Lamannia client won't connect

[Stanley_Nicholas]

I have successfully downloaded and installed my Lamannia client, into a different directory than my live client. Once the launcher loads though, it fails to connect. It just sits there at this point:



Until it eventually fails, like so:



My launcher for the live servers works perfectly fine, no problems connecting at all. My firewall is set to give the Lamannia launcher and client full access to both incoming and outgoing data. Just to test it, I completely disabled my firewall and tried restarting the Lamannia launcher and there was no change. This is not a firewall issue. What's the problem here?

i am having this exact same issue, uninstalled, re-downloaded, and still stuck.

[Ulfgaar]

Same issues as well...searching forums for a solution but no luck yet

[BoBach]

i have the same issue. Maybe Lama is down?

if you log out and close the client you can not get back in there are still a few of us in also if you leave the test dojo you can not go back because the door is gone

Squeek posted this in another thread:

The Kobold room also provides a handy area to test out abilities! However, if Lamannia comes crashing down because of this, we will have to close the Test Dojo and return to the old ways.

So maybe having everything in one place has caused an issue...

I was able to log in yesterday and today. (I have also replaced the Test Dojo door.) Are you still running into this issue?

[PpalP]

Yes, can't connect, stop at "waiting".

I think that people that have the instalation of Lama before the update can connect, but the ones that have download the latest version after update can't connect (maybe have to do with the infamous Pando media)

[thegreatneil]

Yes, still having this same issue.
I even went as far as to uninstall the test server, the normal game, AND Pando, all for fresh new installs.
Also having no issue logging onto regular worlds.

Yep, having the same issue ... Connect is stuck at waiting. Downloaded the client yesterday afternoon.

Been having this issues since the new Lamannia build was opened. Took a battle with Pando Media Booster to even get this far. Something on Turbine's end is not working right.

[Cheezburgerz]

Same exact thing.

[00Danny]

Same thing here.

[Arnhelm]

Still sitting at Connect for long periods, then getting the request timed out message, minute delay, then another long period of sitting at Connect.

Just tried it too, mine launched without hesitation.

Using nothing high end. My connection even is iffy. Not sure what is up here.

Unfortunately I am having the same issues here. The main DDO live client is working perfectly for me, yet when I attempt to go to Lammania I am stuck on the "connect: Waiting" problem. I installed/resinstalled 4 times (2 times on two separate computers) . Once with the downloader I got back in 2010 and another that I downloaded this morning, both still having the same problem.

I have double checked my firewall settings and can't find any issue there. I made sure that each installation is miles away from the other on my hard drive. I tried doing the high graphics install and without the high graphics. I have also cleared out the cache and temp.files on IE (I read that might be an issue) and still no go.

Any assistance on resolving this would be greatly appreciated.

Same thing here. Downloaded the Lamannia client on a new PC for the enhancement pass alpha preview.

Yes we are still running into the issue. No we are not getting any kind of advice from Turbine. Not a shock that the Lamannia coordinator was able to log in.

[Jujube85]

Won't connect for me either.

Downloaded and installed a few days ago, so not an old/updated version of lama if that helps any at all.
