#Gportal server issues
441 messages ยท Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Same here
It worked slighlty earlier but I could not find the server nor join it
At this point, I might just want a refund ngl
same here
same
Gotta make a ticket for a refund apparently
yeah which will take forever, cuz they are flooded with them
just gonna have to call ur bank or something
Or paypal refund
if its on a credit card, you can be an... a** and do a chargeback but i dont want to do that
i had their services before and they were perfectly working as expected.
just unfortunate i want to have a server for my friends up and running without waiting weeks to get it
I just think the demand rn is too much
same here
ill just get a dedicated server
Same here too
yeah almost everyone got this problem right now
when i wrote a ticket about it i got asked if i changed my config file and if so what exactly i changed
ahh so im not the only one
but apparently the game changes it iself for whatever reason
thank goodness
my server was running since release without issues
palworld right?
yea i get same issue
so eveyone with that problem is locked out of their server now
as soon as the sever is crashing or trying to make a backup
since the config file probably tells the game how i should work
and since it can't access this file its doesn't know what to do
i get diff config code but yea was playing crashed and cant get back in now
happened over weekend and just restarted server and everything was good now nothing
(-32000, "a bytes-like object is required, not 'NoneType'", {'jsonrpc': '2.0', 'error': {'code': -32000, 'message': "a bytes-like object is required, not 'NoneType'"}, 'id': '4b93a1b8-8d97-40ef-a780-7d1c8a33d4b2'})
you probably get the same i get
i get this one
"Path: /cfgContext
(-32000, "a bytes-like object is required, not 'NoneType'", {'jsonrpc': '2.0', 'error': {'code': -32000, 'message': "a bytes-like object is required, not 'NoneType'"}, 'id': '808f39be-a180-4fa3-abfd-2d2ebd7951bd'})"
basically the same yeah
besides the end part that might be sever specific
yea just was bout to get lvl 28
workforce was really bout to take off
sent a support ticket like a hr ago
still waiting
i would suppose that the maker of this thread is actually running a different server
i think i saw some people with other games having a similiar issue
yeah they are backed up on tickets right now
the problem is if they would just talk with the people that are actually available right now
the fixing process would work much quicker
Yet they still continue to sell Palworld servers
my ticket got answerd like 2 hours ago i replied in 10 minutes
and now its probably radio silence until tomorrow again
Smfh
how long did it take for them to reply?
just wanna keep grinding lol
watch we gonna get back on and all our pals gonna be depressed
Or your data is wiped entirely
uhm my first one took around a day
the second one 8 hours
wow
but this email ticket system doesn't really help like i said many times before
have back ups
when the support team replies to everyone then they reply back almost immediately
but then you gotta wait for hours or a day again
this just makes it worse for everyone
there webpage is down now too, prob just some server issues. things happen itll come back eventually
the real question is, if i buy my own server (digitalocean) and host my own server, will i continue to have these problems? Or are these problems related to the palworld devs?
Yeah acording to gportal the palworld devs have alot of work to do
like someone said before the game has a memory leak
meaning the longer the server runs
the more power it needs
the game isnt built for different guilds and stuff fully
its just built for single player/ co op
all the different server and bases causing server issues, cause game not optimized for that
i highly doubt they anticipated selling as much as they did
so if you add the sever amount they are running
with the memory leak
this just adds oil to the fire
hence why all these server companies scrambled this weekend to get servers up for it
its like day 1 ark
it was trash
then got better but still trash
then release still trash but like shiny trash
sad
also to add some salt to the wound
So in theroy, i get my own server at digital ocean and host my own server with restarts every 2 hours, and there wont be issues.. ?
this issue might end up in you having to use your old backup file
if they are not able to fix them itself
and mine is one day ago
it wouldnt be any different then this
this will piss of a lot of people on my server
does it automatically backup or do i have to do it manually?
my server just friends, small 10 man server so no biggies on my end
you can set an auto backup time
can set auto back ups
mine is at midnight
is it set on by default?
