The "Can't Connect" issue is addressed in GM9's ever so helpful FAQ, but I'll re-post the fix here:



Quote:
Can't Connect! Please check your internet connection settings and try again later.
This usually means that the auto-updater is blocked by your firewall - you need to make sure that the updater (or java if you start the .jar directly) has access to http://updater.pala.de:443.


If that does not help, restarting your network router is a good idea.

If you still have issues, note that some users have trouble resolving the domain name above due to a partly broken windows installation. If you have that problem - easily tested by unsuccessfully pointing your browser to the above address - you can use the following workaround (as an alternative to reinstalling Windows):

Go to %windir%\system32\drivers\etc
Open the file "hosts" in notepad and add the following line at the bottom of it:

85.214.17.144 updater.pala.de



Make sure the file is not set to read-only (right click, file properties). Should you not have a hosts file (which would be strange) then just create one with notepad and paste that line into it. Make sure it is just called hosts, not hosts.txt or something like that. But you really should have one...

You may need to restart windows for this to take effect, but then the updater will be able to connect. If the IP of the updater ever changes you will need to manually change this again.

Hi All

Just having some problems with the updater 1.09. Having just uninstalled the earlier version and tried to manually install the new version as the system just keeps giving me a proxy connection option. Stating Can't Connect. Can anyone help??? There must be someone out there that has had this error.

p.s. I have all other internet connections working and none need a proxy...

Help!

I absolutely love this UI! However, the raid and group window's still only use my T7 warden spells. I have found an updated raid window, but have not been able to find the updated group window?

Is there a reason why it's not auto updating? And if anyone has the updated group window... I would love the link!

Thanks.

UAC is disabled.

Hi, I upgraded to the zipfile version of profit - which loaded and worked but was incompatible with GU40. I then downloaded the auto-update version, deleted the .xml files it said to delete and now nothing at all is working

Any ideas?

And yes the whole UI is Profit, clean install since expansion.

Having problems with 2 featured autoupdate mod programs from eq2interface.com. Both EQ2Maps and ProfitUI updater are not able to connect for updates. EQ2Maps gives me a typical IE page cannot be displayed message within the window, and the ProfitUI Update says it cannot connect and asks me if I want to change my Proxy settings.

Bandwidth issue maybe?

EDIT - EQ2Map Updater now working, ProfitUI Updater still not working
