I downloaded the patch from here but now Eve says it can't find the server on 87.237.38.200
Has the server gone down or is there some other problem?

The server is down for emergency reboot.
They sent out an in-game note, and a minute later the server connection was lost. |

3rd reply is a charm!!!! Same issue for me.
I would ask that people just chill out and be patient. CCP will get this squared away just like anything else. No need to yell and whine or just generally get foul about it. I would rather the server be down to address some issues then be left up, lagged out, and just absolutely miserable.
BTW- I do have a skill that is done so no moanin about needing to switch skills...
Just give CCP some time and it will be back soon enough!!!

What bothers me the most is that it's been like every 2 weeks and the servers are down and another small patch is released.
Know what?
I don't care about all these small patches. Determine what you want to fix/enhance, document it, wait and release a big patch perhaps every couple months. I've spent about 15% of time on EVE waiting for them to get the servers back online. It's getting old quick.

I have the same problem about that "Unable to connect to 87.237.38.200 on port 26000" message. CCP should always put a clear message on their site front page or some kind of server status like in most online games. Wouldn't be easier for everyone to know it is not our machine?

You know, with all these 'little' patches, I'm starting to feel like I'm back at SOE's somewhat mediochre game based on a certain set of 'space conflict' movies.
This said, at least here the developers still know what they're doing with the game...
... I hope.

"Emergency" reboot?
Next time give us five minutes to get our drones back into the bay and our ships docked please! 
I lost three drones, not expensive ones, but they are hard to get where I'm now.
Besides, I agree with the opinion "please accumulate patches and don't shoot the server down every two weeks".
This behaviour is REALLY annoying. The upgrade to the new servers could have been done two weeks later as well and then in conjunction with this blood patch.
Again:
I AM annoyed by this.

...which is something I also don't understand (I mean the downtime). It's standard for almost 20 years now that one does not have to shutdown a database backend for backups.
And the other stuff can be done using so called "transactions".

Perhaps you were not reading WHY this reboot was "necessary"? ;)
Edit: It apparently has something to do with some bugs in the character generation. Also not so "urgent" that it is an excuse for annoying people.

doesnt bother me that they had to take server down for emergency repairs, what ****ed me off is they didnt give me anytime to get to a safe spot, was in the middle of battle with npc, webbed scrammed and a battleship npc peckin on my hull, get the reboot warning and poof server goes down.........
that IMHO is bullsh!t give a man at least 5 min......
and of coarse if i loose my ship i am screwed.........
THANKS CCP!
is it to much of a problem to give the players a little more warning than 60 seconds ? Do you guys even care?? ( probly not )

I just want to take a moment to say, "All your base are belong to us"
Seeing how I just enjoy reading forums and not ever taking part in one, I thought today would be a good day to lose my inhibitions.
Before I go, i just want to tell all those people crying about downtime and skills, "All your base are belong to us" and i hope to move zig soon.

I would rather the money I pay them to go toward actually striving toward a goal of keeping the game up and online 24/7. I don't think that's asking a whole lot. After all, how many thousands of businesses across this entire planet rely on such availability?
At jobsite I worked 8 years ago, the company contracted out spare processor usage on their mainframes to other companies. In other words, this company charged X dollars/month to allow another company to load data onto their systems to be processed. If this company's network connection or internal systems went offline, it meant they lost a lot of money quickly.
But, CCP is charging me a steady fee regardless of the amount of downtime. Yes I suppose the old argument "I can go play somewhere else if I don't like it" comes into effect here, but if they are not told this is substandard quality of service, they will continue to operate in this manner.
I reiterate my previous post: make a list of enhancements or changes you want to do and roll them out perhaps once every couple months, not every other week!
I wouldn't call it "substandard qos", but I'd say "suboptimal use of available technology".
1. Concurring database access is NO PROBLEM with any of todays available database backends, even MS Access can do that.
2. You can even perform full database backups (although theres a performance hit, but that could be minimized when planning the agents to a time of day when there is only a small number of subscribers online).
3. Database operations can be encapsulated in so called "transactions" - and they don't interfere with each other (by definition - this is one of the reasons they were introduced in the 1970's!).
Only problem would be server sided software changes or maintenance of things that happen in memory tables, but as far as I understand the technology, there is nothing critical that can't be accomplished while the game is up and running.

Don't you dare compare the great EvE to that umentionable wannabe space MMO from that unmentionable wannabe MMO company. I suffered for 2 years playing that game, and EvE is far and above what "that other game" was. Patches that broke more than they fixed, patches that unbalanced things horribly, patches that added pitiful content, etc, etc, etc! With EvE's one shard setup, bugs and delays hurt more, but its what makes EvE worth playing. I would much rather have a little more downtime to fix the last bit of bugs than to suffer though bugs that break whole professions, and then take another week to patch the patch.
EvE has a LONG way to fall before it gets even CLOSE to the mess that SWG was.

the people at CCP seem to do an awefull lot of work trying to keep us happy. Let them do their work!
@ ccp, what are you thinking?
1. shortly after a MASSIVE server park upgrade which wasn't really perfect yet.. it was waiting for trouble.
2. Check the concurrent online player stats for a minute and give the massive playerbase which seem to center arround EU primetime a brake for once. I'd love to see an update from 2 am till after regular downtime.
Created one of those cheap extra accounts just when we got the chance... and already lost a day of playtime :(

Fair point, Serendipity.
However, the beginning of the end was indeed heralded by short-notice patches that, as you say 'broke more then they fixed'.
Ah, the days of walking on the worlds of Bria and Farstar are behind me now. One should remember the good times, but be wary of future ills.
To be honest, I'm not intending to compare the two but rather bring attention that Eve has (and will continue to) out-live that other, unmentioned Galaxy.