and you can manually backup as well
no
i dont think i have the server backed up
a matter of a minute
got set an auto restart to have auto back ups
just hope my world doesnt get wiped
i hope it doesn't turn into a big problem then
when the game was released
a friend of mine had a server from another provider
i wasted 40+ hours on the server
and everytime the server restarted it got wiped
oof
so we are already scarred
welcome to survival games
we basically spend the first 6-8 hours
redoing everything 4 times
until we switched to my server
I have restarted the server about 5 times and it didnt get wiped
same but i also read from some people their server got wiped
that typically a home dedicated server
for now my assumption is, that since its only the config file that got messed up (that should be a file size of mear kb) they should be able to just copy the old backup config into the folder and just overwrite it
AS LONG as the backup file includes the config
but even if not you SHOULD be able to just get a default config file and overwrite your old one and just redo your settings
if my theory is right of course
I have default settings on the server anyway
its just keep showing different error when i trying to get in the setting
its horrible
i read that here in the game server issues thread so it wasn't a dedicated one
really wonder what's wrong with them
dunno if you wanna keep the default settings there are certain things that are better if you change them as far as i believe
but since we all can't access i can't tell you what i changed ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Yeah, I was just starting out with default to see what I wanted to change, I was gonne change it but got the error screen
just gotta let em figure it out, its something with server connection dont think it has much to do with game files. Just not locating save file essentially, which could be cause there servers are down.
one thing you defenitly wanna change (that said some settings turned out to not actually change what they should) is the egg incubating time
its like interwebs being down
this crap has a terrible normal setting
that was my main priority, felt like playing Ark
I changed so many settings in my old ark server
ark is a job
i also thought that it might have nothing to do with the game file itself but then my question is why did the support guy/girl ask me if i changed anything i can think of any reason i should change in a file if its just how the server is communicating
but my biggest problem with palworld settings was the incubating time
cause i think the error is it kind find the path, so you got an early response before they figure out there server connection is gon'
that my guess
i heard from all my friends that have incubators running
that the time is just too much
i mean i only set one egg into the incubator
and it said 18 hours
and then you mostly get crap out of it
depends on egg size
I got an egg that was 36 hours i think
you can catch a pretty awesome pal without issues in the wild
normal 3 large 24 huge 36 and massive 48
having to hatch a egg for days on end
and the result is some trash
doesn't feel right
i got blazehowl noct from a huge fire egg
it baffles me though since this issue is all over the place here on discord
how long do u guys think the egg incubation should be
not much you could do when internet is down
that internet compant problem
Other people servers keep switching to off?
also i recommend everyone to get a script that holds down your F key
that really helps a lot xD
i think most of the people here in this thread can't even access that part of the website
so no xD
what do u use for that?
Wowza
an old software i used back in the days for warcraft 3 to set custom keys for dota 1
called autohotkey
thanks
you can simple write a script run it
so when i hit f8
it holds down F for me
until i click it again
only problem is you can't tab out and surf on the internet
but at least you can go to the toilet
hope someone comes with a mod to do it
xD
if you want the script i can send it to you via pm
nah, steelseries app probably has a setting for it
oh yeah i think it does
when i googled for ways to hold down a key
it took me quite a while to find a good option for me xD
driven me crazy
You say the game wasnโt ready for different guilds and all this and that but all the officials are fine ๐
officials are still officials
Still same game lol
im no expert on that matter but i wouldn't write it off that they might have a better way to run their servers
So can you make a private official server for your buds?
Straight through game client?
you should be able to do that yes
well i mean if you make or own its not "official"
but you can make your own
But the means to have one that potentially does what gportal is attempting to do exists
In game
Hm
u said they answered you there is a problem with configs right now? But nothing specific to what?
but this might take you a while to find a good source
so basically i was running a ticket because my ping issues and then wrote a second question after that since 2 hours after writing the ticket i couldn't access my server anymore trough the website because of the config problem
the reply was pretty much as followed "I assume the problem happened after you changed something on the config file"
followed up by a second post "if so what did you change"
so infinite people cant access their servers and nothing is happening?
its been hours
our server was on default after fresh install and not working
we wanted to restart the server and now we cant access it anymore, really great
lowrolled host choice
@craggy marsh so i dontk now how that would make sense since our server was default
they got run over by the issues
is it possible to
they probably got thousands of tickets running right now
move a save file to the gportal server?
so what can you do
what exactly? the problem doesn't make sense or what he/she wrote to me
did yall try to move a save file onto the server as well?
