I can't get to the site

[Kadaverium]

Hello, I'm new here but I have been playing MZ for some months.

I have a problem: the last 3 days I couldnt get to the site, what comes out is:

The requested URL could not be retrieved

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.managerzone.com/index.php

The following error was encountered:

Unable to determine IP address from host name for www.managerzone.com
The dnsserver returned:

No DNS records
This means that:

The cache was not able to resolve the hostname presented in the URL.
Check if the address is correct.

I cleaned the cache, deleted cookies but this is the third day that i cant login. I have a 56k modem. I saw on this site, on the news that the crew has been fixing problems and there were some, but 3 days??? what's wrong?

Thanks for your help

Works fine for me...

I have had the same problem since Thursday evening, if anyone could find the IP address for the site so I can mess around with my PC I think I know a solution to get onto MZ... it might say on the status bar in IE when connecting to the site.

Thought it might be my PC, ran a virus scan and ad-aware but nothing.

I'm on MZ again.

I looked up domain info for managerzone.com, and got the name servers. Entered one into a site, and got the IP. Then edited the HOSTS.SAM (SAM = sample) file and saved as "HOSTS". I entered the IP and domain and it works.

Anyway, download the file and put it into "CWindows". You should now be able to get onto MZ.

Disclaimer: I don't take any responsibility for any problems it may cause, use at your own risk... hehe Shouldn't cause any problems really but if the IP changes, the site may not load again. In which case I'll have found the new IP and have a new working file.

 

[Kadaverium]

thanks for your help but it seems it already loaded once again.

 

[chris boston]

Cool, saved you some effort then.

dunno what's wrong this time, but it takes hours to load MZ at the moment.
I was on and suddenly the site stalled and won't open anymore.
No error messages, it just sticks at trying to find the site.

 

[Ash]

yeh I can't get on now either. Hope its back for the league games later on.

 

[doorzon]

me too, but also was wondering if my bid on a player still stands.
And for apologising FC Kàder for ruining his friendly schedule and trying to fix that.

 

[Hugo-45-Viana]

I lost a player a few hours ago because it took my player off from the shortlist until the second after the bidding was over. I spent ****ing 30 minutes on that, crew have some 'splainin' to do.

 

[doorzon]

managed to get on today for a whole 5 minutes.
after that got shifted back to the logon page, entered the site, went to the forum, read one topic and it got stuck once again.

I'm getting a bit p*ssed of here

 

[Rami]

I can't get on at all

 

[Kadaverium]

I am having the same problem again today. What's the problem? Is it my PC or the server?

It seems that when they try to improve the game or the site they make it worse or create new problems.

 

[chris boston]

I'm not sure, think it's the PC as my fix was adding a file on my PC, and my dad's PC on the same internet connection could access MZ while mine couldn't.

Anyway, the problem is the DNS details can't be accessed or something. When it looked up the domain it can't find the DNS details so it can't retrieve the IP address for the site... so the PC can't access the site.

 

[Ash]

woah!!

I got a respose from johan:

By johan (Crew) Tuesday 00:14
We changed lines... it should be OK now. Still having problems?

not much but what do you expect from him?

Anyway check whether its working properly now

 

[Kadaverium]

No, still not working for me

The dark green background appears, and while it loads the index.php the typical message i posted appears. I dont know what to do.

Dammit, this really bothers me. I dont think many people will pay for this game if this keeps happening

Please someone at least check for me how my team did on the last league match, by searching my name. Thanks.

 

[chris boston]

You won 3-0 away to go top of the league.

 

[Kadaverium]

thanks!

 

[Kadaverium]

another day with the same problem...

i don't want to sound paranoid, but is this some kind of conspiracy against me?
