SSCU Death Star Battle

[L.C.]

Who's hosting the zone? :?

 

EDIT: Actually, nevermind! I think all of SSC is experiencing issues.

I doubt it, only showing problems with SSCU Death Star Battle on my population statistics.

The reason is because whoever is hosting it is not using the billing proxy. SSCV is using a billing proxy, so our zones do not automatically restart upon losing connection. Instead, there is an arena message saying the zone lost connectivity to the central database and is switching to standalone mode. And, when it does regain connection, it says that it has and that you should relogin to regain full functionality of billing features. I've had Subchat open to SSCV Realism Zone for the past 48+ hours and looking up the log there are large time ranges of when SSC goes up and down.

Their problems with their proxy are described in the link mav already posted.

Ah. Stupid ol' me.

 

@Dr Brain: Does ASSS have any compatibility with the biller proxy? :?

[Dr Brain]

What do you mean?

 

ASSS has many billing proxy features built-in already.

I never knew subgame would recycle itself if it lost connection to the billing server. ASSS though falls back on its internal authentication system/player database and displays a message stating that the connection to the biller was lost. It will then periodically check to see if the biller is back up and reconnect. The end behaviour is similar to that of subgame's 'proxy'.

So then having ASSS connect to the biller proxy wouldn't be a problem at all? (Even though it has it's own built-in)

 

From my experience, Subgame2 seems to only restart (when a billing proxy is not being used) if it is connected to SSC. If it is connected to a non-SSC biller, the terminal will print something like 'connection to billing server lost' without restarting the zone. Probably a security mechanism of Subgame2..

ASSS will constantly keep crashing/restarting when connected to the biller proxy. Or from a recent experience with it atleast.

I will have to test this after SSC goes stable again. When you tried SSCV's proxy with Cheese, did you use 1337 for the port? And did the logs have anything relevant to billing connections when it crashed? :?

[Cheese]

i already said yes/no to those already

 

is ssc stable again yet?

?find and chats are working, so i would assume yes.

 

however, it seems all zones on the sscv host can not connect, what happened?
