I get the same error. I played Tuesday night without any problems. Last night and all day today I've been getting the null error. I have the game on my pc and laptop, neither work (laptop gets a different error, ***???) I even tried a full re-install, but that didn't work. Any help???

I don't know how to actually post the pictures of the errors here so here are some links.

Hi all just in case I missed anyone in the thread I replied to earlier I'm being typing lazy and quoting myself here:

We have had several players reporting this error that did have a pre-existing hosts file work around in their files.

Open up the folder C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc and in there look for a file named "Hosts". Right-click on it and choose "Open With" and choose "Notepad" from the list presented.

Once it opens in notepad look in your file for:

206.16.13.87 gls.ddo.com

Or:

206.16.13.82 gls.ddo.com

And add a # in front of both (examples below)

# 206.16.13.87 gls.ddo.com
# 206.16.13.82 gls.ddo.com


Exit and save changes when prompted, reboot and retry launching DDO.

Hey Mirthgar, thanks! You are a life saver. That script change did for me.
