  • I have the same issue.
    After rebooting took 'forever' (approx 1 hour), i first couldn't connect to the server. In game it would tell me the server could not be reached.
    Reinstall, did not change any settings to see if i destroyed something in the settings, and again waiting for ages -> I'm stuck in the loading screen "creating player".


    I read restarting the server could solve the issue, so i give it a shot. And... nothing. Except waiting endlessly for the server to restart. Dashboard tells me server is busy restarting. After a while i get the options to "Force Start" or "Force Stop".
    Welp, i wait a while, try to Force Start,.. wait... nothing.
    I decided to Force Stop, which actually worked, after a while, and am now trying to reinstall and see if anything changed.

    I also created a ticket, and i would suggest you do the same.

    I am no expert, but after some superficial google usage i think it might be possible that the server is out of space..
    The dashboard logs had some file with content:
    "Win32 IO returned 112",....

    Anybody any idea?

  • Update (sorry, don't want to spam, can't edit last post):
    After reinstall at 10:25 i get:


    2021-09-21 08:47:53 Server restart requested (Webinterface)

    Tue, 21 Sep 2021 10:48:01 +0200 Server restart requested (WINDOWS)

    Tue, 21 Sep 2021 10:59:55 +0200 ni5433765_1 restarted more than 10 times in a row. There seems to be something very wrong. Stopping server. (WINDOWS)

    But i cannot find out what is very wrong.

  • Update:
    So after creating a ticket i reinstalled a few times and it finally worked.

    However after a few hours my ticket was resolved with the information: "We transferred your game to another server"

    And it still works.

    zhepherd:

    1. Login to nitrado -> don't go to web interface
    2. on the left side there is a vertical menu (free translation by myself, since it's german for me) "My Services, Parent control, my account,... "
    --> There should be a menu item called something like "my support requests", right below "my account"

    There you should see your submitted ticket and it's status.

    Good Luck!
