So Im pretty new to eve. I think getting close to rounding out my 2nd month. I already put in alot of money into this game. Bought two of the 2nd 10 year bundles. One for myself, one for a long time player who told me check the game out. I have bought alot of plex already, to get ships etc. To be ready to go...
What I didnt expect, was this.... since last week, every time I started eve there was a patch. About three days into that, you know someone screwed up something somewhere. Well today, it now hits me.
Launcher just sits, does nothing, whether signed in or not. Ok....check the forums, nothing useful that I have seen yet to help me. So after trying the repair tool, which failed everytime. I said ok we ll reinstall. Yay. NO. Downloaded the install from the eve page, ran it, it failed. Thats where Im at, not happy, and ready to cancel on this game, even after all that waste of money. Unacceptable. I know crap happens, but your big thing, is youve gone this long, your game is so tight and youre all on top of it, then why can I even reinstall the game now?
Hope I get some help.

Have you tried contact Customer Support?
Or listing error messages?
I know neither I or many of my friends are having problems.
If you could give some information about your system, Im sure we can help

First, go learn some english.
Second, there is nothing to list. It failed, repair tool fails, fails 2 or 4 seconds in. What else is there to day?
Third, reinstall fails, just stops, there is no message.

In my day job I encounter users like you all the time
What machine are you running?
What operating system?
If there was a wide spread issue, dont you think other people would have noticed?
Therefore it must be either a corrupted download, an non-fuctioning driver or something else local
However, without information, Im not sure how you expect sensible help
Getting irate and being aggressive when people try to help doesnt really make anyone sympathetic to helping you, especially when its quite frankly the wrong place for technical issues.
Have you tried running the exe file directly, independant of the launcher? This solves 99% of launcher issues |

If the game ran fine yesterday and the game hasn't changed, then logically the problem isn't the game client.
What else about your computer has changed in that time? Does anyone else us the computer besides yourself? Nullsec in a Nutshell: http://nedroid.com/comics/2006-08-24-2155-arrrdino.gif |

Thank you Mr epeen, Ill go check that out. To other people here who ask for stuff that isnt needed.... Its not like Im new to gaming, you dont need to know what Im running etc. I said the game ran yesterday, I was in, I filled up my training que, on two accts. What else is there to say? I didnt do anything since then to corrupt my computer, etc. So no point in sharing what isnt gonna matter....
Plain and simple, this last update, messed me up.
And we all know users/players like you, they comment on other peoples posts to make themselves feel more important. Youre actually just being useless.

Sigh,,,, I had already tried running the exe by itself, which does nothing but bring up a launcher that doesnt work. So... after that. Looked for more info, didnt find anything. Downloaded the eve installer, ran it, it failed like 10 seconds in....said trouble getting payload...thats it. Repair.exe before I uninstalled, did nothing but fail. Every other game on my computer works fine. Star wars, FF14, etc. So again....the patch, latest one has now made it unplayable, not sure how many more times I need to say this.
Seraph
and when this posts....which I just tried to do, and it said I can only post once every five mins, since my acct is less than two days old. Umm this acct is 2 months old. So another problem? |

But you are being a elitist arse.. >_>
The fact that this issue seems to be localised to you, would suggest that it is localised to your PC. You may think you are some bigshot IT guy, but you may be overlooking something simple which someone else here may be able to suggest and get you back on track to flying spaceships.

One issue that I had been having recently with the game was due to DirectX and my AMD card. Changed it from DirectX11 to 9 and the issues have gone.