no i never did anything with my server files ever
besides changing some of the default settings via the website
what she wrote to you. If that person said "what did you change in the config?... that those changes could make this error"
cause we were running default with no changes and still same error
i mean
in general it doesn't make sense
if its the game settings
how did it change on its own for so many people
and its pretty much the same if its just a server config
someone was mentioning somewhere that is gportals own ddos protection causing it. I don't know how valid that is.
i mean they said they got a ddos attack
maybe some major hacker changed all the config files for most of the people
im obviously kidding
xD
They say it's ddos but then they also say it's config settings, then others are saying it's because gportals servers have a memory leak
but i mean at this point im going with every option since its just a weird problem
Who really knows
not the g portal server got the memory leak
palworld got it
at least thats what i heard
so lets say one server is running and it starts with 2k ram just as an example
if there is ddos protection and 10s of 100s of thousands of attempts to access it i could see that maybe causing it if it wasnt ready
and over the time it adds up to 10k
now + the amount of servers
and they not communicating it with people that still buy servers
not knowing what the hell is going on
= pure Chaos
= more tickets
= more stress
and so on and on and on
but hey at least we got each other right? xD
Yeah they really should have had somebody doing damage control in regards to customer service
Transparency is key
some hours ago one of the discord mods actually said they added a note regarding the problems
and when i got home i saw that note
but it was the same design as other notes they had on their website before asking if you want to take a survey if i remember right
so for my part at least
if i wouldn't have read that they added a note
i would just automaticly clicked it away
like get out of my way i wanna look into my server
I'd just take my files and create a new server with them so I can play with my friends
Yeah
actually
thinking about that
doesn't even make any sense
the config can't be really game related can it?
if it would be game related
Very true
you should still be able to access the server files
If it was only game related I'd be able to access my game files
but the config thats bugged stops you from accessing entirly
took me long enough to realize that
Path: /cfgContext
(-32000, 'Not connected to 12932', {'jsonrpc': '2.0', 'error': {'code': -32000, 'message': 'Not connected to 12932'}, 'id': 'e0dd7bf7-aa96-41a3-8a4b-8013c8654eab'})
but i only got like 8 hours of sleep the past few days with work every day because of palworld xD
This is my error code
yeah we all got the same one
Smh
On the bright side when they fully resolve this it'll likely fix everybodies issues
That's probably also why they aren't focusing on tickets
don't roll back my server
I'd have my full team focus on a fix ASAP then once it's rolled out respond to all the tickets
i relocated my base and set up a second one
this was sooooo much work
don't wanna do that again xD
but also
Oh god, fortunely I wasn't super far ahead and only got to play on my server for about 7 hours
if you think about it
if its just the config file
and some line got changed or whatever
how is it not fixed yet
Yeah
Maybe Palworld has some spaghetti code servers and gportal has to actually understand it before attempting a fix
Palworld is a great game but it's definitely a copy pasta type game
apparently
i saw people from other games
having a config issue as well
the error code looks a bit different
but in total i suppose it might be the same
@craggy marsh ping me when you're server gets fixed so I can check on mine ๐ญ
since i gotta update my friends as well i probably can do that then too
@calm flare so i just woke up checked discord and the g-portal website
seemed like for some the server just suddenly worked again
same thing goes for mine its back up not even a roll back
but
all my pals are having a bad time
surpise surprise
i didn't get a response either
but apparently the server worked again since this time
thats basically the time i went to bed
lol
i got an compensation email yesterday
and when i checked
i almost had my 365 days again
so pretty much the 2-3 days got added again
Not bad
so it basically means i gotta go back to work in roughly 3 hours and all my friends can play like nothing happened
suuuucks xD
๐ญ What you do for work? @craggy marsh
uhm im a smelter, basically producing glass
Not bad, stay safe!!
@craggy marsh my server is still unreachable via gportal website ๐ so i set up my own server on an AWS instance and everything works PERFECTLY.
i mean if you didn't play yet thats obviously an option
will do, today its gonna be just sitting and checking temperatures so pretty boring actually
wish i could take my steamdeck and just play xD
Still having loading server problem rn...
Anyone had this:The detailed error was:
Response not successful: Received status code 504?
