The funnny thing is it worked fine on my computer for the first week - no problems. This was before the latest updates were made.
I tried IE, Firefox and Safari. I doubt it's a browser problem. It seems more like the server is losing my session data.
Check this out:
1.)
I NAvigate to
http://www.battledawn.com/forum/ and click on login
I get this:
ucp.php?mode=login&battlegate_prod_sid=fdcfd198209bb693ee0e8f9829f99ab1(obviously the session id differs each time...)
the login form is this:
<form action="./ucp.php?mode=login&battlegate_prod_sid=4d999e56348fa26478ac755a01443015" method="post" style='text-align: center;'>
<input type="hidden" name="from" value="" />
<table class="tablebg" width="400px" cellspacing="1" style='margin: 0px auto 0px auto;'>
<tr>
<th colspan="2">Login</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style='text-align: center;'class="row2">
<table align="center" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="4" style="width: 300px; margin: 0px auto 0px auto; text-align: left;">
<tr>
<td valign="top" ><b class="gensmall">Username:</b></td>
<td><input class="post" type="text" name="username" size="25" value="" tabindex="1" />
<br /><a class="gensmall" href="./ucp.php?mode=register&battlegate_prod_sid=4d999e56348fa26478ac755a01443015">Register</a>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" ><b class="gensmall">Password:</b></td>
<td>
<input class="post" type="password" name="password" size="25" tabindex="2" />
<br /><a class="gensmall" href="./ucp.php?mode=sendpassword&battlegate_prod_sid=4d999e56348fa26478ac755a01443015">I forgot my password</a><br /><a class="gensmall" href="./ucp.php?mode=resend_act&battlegate_prod_sid=4d999e56348fa26478ac755a01443015">Resend activation e-mail</a> </td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="cat" colspan="2" align="center"><input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="ucp.php?mode=login&battlegate_prod_sid=fdcfd198209bb693ee0e8f9829f99ab1" />
<input type="hidden" name="battlegate_prod_sid" value="4d999e56348fa26478ac755a01443015" />
<input type="submit" name="login" class="btnmain" value="Login" tabindex="5" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
2.)
I then login and it takes me to:
ucp.php?mode=login&battlegate_prod_sid=1e66b1369c2c2c105f5567936ee0fa9fpart of the HTML is this:
<p class="gen">You have been successfully logged in.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.battledawn.com/forum/?battlegate_prod_sid=0e573573309a112c75637b98062e1cbc">Return to the previous page</a></p>
It then automatically redirects after a second or so to this:
?battlegate_prod_sid=0e573573309a112c75637b98062e1cbcjust showing the forum page and NOT showing that I'm logged in.
It seems like each request to your server generates a new session id. I suspect that is why I can only log in as explained in my initial post. The same thing happens but because I ticked 'log me in automatically' it does another login behind the scenes and let's me in (sometimes...)
This is really a problem for me, I can only get into the game 1 out of 6 (to 10) times. I really think this is something for your developers to look into.
I'm not even talking about logging in from the game client (i.e.
http://www.battledawn.com/client/client.php?ver=13.2.0) as the login screen just freezes after I click login - I can never login like this. I suspect if the session id problem can be resolved I would be though.
I have also done a ping and tracert and all looks fine (average is 400ms);
Please pass this on to your developer(s) to look into. Thanks.

Pierre