I shouldnt be bothered to attempt to help, you have an attitude. In one of your later messages you mentioned a problem with the payload (this information is very useful, shouldve been included in your first post)
Try using the offline installer. Delete CCP/EVE directories from Program Files and from My Documents, then download the 3 files and run the executable:

Again, have any of you actually helped? nope. A dev would hopefully have some answers. Just goes to show, as usual, I stated right off what was wrong, and all the f tards come out. Im really not sure how to keep saying, it worked yesterday, now it doesnt. Nothing changed on my end other then a patch from eve. So... As far as sharing a game with you? lol, I dont care. I dont play for you, nor do I care about you. I pay for a game, that is now broken, and cant seem to get any help from anyone with a brain. I have tried everything. So hey all you people who are so great, stop posting here, maybe somebody who can actually help will post here.

no you didn't state anything important that would show me you are a "pro"....
you tried to reinstall...sure, did you delete ALL the files that get left on a system? Do you even know where they are located? Not working reinstalls only have 2 possible reasons: leftover files/reg entries and corruped installers.
But thats the only thing i will say, you may be frustrated, but aggravating ppl who want to help is just beeing an arse.
p.s. a "pro" would have state his system (OS at least), explained how he did a clean install, logged the error messages, and more). |

I have a feeling that their game is not patched. Launching the EXE directly runs the installer which then runs the launcher to patch.

Another fairly common problem (especially on comcast) is that there is a bad entry to the patch (or game) server in a routing cache. These are usually semi-localized geographically - and would explain the 502 error people in the other thread see. |

OK, the story as it happened... Got on the computer today, ran eve. Launcher came up. Bar at bottom, says 1/4 updating some such, 0.0 percent. Whether I logged in or not. It stayed that way, however signed in, the play button was grayed out. Hmm,,,whats up I'm thinking. So I run it again and again and again, reboot the computer. Nothing. Now I know the game has had like minimum five patches in the last week. And whatever was done in the last day messed me up. As I stated, I was in the game yesterday filling up my training que on two accts. Everything worked fine. So moving on....after all that. I went here to the eve forums, and as of yet. Nothing suggested, which for the most part. Was run the repair tool. I'm like OK...run that. Fails 4 seconds in. Again, 4 seconds again fails. Something line 365 was last thing showing on the repair tool. OK...reboot again, run it again. Same thing. So check here again, OK run the exe from inside the eve folder. Game didn't launch. But the launcher did. Umm OK, was that supposed to happen? everyone on here said it would run the game, it didn't. So I'm like damn it, I'm gonna have to reinstall, other people are doing that. Their mess up, but OK Ill reinstall the game to fix their problem. Nope. The reinstall doesn't even work. It fails on its bar like a third in, 10 seconds. One, nothing else is wrong on my computer, everything works, every other game I have loaded. Two, I have eset, it is set to ignore all my games. Also, the forums say my account is less then two days old when I try to post? This account is two months old. As I stated in my original statement right off. So now I don't know if there is another issue going on as well. I logged here obviously to post, so I would assume I'm not compromised. No spyware, no adware, no viruses on my computer. Other people on here are reporting the same thing. Happy?
here more useless info.... win7 64 bit. 8 gigs of ram 450gt vid card 500 gig hard drive cable from comcast |

To be fair (not that the OP deserves it), there are 2 exe files.
One executes the launcher (wrong one to try and Billy suggested the other one)
The other doesn't execute the launcher and goes straight to the login screen (this is the one Billy was suggesting). |

How uch you've sunk into the game is irrelevant and creates no implied entitlement for assistance from other players. However people are genuinely trying to help you.
Have to tried running exefile.exe?

Well, nothing. Cleared whole computer of eve stuff, ran the installer file again it fails. Went to a eve website, logged in, tried to download the three files there. One being the installer, which was exactly the same as what I had. Downloaded it anyways, tried to download payload 1 or payload 2. Nothing happens. Page just fails each time I try to download those, which is supposed to allow me to get going if the installer by itself dont work. Just my luck, it dont work. Again, I can download or stream, get data, play other games and post on here. Im lost. Have no idea what is going on. I am having no other issues and at this point, I am pretty p oed to say the least and might as well cancel. Some of you have tried to help, but no ccp person has put up anything, nor have I seen anything anywhere that can help. Why I cant be frustrated and mad is beyond me, but I am. Thanks for a few here who tried to help. Just leave the thread, cause me getting madder and madder over this isnt helping me. Nor anyone else.
Take care. |

I am certain now that it is not on CCPs end, it is a junk cache on comcast. Either that or the eve launcher messed your pc up so bad that your browser no longer works =D |

This isn't the best place to ask for official CCP support. It's a community forum, not the helpdesk.
You need to raise a support ticket, which you can do through the website. At the top right of screen in the 'Eve Universe' dropdown. From there you can select "Support".
You'll have to login to your account, but you can raise a ticket for assistance.

