Started receiving the following error while trying to log in clients:

"The authentication token provided by the launcher is of an invalid format. Please try again or contact EVE customer support."

Already successfully logged in 2 clients, the rest are refusing to load.

Anyone else experiencing the same?

Update:
Have checked the command lines and the tokens appear to be being passed correctly.

Same here, none of my 5 account work, always the same error message "The authentication token provided by the launcher is of an invalid format. Please try again or contact EVE customer support"

But i used to play on one unique game file, so maybe it's logical that none of my char log if the first fail the auth?

I have the same problem. I had logged in just fine after dt into two of my alts but this happened when I attempted the third.
I then went to run repair.exe. Got a message there was a new version available. I told it to go ahead and install that. Now I have NO repair.exe file (I do have repair.exe_cdxorw, whatever that is). How do I go about reinstalling the repair file. I haven't a clue even where to look for it.

same here. repair tool didn't work.

EDIT: Launching from exefile worked. yay!

EDIT2: now it kicked me again and when I try to relog with the exe-file I get: Proxy not connected to sol servers Well, guess that means the server's down for good now.

Just used the repair tool. It had to update, which it did successfully. Restarted repair tool and it allowed me to log in.

Same here.

I'm also having the same issue. Logged in my first 2 accounts fine, logged in the third and got the error. Stupid me then went off and shut down the other 2 clients and ran repair, which renamed teh repair file to: repair.exe_qxjzpi

now to fix that I just deleted everything after .exe and it worked fine.

Saying that I am still unable to log in on any of my characters now and not just my third.

I succesfully log one char, but others still stuck.
I suppose it's more a server side issue? I say that because, as i sayd before, i run all my char on one game directory, so if the issue comes from my files, it should work now for all my char, that is not happening..

I repeat: Launching from exefile still works fine. Even on my account that wouldn't authenticate from launcher, logged right in.
