) and UpstreamServers (list of "other directory servers") that causes the program to crash.

 

I will be launching a flawless secondary hosted on Linux as soon as I get a Cron script worked out that would check to see if said program is running (and if not, execute it). Apparently, I am the only one with this Win32 bug (or that it is very difficult to actually repeat/test it). This Linux version will be hosted on L Y N X Linux server, so the fact that it is on someone else server and the Linux version (instead of Win32) should mean that it will work flawlessly. My hopes anyway.
