This seems to be related to a node death earlier tonight. It is affecting a relatively low number of people which I know is no comfort to those affected. We will see if we find a solution that doesn't require us to reboot TQ, but if not, this will be fixed at downtime. Again we're really sorry about the inconvenience.


reroute and reboot... you worry to much about problems after the fact.. i never heard a person say a reboot can hurt more.... :) dude just reboot the dam thing already make your life easier...

Cleared Cache & relogged, two accounts, two different install directories. Same results, still getting the message three to five times when logging in.

Tried on a second computer I have with same results. Win 7 machine and Win Vista machine

The specified proxy or server node (886617) is dead

A workaround that worked for me:

I joined the somerBlink channel from the ingame browser. This worked to get me at least 1 channel. I was still not able to join any other channels manually. I then quit the client and rebooted the client, upon relogging I am now in corp/alliance and able to join channels again.

Open your chat channel window (you WILL get an error message again, ignore it) connect to some public channel and close your client.. reopen, and your Corp, Alliance, Local and that channel will be there.. proceed by adding the rest of your missing channels again without error



this fix worked for me.


Edit - Eve voice seems to still be impacted. i cant hear or talk to fleet..

Leaped into Eve to find the same thing happening.
Re-logged and still nothing, then spent the last 30 minutes reading complaints (all very similiar somehow), re-logged just now, and turns out it works again.

Excellent stuff, I was getting worried I'd have nothing to not talk to since everyone is offline anyway...

Same for me on my PC.

I fixed it on my Macbook by clearing cache & reboot.

Was getting the error popup regardless of restarting and clearing cache last night. (2300 Eve time)

This morning it was working again, though I had the joy of finding all my player-run channels again and putting them where they belong. (0800 Eve time)

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

No worries Worldwind. Failures happen.

I logged in 20mins before DT anyway so it's not an issue for me. I'll report back if it is still occurring after DT.

Thanks for the heads up.
