Access to Dedicated Server and Account

[eberdeed]

When I start my dedicated server and then try and login using my maniaplanet client it gives me the following message: "Could not connect:
You are already connected (from a different computer)."
Then when I try to access the server using the offline LAN option it gives me this error:
"Corrupted Login"
The server itself doesn't have any problems. It is the ManiaPlanet client that won't behave in this scenario.

Please Help,

is the login of your dedicated server the same as your game account? if so try to shut it down and make a new login on player.maniaplanet.com -> dedicated servers.

didn't want to write a new report as I have the same problem. All of a sudden. It was all working yesterday. Today I got this message as well. My MP and server login are not the same. Any suggestions?

Was your previous game (ealier today or yesterday night) interrupted suddenly for no apparent reason?
Or was it working properly until you closed ManiaPlanet normally?

Usually this connection issue typically gets automatically resolved after one night (European time) at the master server.
Please try again later or tomorrow if you can wait

Hey (again) TMarc

Hm. Nope. Nothing happened that I could think it would cause this. Didn't had any crashes. Was closing MP as usual. I'm currently at work so I'll test when I get home....

Hi TMarc, 24h passed and I still get the same message any ideas what can I do?

Hi dante979, that's very unfortunate. And the game does not give the IP of the machine you are presumed to already play on
I would try again tomorrow, and then we can try to contact someone at Nadeo (if they don't read this earlier).

But I imagine you want to play now and not later
One thing to try: if you have dynamic IP allocation: shutdown the server. Shutdown your PC. Shutdown the router and wait let's say 5 minutes (IP timeout etc.).
Restart everything.
It could force disconnection of all, and that you get a new IP, in case the server or the router is keeping a old connection active.
But that's only an idea which has to be confirmed, either by the devs or by you

hey TMarc,

first of all ty for quick reply. I tried your suggestion but it didn't work. same message again
Don't worry. I can wait until tomorrow no problem. Sure I would like to play on my server but as a software developer myself I understand those situations (maybe even more than others)...

[TMarc]

thanks for your understanding then

hey TMarc,

I still can't login