This one time, my car was broken down. So I called a friend of mine who also drives a car, and I told him his car was broken because mine was broken. And when he said his was working just fine, I acted like a complete bag of dicks to him because his car was obviously just as broken as mine because mine didn't have any broken parts.
I was surprised when my friend told me to **** off.

Had the same problem a couple of years ago. Was a corrupt file in an upstream transparent squid cache. I had access to the cache so could flush the offending URI, but you may be a bit stuck. If you have an alternate internet option you may want to try that, at least until you get by the part where you're getting stuck.

Well for anyone who cares still. here is a update... Went to wifes computer, went to eve where you can download the payloads....bam they downloaded np. So moved them thru the network to my computer. Ran the exe and those files in the same folder.....it got down. Slow though on the extract. Anyhow....hit finish, run eve on the checkbox. Didnt work, never worked the first time I installed eve either. So double clicked the icon it put on the desktop and wham launcher started, kicking and screaming flashing, but it started, everything loaded up, pictures, etc. Bottom bar showed same thing....nothing happening. Put in name and password.....bottom bar nothing happening. Play button grayed out. Ran repair tool, nothing it failed just like before. So now Im back to where I was when I first posted, with a less patched game now. Yay. So dont know what to do. During all this frustration earlier, I put in a ticket on the website, since I of course cant get in the game. Nothing there either yet. |

You clearly fell for the hidden "too important be in this game" chek. Its a chek thats put to stop self important people wasting their time, by making other people waste their time trying to communicate with you. You need to find a solo player game, preferly a mobile phone game with no bugs to play.
Have fun your highness! |

Have you tried bypassing the launcher yet by running exefile.exe in the bin folder? |

I had a good laugh reading this thread. I had the same problem and was able to fix it. If OP wasn't such a self important asshat intent on telling off the several computer professionals that came into this thread to help him I would have been inclined to tell him how I fixed the problem but as it is more than a few steps I can't be bothered to use any more of my time on this thread than I already have.
Have fun. 0/ |

Nothing there either yet. try clearing you DNS cache, i already had the problem where the launcher messed up the DNS.
basically, in start menu, enter 'cmd' in search thingy, right clic -> run as administrator
now you enter this 4 commands:
ipconfig /release arp -d * ipconfig /flushdns ipconfig /renew
what these commands do:
release the ip disconnecting the network card clear the arp table clear the DNS cache re-ask for an IP to the DHCP, reconnecting your network card
once done, go in eve folder and launch game from the \bin\exefile.exe, if you are not up to date (you shouldn't), it will patch you by stating a quick setup then launcher.
let launcher do the update, once you can play, close the launcher, and restart from \bin\exefile.exe rince & repeat until no more patch (can happen to be a few in a row) |

I get similar behavior to this all the time on patch days with eve. My problem is that whenever eve fails to patch, for whatever reason, it corrupts the file ownership. You have to take ownership of the install location by force so that you can change the files in the eve install folder. Then reboot. Then use the repair tool. Or patch normally. Either works at this point for me. But for your case I'd recommend the repair tool. Only ever happens with eve. No idea why. |

The fact that this issue seems to be localised to you, would suggest that it is localised to your PC. You may think you are some bigshot IT guy, but you may be overlooking something simple which someone else here may be able to suggest and get you back on track to flying spaceships.
I also lol at your need to spend cash monies for plex
Hate to burst your bubble Paul but it is not just this player experiencing issues like this. There are a whole slew of players that either the installer or the launcher is borked. This is a KNOWN issue it is just not one they care to fix.
Yes, I am one of the ones that has the launchers issue and yes I have supplied CCP with all the info they have asked for and they are clueless.
I agree with the OP that giving you all, the normal player base, info that you are asking for is not needed as you can not access the game code for a possible fix. You can not fix what CCP has broken.

