version not matching server's version

[Mikroo]

<p>i updated the game yesterday (31 march) and could log on without any problem, but as of today (and it's no april fools joke) i get  "Login rejected; your version does not match the server's version, please rerun the patcher" messages everytime i try to log on. I changed the Everquest2.exe into Everquest2exe.old, so the patcher would download the file again, but i didn't work...</p><p>I'd appreciate any advice, thank you.. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>I have same problem on Runnyeye EU for the last two hours. </p>

[Levatino]

<p>same here, it checks a couple of files then doesn't start updating.. it just says complete.</p><p>then press play to go to character select, and get the message</p>

[Mikroo]

<p>yup, i'm also on Runnyeye...i also have a char on Splitpaw, and there it's the same, can't get to char selection, nor log on directly to any char by selecting it from the patcher.</p>

[Aurela]

<p>Same for me - same error and unable to get into the game.</p>

[Dartanianx]

<p>Same here. Looks like they did the same thing as before and sent wrong files to the EU servers.</p>

[ladyannabell]

<p>same her for me on splitpaw server, anyone knows how to contact the support?</p><p>e-mail support and chat support tabs both have a webage error if you click them</p>

[markwedley]

<p>I have thre same problem can not enter the game and can not get support via email or chat as the pages are down.</p><p>Anyone have any clues as how to force the patcher to update itself?</p>

[Eth]

<p>Also having the same problem. </p>

[ladyannabell]

<p>login to the english US server and getting a verry big download there, hope it solves the problem. worth a try to me</p><p>After doing that and going back to english EU server there the big dowload started also.</p>

[Peedlepunk]

<p>I'm also having the same problem. Even doing a full file scan doesn't help. I'm going to try ladyannabell's suggestion with the US server.</p>

[Eth]

<p>How does one connect to the US server? I can't even get to the point where I chose the server list.</p>

[markwedley]

<p>Top right corner of the window you put the password in, there is a drop down list to choose servers.</p><p>Patching mine atm on Ladys suggestion</p>

[ladyannabell]

<p>on your first login screen where you can agree or decline, there is a dropdown box on top right where you can set the server.</p><p>european server is uploading patch also now so maybe give that a try again, good luck</p>

[Vraeth]

<p>dont bother using the us files, the eu patcher will revert them back to the state prior patching to us version</p>

[Veskandar]

<p>And it will take twice as long to do that as it takes to download the pach</p>

[markwedley]

<p>Managed to get into US servers trying to log into EU servers now</p>

[ladyannabell]

<p>yep think thats what is happening still got the version mismatch error <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

[markwedley]

<p>I guess we just wait for them to fix the patch then.</p>

[Peedlepunk]

<p>You tried it?</p>

[Eliesh]

<p>I patched last night, and this morning I'm having the same issue... Runnyeye EU server. Anyone got any hint or attention from support? <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" /></p>

[Ageegard]

[Ageegard]

Yep <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> - Looks like they swapped the plugs, Unplugged splitpaw and pluged patcher into the power point. SPLITPAW - OFFLINE SERVER (DOWN) <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> AG

[Ageegard]

[UnderToad]

<p>Runnyeye's <em>still</em> down?</p><p>I swear there's some sort of dog-years coversion going on with the downtime estimates.</p>

[ladyannabell]

<p>according to the schedule splitpaw should be up again at 9:AM GMT, its now 14:00 GMT and its still wont let us play</p>
