It might worth taking another peek at the logfile for Semiblitz. Although it's a bit hard to tell (no timeout and the server saying it's at turn 1) there appears to be no activity in this game.

It appears that it is no longer possible to upload maps. I'm getting Error 500: Internal Server Error straight after the upload.

Map uploads may be fixed. The permissions on the map upload dir was really strange; I don't know how that happened.

I've killed the Dom_in_Cam!_Again! game. I'm sure I will hear if they were playing

The Last one will have to wait --- I have to go now! Thanks for the effort :-D

Mose - can you let me know when it's safe to start Try Something New, which is configured to play on the world map ?

Esben has installed world.map, but when I tried to start Try Something New, it nagotted. The game was then stopped. I restarted to find the game still in the open state. Tried again, same result. Any ideas?

we've experienced exactly the same problem w/ our Throne_of_heavens game. Any time we try to start, it nagots w/ "connection to server is broken".

both games involved upping modified maps, but i'm not sure how that would be a problem? unless they were installed incorrectly, like w/out proper permissions???

This problem is still happening.
I don't think any new games have been successfully started in the Last couple of days.

Could be a problem with the ".map" file - for Dom2, it needs to have a line that says the name of the ".tga" file, but in addition, for mosehansen, the ".tga" and the ".map" need to have the same filename.

So - it has to be "modifiedworld.map" and "modifiedworld.tga", and the "modifiedworld.map" has to have been updated to reflect the "modifiedworld.tga" filename.
