Default An unknown error occurred while trying to join the server.

I played late last night. Logged out. Get up 7 hours later and can't log in. It takes my user name and password just fine and goes to the server selection screen (shows 934 people in) and pops up "An unknown error occurred while trying to join the server."

Any ideas?

I'm now getting this error. I can log into the Red server but can't log into the Blue server.

Have I been banned or something? I've never RMT'd

Been trying to log in for 30 mins [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Happens all the time to me - usually when the server pop is high. I will get a blank server select screen, or a message that i need to update my files, or the "an unknown error" message and it will take at least 3 attempts to get in, sometimes 5 or 6. I can go for hours with no problems and then get booted zoning and from then on every time I zone its the same thing. And it only seems to work at all if i completely shut down the client and the launcher between attempts. It may be coincidental but I never seemed to have this issue before the Dec 4th patch

Oh yeah - it just reminded me when I tried just now - sometimes I get a char select screen that is empty - just newbie Qeynos showing - that scared me

Default DNS cache flush

Might wanna try flushing your PCs DNS cache. Seems to help when I cannot log in or get the error message. Open CMD prompt, type ipconfig /flushdns then try logging into EQ. Hope it helps [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
