Pretty specific error, shouldn't take to long to find and at least say "Hey, it will be 20 minutes while we route this to a different proxy"

Just sayin'

Same problem here. I have a Mac and tried relogging, clearing the cache then logging in an alt then logging back in my main and still no go on alliance or corp chat. I can start a private convo, but cannot chat in that convo. I cannot accept a private convo either.

Local and fleet chats work as do public chat channels.

Perhaps they cannot replicate the error on their end. Tough to track down database issues without that.

Try to repair tool, worked for me.

Chinese exploited workers would have solved the problem by now, maybe these Developers are overpaid.

You better dam reboot TQ, unable to do anything as I can't safely fly in nullsec without chat channels. I have 9 friggen accounts and all of them are useless. Fixed at downtime IS NOT AN ACCEPTABLE SOLUTION.


agreed completly

CCP you call this tech support? There is another word that comes to my mind......


We are continuing to investigate the issue but rebooting TQ will also cause problems for many. If there is anything any of you feel that a GM can do to help, they are on shift right and doing their best to alleviate side effects as possible.

So you know how to fix it but you refuse to do it? That's awesome support..

Had this issue with two accounts.

Tried to restart client : no fix
Tried clearing cache and restarting client : no fix
Tried clearing cache in game then running the EVE Repair tool in launcher : fixed on both accounts

Please try this and post results to assist the devs in tracking this down.


This doesn't do anything for me.

Who ever is having this problem, don't count that CCP will fix it before downtime , if they wanted to fix it they would have restarted TQ already. If it was a small bug that would benefit all of us the server would already been restarted but because only a couple (100, 1000, 5000 who knows)are affected it doesn't matter for them.

I always recommend people to play eve and dust but i see no reason to do that anymore with so crappy support. I would be ashamed as a tech support if i could fix a problem but didn't do it.

Since i'm not expecting it will be fixed before DT i'm going to log off.

I just worked through this with a corp mate who I could chat with in local.

She did the cache clear and repair tool thing once and it didn't work but then went away and the second time she did it she was back into all the proper channels.

This has also worked for some pilots I have been suggesting it to in the local and militia channels when I have noticed folks asking about this problem.

Had the same problem as everyone else here.

Rebooted the client 5 times and that solved the problem for me. I did have to add various other channels besides corp and alliance.

Guys I know this is annoying but then pc gaming has always been a pain in the butt. Cut ccp a bit of slack. If not the can I haz your stuff?

Router and modem reset cleared the problem for me.

Props to the member of Gallente Militia who put me onto that.
Hehehe never thought I'd ever have anything nice to say about Gallente Militia so there you go. :p

That doesn't work. I've done it three times on two different accounts. I still have the issue.

Is there a ETA on a fix for this problem? I re installed and that fixed it for about a hour until I logged into my other account.

Keeps crashing after getting that error, and when I start it back up, the server status is unknown, and I can't connect for 5-10 minutes. Then I can connect for a few minutes, and the same thing will happen again.
