Update your Master Server Addresses

in Masters & Auth - posted Friday, 03 December 2010 by RaideR

EDIT: The people hosting our .net DNS have updated the records to fix this. Please wait 12 hours before asking for support. After this time, the problem will be fixed. 02:30 GMT 5th December 2010, RaideR

IMPORTANT! You must update this to fix the server list. If you don't do this you will not be able to get a server list from the master servers!

Players

Please change your cl_master value by entering the following line into your console.

cl_master "master.urbanterror.info"

If you want to set this in a config you can use the following.

set cl_master "master.urbanterror.info"

Custom builds can not at this time be fixed by the above method. The maintainers for these builds will need to fix the error. They have been emailed!

Server Admins

[edit]Above has been fixed! Please check the forums for details.

Please edit your server configs to change the master servers that your server sends heartbeats to.

set sv_master2 "master.urbanterror.info"
set sv_master3 "master2.urbanterror.info"

After this is set you must restart your server. Quit it and start it up again. The changes are only done on a FULL restart of the server process.

Why?

Due to a change in our network setup the .net DNS has broken and we are unable to fix this. Until everyone does this the ingame browser is effectivly broken.

Thanks!

Re-start your game servers!

in Masters & Auth - posted Thursday, 05 June 2008 by Frozen Sand

The machine running the website, forums and master server has been re-installed. Also, the ip-address of the master server has changed. If your game server hasn't been restarted yet, it still uses the old ip-address, which causes your game server not to show up in the master server list.

The new ip-address of the master server should now resolve correctly. Game servers need a restart before they will resolve the new ip. Please restart your game server to get it to show up in the master server list again.

We would like to thank Ghozt for his hard work on all this!

Possible issues with Urban Terror master servers

in Masters & Auth - posted Friday, 22 June 2007 by Frozen Sand

For clients:

There's a chance you might run into problems with the ingame server browser. You might not be able to contact it at all, or it may return too little servers. The reason is that the Urban Terror master servers have changed IP, but because of ISP's DNS caches, you might get redirected to the wrong IP. Also, because not all servers are correctly reporting to the new IP yet, it might show less servers. The issue should resolve itself in a few days, but you can also use the following temporary fix:

In the Urban Terror menu, open the console, using ~. Type /cl_master master.quake3arena.com . This master server is slower, but should work correctly. After a few days, you can set it back using /cl_master master.urbanterror.net .

For servers:

Server admins are advised to restart their gameserver(s), so that their server will start heartbeating to the master server again. It should resolve master.urbanterror.net to 74.x.x.x, it shows this in the console/log after restarting the server.

Edit:

There's now 175 servers reporting again, there used to be a little over 200, so there's still a few servers that need to restart, but it's pretty much okay now.
