Login Server Busy?

Nobgul · 07-12-10, 09:10 PM

Been watching the official forums and nothing about the login server being down or busy. Anyone else getting such a error?

As well on the beta forums i can't seem to select a toon to post as 0_o.

I am trying a repair of live then a reinstall as suggested on a few threads in the tech support beta forum...

I will let you know how I go - currently at 80%

Edit: Forgot to add that yes there was an error in my live install for a wav file

Your reinstalling the ahhhhh i think i got what your saying. the beta install pulls files from your live install eh.

I guess i will wait for you to try it out. Did you save the patch files from the beat though? they took a bit to download here.

Yeah the beta install uses your live install as a base.

Yup i saved the patch files before deleting the original beta install

They are currently patching up now. I will let you know if it works or not.

Didn't work

I am at a loss myself now...

Have you tried to log into the official beta forums?

As I said in the other thread I can't seem to select my "toon" from the top right side. If this is the same with you it is possible that the keys that were given to WOWI are not "activated" for use yet, or it could be that the account data from live hasn't propagated into the beta? Just a few thoughts. Would like to hear from some of the other authors that got keys if they are having the same issue.

I have the same issue, I finished patching ~6 hours ago and since then have been unable to connect. Ah well.

The error Login Servers Are busy was reported by myself and lowlee when the auth servers were still online as people were playing. Not sure if the servers are back up as i dont have wow on this pc. But i am looking forward to checking it out.

Edit. At this time battle.net is still down so will have to wait another 2 hours or so dang!

Well, while the "login servers are busy", why not enjoy the sexy classic login screen?

I have a few memories of staring at it when my realm had a queue.

It took me all night to get it all installed and patched up. This morning the login server was busy, and same again now.

I'm all disappointed now
