It should have no affect on the actual settings so i don't see why anything should have changed unless changed by a user.

I've been given a temporary fix which should allow you to access the servers on the control panel and FTP, although you will see the message "Could not connect to the master monitor." on the control panel for the time being

Hi Deko,

You are not the first to report this and it does appear to be solely the software for the .51 server that is at fault. All servers are unaffected in terms of being online, but administrating the .51 servers will not be possible until this is fixed, The main problem is basically the tcadmin software for the .51 machine keeps closing, I've got a support ticket in with TCAdmin and hopefully they'll have a solution for me, It may simply be a setting on the server that i have missed or perhaps an update to something on windows, I'll let you know when i have more info.

Quote from NovaK :

Will there be any special offer around christmas/new year this year equal to this?

There will definitely be a special around Christmas that will have a high percentage discount as with previous years, Most likely a 50% off (although the exact percentage is not decided yet). It might not include a free service as that will depend on server utilization's at the time.

Sorry about that Originally the offer was going to end yesterday, But i changed it at the last minute and forgot to update the code.

It should work for you now.

Hi Everyone,

From Monday 8th October until Sunday 14th October we will have 20% off of all services and a free second service for ANY payment term. (the coupon for this offer will be released on Monday 8th October). - This promotion is currently ACTIVE

This promotion is now active, 20% off and a free second service on ANY payment term!. (Webspace will get double resources, Game servers will receive a 2nd server with equal specifications)

a DDOS is affecting the DC right now, they are already taking steps to sort it out now.

Wrong IP, thats the old one,

Try: http://109.70.149.232:2082 or http://cpanel.500servers.net

LFS 0.6B7 now available

If Lag bars etc are being looked at, Would it be a good idea to have the latency that is normally shown above a car in Shift+F8 put into the players list under the Ctrl+Shift option? (ideally so you can see your own latency as well) thereby not having to spectate from tv cam or another car nearby

B4 is just a server side patch for some of the packet checking scawen has been working on, Not the incompatible test patch that this thread is about.

It's back up now, There were some file system errors which have been fixed now

Looking into this now.

Maybe FTP works? But my password is forgotten so meh

I have now PM'd you a new password.

Quote from P V L :

An error has occurred. Contact an administrator. If you are an administrator please contact TCADMIN SUPPORT.

This is now fixed.

Quote from KayJay :

Hi Dean,

I'm still getting the same error with cpanel. Any update?

This should also be fixed now.

Thanks for your patience everybody.

It is possible to revert via the same update system (simply select 0.6B from the update list instead of 0.6B4)

I will put out another e-mail when updating about reverting as i did not consider that sort of issue (although most leagues generally want the latest cheat protection settings. I was just cruising (as i sometimes do) and a general user was kicked for CPW just after updating the version so clearly something has changed).

New Dedicated server version is now available on the control panal for MANUAL updating.

The 0.6B4 update will be automatically applied to all servers at 4am BST on 29/06/2012

The cpanel will be back on Friday (31st) as the licensing needs to be set to renew correctly with the new ip's

@G7USL I am working on the RFactor 2 configs and hope to have that available for you to try soon.

sorry about that, the control panel should be working again now.

all servers should have been up shortly after having been down, There was a problem on the power switch, If your server appears offline please login to the control panel and restart it.

@g7usl, I have not yet got back to you as i have not had any good news to give you. Fortunately with the latest RF2 update things seem to be working with the control panel now, So i will try to get this going for you again.

Did i read that the one recent year i have missed this, after constantly wanting to race in wet conditions... the one recent time i have missed the event, there were wet conditions!.

GRRRRrrrrrRRrRrrr! maybe next year we can do it in February, Then i will get the last laugh!.

Sounds like you all had fun as per usual, So well done Jason + Co.

Gutted you can't make it Dean, is it too late to change your mind?

Unfortunately it was never a case of my mind that needed changing, Wanted to come but the timing was off, had a wedding to attend last weekend and have another one to attend next weekend. So could not do this weekend aswell.

The room looks fantastic. When can i move in?

Good luck guys, I'm sure you'll have alot of fun as normal.

Bob, Looks like you'll have to take double surprise buttsex from T.V.E as i'll not be there!.

Looks like you need to upload your Airio.lic file to the File Manger for Airio Full.

It's always the little things you miss!, Finally found it, There was a redirect setup to point to the old server for some reason, Removed it and http://lfsdb.500servers.net works now

thats very odd. As far as i can tell all the A records and DNS settings seem to be correct for lfsdb

i'll have to look further into it.
