First TripleA Game Test
-
Yeah, IIRC in 99% of cases updating java helped.
When this didn't work, either anti virus software or some proxy prevented establishing the connection.
The proxy could have various reasons, we had monitoring software in the past and I could imagine the same being true for corporate networks... -
Usually this problem comes up when using the 1.8.0_66 JRE bundled with the current stable TripleA installer. So installing the latest version of Java on the OS doesn't actually do anything because TripleA will always use the bundled JRE. This topic is a walkthrough for troubleshooting the issue and uninstalling the bundled JRE if that is indeed the problem.

@ssoloff , @RoiEX and @LaFayette , thank you so much for the help! Removing the old java and reinstalling TripleA worked like a charm.
Now have access to Dice Server, and as you can see, I could make a connection to Forum.
Unfortunately that only worked once, and after that I get an error 50, stating that my userid does not exist.
Weird since it is unchanged since the first successful test, and I logged out manually from the forum and logged in by copying the credentials I have in TriplA, so it is not a type... Weird. Sorry to get asking for help here. but any idea of what is going on is much appreciated...

@Viking no need to apologize, the software could certainly be better and it should not be giving you this much trouble.
Looking at the error, I'd double check the UI fields. "VikinginNC@gmail.com" is an email and is different from user name. Perhaps there is your email address entered instead of user name.
-
@Viking I believe your "username" should be "Viking" not "VikinginNC@gmail.com".

@redrum and @LaFayette , thanks, you were right, and when I changed to my admin it works. ONCE. Then I get

Once. So, at least we have a predictable behavior.
Searching for Errorcde 500, I saw this thread: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/674/summary-text-forum-responded-with-error-code-500/2
Bur reading through the thread and what seems to be root cause, it seems to be my original certificate issue caused by an old jvm, and that fix described is what I think I did above, so not sure I am facing the same problem...
Any other ideas for what to try? -
Ok I don't think we had that issue before, but the error message is pretty unclear.
In order to fix that I created a Pull Request https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/pull/4964
Once that gets merged you'll have to download a new pre-release version of the game and try the same steps using that, it should provide a better error message. -
@Viking Please install https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/1.10.15187 and try posting using this version.
Feel free to install it in another folder, because it's incompatible with 1.9.X versions. The PbF/PbEM Settings moved to the Settings for the most part, so it might look a little bit different, but for the most part it should be the same.
If the error still happens there (which should be the case), it should at least provide a better error message that will hopefully lead us in the right direction
