Technical Support & Bugs

I was able to connect with 3.0, and then DLed the new version.

Now when I try to connect to the server, I get the the following error.

Any tips?

Network Communicaton Error

I’m not sure but if you are under LINUX : you had to install java from SUN…

if this can help you…

Thus spake “Archus”:

What OS are you using?

Can you check whether your firewall is preventing VASSAL from connecting?

Is the problem repeatable? If so, what are the exact steps you must take
to cause it?

Using Vista 64

I assume that nothing is blocking it from my end, as 3.0 was working moments before I upgraded.

Repro steps:
Execute Vassal 3.1.0 via desktop shortcut.
Open WoWMinis mod (v. 1.4)
Select ‘Look for a game online’ and click ‘Finish’

This generates the error.

Note: Others are playing the mod with this version without issue.

Was something changed between 3.0 and 3.1 that would cause a firewall to treat them differently?

Thus spake “Archus”:

I don’t have the version 1.4 of the module. I don’t see this problem when
running 1.5 with VASSAL 3.1.0 or 3.1.1.

No, not that I’m aware of.

I have two guesses as to the cause of what you saw:

  1. You were having a connectivity problem.
  2. You were having some kind of strange Windows problem.

In either case, these should be transient, so my suggestion is to reboot
and see if it works for you now. Then, try upgrading to both the current
versions of VASSAL and the module. If, after doing that, you still have
this problem, let me know so we can investigate further.
