World server not responding to logins

[Anathuril]

Last time this happened, population on blue went almost to zero while logins would not be accepted on the blue server. The problem also seems to screw up the client so that it has to be restarted before attempting another login, but this client side behavior might be unrelated.

This is apparently not a problem with the login server, since I can get the character screen without problem on the EZ Server. Furthermore, I just realized that I was disconnected during a zone change on both occasions now - I suspect the problem must be in code that is used for zone changes as well as login attempts (i.e. zone connection).

So, the blue server in this case (again) needs to be restarted, or the pop will again continue to decline.

The server shows as up, but when login is attempted, the character select screen never comes up. After a while, the login screen reappears.