I guess server is crash again
Any guess on how long it take them to fix it?
nah
I was waiting for them to fix it last night, but they didn't fix it until I went to bed.
and now, my detailed error was "Timeout exceeded"
Same
They should have response to this, it's so frustrating
Anyone ever get this resolved from tickets? So far my response was
`Hello,
We apologize for the delay, due to the high volume of tickets, it is not possible to answer all our Customers as fast as we would love to.
We have encountered an issue with the hardware your server is on, I am very sorry about this.
We have reported this to our Sys Admins and we are currently waiting to hear back from the Data Center for updates on the hardware being fixed.
Again, We apologize for the inconvenience`
How did you do this? I'm down to do this for my friends, but I have no idea how it works
That's what I got
my server came back this morning. No lost world or character, just servers are down on g portal side of things
nothing to do with palworld as i expected last night
@azure wraith welcome back
what up
Was the same for me
When I checked the website this morning when I woke up
Everything was back to normal
I went into my server and I didn't even have a minute roll back
server came back for me, only problem was i was falling through world so had to change death drop penalty temp so i didnt lose anything then change back after i was safe with my items and pals at base
Falling trough the world doesn't kill you I think
knew it wasnt a palworld issue as all the other non g portal servers were running
When my server was fresh and I joined I hugged trough the world all the time
no it doesnt but couldnt get items back as they were under world
Just had to reconnect 1-2 times
Funny enough
My ticket got answerd like 40 minutes ago
mine hasnt been answered yet lol
but server running so ill move on and catch em all lol
I mean the answer I got was basically worth nothing
Since the original ticket I had was about my ping issues
I asked how long a hardware transfer would take
And after that I saw that I couldn't get access anymore the config error code
So I asked about that as well
Mines still down,,,, three days I've waited
And at the end the message I got now was only about my ping
That being it that high isn't strange because the game isn't optimised
And not a single word
About the config error
It's like they don't even wanna solve your issues
Like I'm sorry but come on there was not a single help approach what so ever
And then you gotta wait a day again for the next text exchange
And so on and so forth like how do they even expect to fix a problem like this
Or like Pells you don't even get a reply at all ๐
yea the customer service is non existent, which is bonkers when you have a high demand game/server that everyone is fricken playing lol
palworld passed cs go last night as most played steam game
Yeah I saw that too ๐ and many people apparently couldn't even play like me and you
the thing too regarding servers, is if you in palworld discord they pumping out updates to fix xbox/microsoft store server/game issues but nothing for steam so makes me believe more of issue is in that version of gmae then steam. cause they dont even mention steam problems
Has anyone gotten any sort of communication from them other than templated responses?
no in here they blame "software" and support ticket via website they dont reply
As far as I'm aware the steam version is actually a newer and better one
But that might also be the reason why they are currently working on the game pass one
To get that running
We don't know what the deal was between them and Microsoft ๐
What's crazy is it only cost them 10k to create the game
Wait one more day until I get my next reply I got a bit "passive aggressive" in my last response
Ugh
Just lame having to wait days for a product I purchased
When others still have access
@calm flare honestly I really feel bad for you
Not being able to play for days would piss me the hell off
What's worse is I'm not working atm and only studying at home
Soo I have a ton of free time
Lmao
I also told the support team in my last reply that they are causing this ticket influx themself and they are getting tons of useless tickets they have to fight trough that aren't rly a problem
Yeah unfortunately
And the way they work on the tickets is just the worst case scenario ever
I keep you updated what they gonna tell me next...
Ill lyk once my servers back up lol
I can help you set it up, it is definatley not the most cost effective solution so far. I am still working on scaling the server specs down to see how low i can get it before its unplayable
That's cool! I was going to test out their GameFlight or whatever it's called after I finished working today
I have not been able to direct connect to my serve I bought 2 days ago... keep getting a connection timeout message ?
no answer to my ticket either ... I'm not really sure what to do at this point .
Don't worry, some servers have been down since yesterday, mine since 9 a.m. This is the answer from support:
There are currently technical problems with the hardware. Our technicians are already working on a solution to the problem so that your server can function as usual again as quickly as possible. We apologize for the outage.
but yet I see servers hosted by gportal in the server list
They have several hardware and servers. We just caught the one with problems ๐