Yup, I just saw that. It's been pushed back to 2100. I guess they keep pushing back 1 hour whenever they need.
You want to know why I'm so mad about this? I do mean what I wrote in my previous posts, but the very fact that this status message is up telling us to wait until 2100 is really ticking me off.
This tells me that their development did not do an adequate job of testing this new patch. WTF is the new patch for anyway? I didn't see any differences at all from the previous one. The entire test process of the patch should be deployed to a development cluster (which they have) and tested thoroughly before put into production. Well, it's quite obvious that it wasn't tested well enough. Consider this: did they put sufficient time into actually developing this patch to begin with? Remember they just got done with a massive hardware upgrade recently that also required a patch so it seems that they were focused on that project. Here it is a couple weeks later and another one. Doesn't seem like a lot of time to me.

My first ever 2 cents on these forums, (yes, theres ALOT to read when new to the game)...
1: Manual patch is being proposed by my client, but what version to download ? (would help to have a nemed patch, instead of just numbers...)
2: PPL mention some text saying "hopefully at ....."... uhm, my client does not have tht text anywhere :S
3: The accusations against CCP and the downtime: Yes, a good buisnessplan would be to accumulate the lost game time, and extend the accounts duration period in the other end...(pay for 32 days instead of 30 in general, as there is a 1 hour shutdown pr day as a minimum)
Still, CCP does a good job in notifying their players in advance of an un-sceduled downtime. Hey, they got new toys that need to be allignt propperly... remember that...
4: Hi EVE :P
1: If you load eve it tells you what version you are running in the corner
2: Dunno what's wrong there, look harder?
3: That's a bit silly, every MMO has downtime (well everyone i've played so far). It probably mentions the downtime in the EULA somewhere, I will go look it up.
4: Hi! :O
*edit*

While CCP attempts to have the System available at most times, CCP does not guarantee that the System will always be available, or that the System will not become unavailable during Game play. The System may become unavailable for a number of reasons, including without limitation during the performance of maintenance to the System, for the implementation of new software, for emergency situations and due to equipment or
telecommunications failures.

Quick Question
Is it always like this, or does the patches usually run smooth and on schedual?
My experiences with the server switch was good, so I kinda expected a neat 15.00 activation.
But I got what was coming to me .

Flaming or not for me,
Geez, this is pathetic, i not a buff in the way that there system is set, but damn, i would give money to see all of the whiner, even the ones that know how it works to go there fix the problems themselves, no better way, applied at CCP to go work there and fix there problem because you seem to know frickly more then them.
I hate it when they patch and then we need to log out because there is another problem, hey ITS HUMAN doing the coding and all, even if they try and THEY do there best, thing can slip out. I pay like everyone else to play this and paid for other MMO, Eve is the best one i'v seen to try to correct a problem on the spot when they can, ask this to Sony for a change.
Another thing, if you are tired of that, stop whining and cancel your account. Read your EULA correctly.
Don't you have anything to do beside Eve? You pay to have access 24/7, do you stay up 24/7? get break and refresh yourself.
Don't like my post, don't give a damn. Flame, i don't give S!"/. In then end Its a game, its not your life, if it is, you need help really.

Aye on server status
lol to them not making you pay for patches!
As for server down times, I have to agree that they are nothing compared to EQ or WoW. Yes they have to do it. Face it there is no business endevor(sp?) that doesn't 'reboot'. If you work in an office you reboot at the end of the day. YOU reboot when you sleep. Even an ER room reboots when then next shift comes in. It HAS to happen.
The only reason that it sucks so much is that we are capable of playing even when the servers are down, yes? Notice I didn't say able to play just capable.
So, the last word?
It still sucks; what a ya gona do? They got ya by the short hairs mate.

You can always tell when its patch day. Servers down and a big mean post about how CCP is so horrible and what they "should" have done. Yet, everyone goes back to the game. The player base grows daily and you wont hear much more whining until next patch. Get over it. Quit being forumn pirates  . CCP just completely replaced all they're server hardward, did a fine job at it I might add. Thats not something they HAD to do, they did it to improve the game for people like "But dont listen to me, im just another paying customer" who were complaining about lag. The Blood patch is introducing quite a lot into the game, including new bloodlines and quite a lot of other interesting updates. I'm sure it will be worth the wait. With every big patch, there will almost -always- be problems or issues. Get used to it. Now that i've voice my opinion, notice the flames I get for backing CCP up. Though honestly? I dont care Flame away.

Fixes to resolve the major patch issues are being ported over to Tranquility. We will make a couple checks, then start the server up if the checks are passed.
Please keep in mind that there may be a high number of travel advisory pop-ups when the server comes back up. The 'grace period' on start-up has been extended, but it will need some tweaks over the coming days to find the right balance.

What grace period?????
And Yay my first post gets over 100 replies
about time because i bet most of these people almost tried becoming important in THIS galaxy rather than a fictional one.

I agree with LeBob. You simply don't know what's wrong. The only thing we know is that they are fixing it. As far as I know, I don't know of any online game that does such a good job op supplying new content regularly, making their game balanced so regularly, and maintaining a high bug free standard. Frankly, I think you're all very spoiled with Eve and if you knew just about a little how hard it is to maintain a game like Eve 23/7, you'd know that the cost of going from 23/7 to 24/7 would mean at least a doubling of the fees we have to pay now.
Give them time, they'll get it right.

then why dont you cancel your subscription and be done with it? you're right. all they ever do is **** up. that's why you're obsessed with getting into the game right now.

I hear the same level of frustrated complaints from people whos car wont start in the morning or get stuck by a bus not turning up. If people are just as affected by a game not working, they should seriously reassess their life priorities. Anyway, it's a cold night where the server is: the chokes busted, started motors stuffed and they have to hand crank it. Give 'em a break :p
