Author Topic: Authenticaton Failed???  (Read 4177 times)

 Hi there I am new to the forums and I have a question about the blockland internet part.
When I try to connect to a game on the internet I get a "Authentication Failed".
I have contacted support and they told me to:
"make sure that windows firewall and any other security software you have installed is set to allow Blockland to connect to the internet and access the hard disk.  Other than that, you can make sure you're entering the key correctly by copy and pasting directly from the email"
I have did this and blockland still wont let me get on the internet part.
----
I am running Windows Vista.
I have disabled all my security settings.
I have blockland version8.
I have bought "2" blockland activation keys and they both dont work for the internet part.
and my internet is running just fine (or else i wouldn't be typing this message)
----
Here is a screen shot:

That error means the server is 'dead' or that your internet/isb doesnt like blockland. For example, if I try to join some servers it will give me the same message, all I do to fix it, is restart blockland.

Well i have tried to go to"9999999999" different servers and they all say "server has droped the connection: authentication failed" or  something like "join server timeout"
And i have also tried to restart blockland and that dont work either and i have also tried to reinstall blockland and that dont work.
Also i have not gave anyone my key(right after i got my key and put it in and tried to connect and it gave me the same messages) =( this kinda makes me mad cuz i have paid 40$ and i cant get on the internet so please someone help me figure out whats wrong =)

1- Dont do the name at the end of your posts.
2- Post your Console.log which is found in the blockland folder. (Join a server get the error, then quit blockland.exe , then look for the recent console.log and post it here)
3- If #2 doesnt find the solution, contact badspot.

Foster,

Make sure when you are running the program as administrator.  Right click on your link or on Blockland.exe or the .bat file and click "run as administrator."

If that isn't the problem, check your parental controls and check your firewall.

That error means the server is 'dead'

Wrong. This has to be some issue with his key because his game is clearly communicating with the auth server and the target server he wants to connect to, because the default message when no response is received is "Offline Mode" or "Timeout". The server is specifically telling this person their auth is invalid.

This is for Vista. Running it as administrator can sometimes help a lot.

Do you have DSL? Mine does that for some forgeted up reason whenever somebody gets on the phone.....my whole internet messes up.....DSL shouldn't do that >:(

Thank everyone for there help! It works now.I right clicked and then clicked"run as administrator" and it worked! thanks very much.
