Title: Help Please
Post by: Icey on May 10, 2003, 04:34:07 pm
When i try to connect to the server it says

There is an error in the database on your account. Please contact your PS Admin for help.

Ive been reading around a bit about this and the main cause for this error seems to be using a firwall while playing the game, but i am not using a firewall on any kind.

OS: Windows XP Professional
Processor: AMD 1 Gigahert
RAM: 256
Video Card: GForce 4
Video Card Memory: 64mb
PS Client Version: Latest one (just downloaded)
OpenGL or Safe Mode: Both

It could be that your provider is running a firewall. You might want to check your provider does so.  ?(
Or maybe you are using a router (you\'re on a network) and the router has certain ports closed or uses a hardware-firewall.  ?(

BTW, even though you downloaded the latest version, you\'ll still have to run the updater, or /spawn will not work correctly.