First off, I don't care what you people think you will do or try to do to me in the game. Oh noes, someone will try and kill my ship? gasp. Do what you think you can or must do. You don't bother me nor do I care. OK, so moving on.
Scrolled past the last 10 or so posts, after reading what a couple of people suggested which I'm about to try. I didn't flush the dns yet, but yes I ran the exe bin file that got me in a couple of times, so I got to fill my ques back up on my accts.
However, that no longer worked as of a hour ago, now it said oh there is updates, and it wont me past that, it just closes eve, opens the update, which does all this stuff. And then opens the launcher, and nothing. Same thing. It don't matter if I sign in or not, it just sits there. I try to run the repair tool from the launcher again, and even from the folder, nothing, it fails 4 seconds in.
Now, I'm gonna go back read the rest of the posts, and try anything else that was posted. Also, I put in a ticket on the website in support, that is now 24 hours with no response. I have even called Iceland, but I have to wait a bit more my time, to catch them open their time.
update, read the rest of the posts. LOL is all I can say. Trying to get help, whether I had a bad attitude or not is irrelevant. People shouldn't start stuff on other peoples threads. Personally, I would of loved to see what was either removed or said, send it to me personally in game so I can laugh. Anyhow, thank you to the others who supplied some things to try, doing those now, and thanks for any who supported me. Ill drop a update if anything works, so anyone else having this issue will get it resolved. |

Flushed everything. Took ownership of the eve folder, I think. Full control is on all users and admins. Rebooted. Nothing. Same thing, over and over. Run it from the bin folder....opens up, automatically says something was download, hit ok to let it do its thing. It opens a eve online box, does some stuff, then opens a small box saying its patching the launcher, then it goes back to the other box and finishes up. Then the launcher opens. Same thing, whether signed in or not, the bar at the bottom doesnt move. Says 1/4 validating 0/0 percent. Never changes. This process has repeated itself over 20 times today. No change. I ran the repair after the flush and reboot, twice now. Same thing, just fails 4 seconds in. Ah well, 45k people on as of this typing. And I never had a problem till 2 days ago. Thanks ccp.

I dont run windows, but the fact that all updates always stalls at 0% usually either means it cannot contact download server, or unable to start writing to disk.
Since OP can't download the binary + 2 data files from website either, it seems like a provider issue. Its 3 normal files downloaded via normal HTTP, that should work, that is, if you are using this page: http://community.eveonline.com/support/download/offline-installer/ I would start digging into that first OP, if you rightclick those 3 links and select SAVE AS to disk, and that fails: Are you running any antivirus software blocking downloads? Any "download speed accelerator" or something fancy like that? Can you download other large files from other websites or do they fail too?
Others who have the files downloaded but stalls at 0%, could this be a permission issue? Not sure if its possible but try run it as administrator or elevated privileges? |

ISD you are trolling this thread yourself .. half of the thread is a troll
The first answer posted is total troll, completely ridiculous this is how it really translates = Hi op, I'll assume you are an alien and have no clue what you are doing, and at the same time even though i have no clue what i'm doing i'll pretend I know exactly how to resolve this .. first .. are you using an alien version of windows from another planet .. because we all know how eve doesn't cope with versions of windows which were never made don't we.
I mean seriously .. they assume no one else ever had a problem in eve? and anti virus .? yes everyone in the world with half a brain uses ******* anti virus .. is eve the only program left that can't deal with anti virus? Its the only program on my computer, yes i have many other games with launchers! amazing.
I have played this game for 9 years .. and its been pretty plain sailing, until somewhere recently in the last major launcher update something went wrong .. and nearly every pathetic update ends 10% into download with error .. repair fails .. reporting error fails vast threads with 3k veiws ignored .. while a player submits each new 30mb update in a link so people who have this launcher issue can carry on playing without re-installing ..
Anyway I digress, If you don't what you're talking about go away don't troll new players who have issues.
And if you're and ISD ''volunteer'' Delete the trolls and don't troll yourself. |

