padmahas Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Hello all, Its been so many months since I played this game. When I was playing using Alpha 16 (Patanjali), I was able to connect to lobby (or other multiplayer option. I've forgotten), where I could see all online community players were listed and I could create a game to let join others etc. But Now when I try to login to lobby, I'm getting an error message "Resolving the server's hostname failed". I neither cannot connect to other multiplayer modes. Is that feature deprecated? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imarok Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 What version of the game are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padmahas Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 The most recent one, Alpha 21 Ulysses. My OS is Ubuntu 16.04. I've installed corresponding 0ad release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Hello @padmahas and welcome to the forums, To answer your question no lobby isn't deprecated. Did you by any chance change your router ? If so are you using IPV6 ? That feature isn't supported yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
padmahas Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Hi Stanislas, I think, previously I had connected cable directly from the receiver to my system. No its connected to router and then from router to my system. And yeah I'm using IPV6. And I also believe port forwarding has nothing to do with connecting to lobby as long as I want to host my own game. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Stan` Posted May 7, 2017 Report Share Posted May 7, 2017 Is there a way you could use IPV4 ? Else unless you code IpV6 support for the game I'm afraid there isn't much to be done 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwtour Posted January 8, 2022 Report Share Posted January 8, 2022 (edited) <necroposting> After updating the distribution, this non-trivial problem appeared Solution: it is necessary to check for the presence of the line xmpp-client 5222/tcp in /etc/services - without them libgloox return "Resolving the server's hostname failed"</necroposting> Edited January 8, 2022 by nwtour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