UPDATED. SOLVED BY ME.
OK, so, after this few days of frustration. I saw that eve had put out a another installer file, the little one. It had a different number on it. So I'm thinking yay, they did something it might work. Alas, no, still didn't help me, but it got me thinking. Why does everything else work, why does some of the eve website work, but yet it wont let me download those files. So, I let the windows thing diagnose my connection, thinking hey it cant hurt, maybe it will say something useful. Well it said, two things were off or not doing what they were supposed to. I ran it again, it fixed one, but the other it couldn't.
So ... here is the kicker, and hopefully any of you who are having this problem can go check. Something changed my settings. Something turned proxy on, and the problem, was port 21320. So here are the three things or possibilities....
1) eve doesn't like anything going thru that port, so it wont work, Or there patch did something. I don't know.
2) if you use spy-bot, and use its proxy settings, good for somethings, but apparently not eve. Which I find funny, since everything else on my computer works.
3) Firefox did it. from some stuff I read, Firefox was reporting weird things about proxy servers.
So check your internet settings, check Firefox settings, and check spy-bot settings for proxy being on. Turn them all off, make sure it says automatically find your settings. And vollia ! my world is right again, first right off, I was able to download the files, two it all worked and installed, and the icon went on my desktop. Then, even though it never worked and still doesn't. The box should say, run eve, checked, and clear downloaded crap, check. Again, clicked yes, nothing happened. Eve needs to work on that.... Anyhow, double clicked the icon on the desktop, launcher came up, and BAM the bottom bar started doing its thing. Got done, and I was able to log into eve again. Not sure why the tutorial is coming up on my main account like I'm new again or something, but hey at least it works now.
Hope that helps other people with their problem.

My MUM: Ricehouse! I didn't do anything to my computer.... but it works funny
Me: What error message do you get?
My MUM: I don't get an error message... but I know you messed it up the last time you were over at the house! And whatever the problem is, it is your fault!
Me: Mum, I haven't been over to your house for at least a month. Anyways, let's try to recreate the problem and see what happens. Click "Start", then click "Programs"....
My MUM: Clicky, clicky, clicky... too many clickys...
Me: Mum, what are you doing?!
My MUM: I'm doing what you told me and then I got distracted by some blinky thingy.
Me: Stop doing extracurricular stuff and only the stuff I tell you...
My MUM: OK... Clicky, clicky, right-clicky...
Me: Mum!!! Stop clicking!!
My MUM: My computer broke! And I get no error message. It just broke.
Me: Is there a box that has words on it?
My MUM: Yes!
Me: What does it say?
My MUM: It says, error... then a bunch of meaningless dribble that I can't understand!
Me: Mum!! That's an error message! Write it all down you bleeping... Mum!
My MUM: OK, but I don't think it will help... It's got words and numbers and stuff.
Me: Mum, just write it down and then repeat all that gibberish to me.
My MUM: Gibberish, Gibberish, Gibberish, numbers, numbers Gibberish...
Me: * type the stuff into Google and whoola! Problem identified...
A few hours of talking to Mum on how to fix the problem... and the problem is solved!
Mum apologies... then calls me up a few days later with a new problem, often times it involves her deleting files she has no business deleting. But the conversation is always the same.
However, the "Something turned the Proxy on" made me chuckle and instantly got me thinking of Mum. :-) |

Not sure if your trying to say I did it? But I didn't. I never mess with any of that, since back in the day with my first computer, my friend, a computer person said, leave that area alone. Let the computer automatically do its thing. It will set it up, once it see's it, etc. I have no reason to be fooling around in the proxy section. I just find that odd, as other people have reported, settings being changed, and it wasn't done by us who own the computer. As in the actual computer setting for the internet. Now for spy bot, you click its box, thinking oh ya, this will be safer, it changes what it needs to. I honestly cant say on the day of the last patch, I was going hmm lets click this and see, and when I have used spy-bot a long time, and never messed with that part. Either way hope that info's others.
