I suppose you know it, but just in case... Mantis (http://lore.maxgaming.net/~scp/mantis) is down. I get a "404 Not Found" browser error.
What do you do if you create an account but never get the password?Shoot, that stinks. I've got 2 suggestions for you (follow step #2 1st):
Are you guys able to even GET to http://scp.indiegames.us/mantis/ this week? It keeps timing out for me. :sigh:Odd, I've been using it all week, and it's still coming up for me now. Strange that you would have such a prolonged problem with just one site, and that I haven't the same experience.
Shoot, that stinks. I've got 2 suggestions for you (follow step #2 1st):
1. Pick another email account of yours - at a different email domain. Add the following two email addresses to your sender safe-list / address book:
2. Try to register *sigh* another account, using the different email address that you used in step 1.
You can change your email address to your prefered email address once you acquire your password and log in.
I hope this helps!
Odd, I've been using it all week, and it's still coming up for me now. Strange that you would have such a prolonged problem with just one site, and that I haven't the same experience.Quite odd indeed. Looks like I can't even access the main scp.indiegames.us site, or even ping it. It was working fine last week, and I've now tested it on multiple browsers and multiple machines (in my house, so same ISP... wonder if they're doing something strange like blocking it?) :confused:

That's what my ping does. If you run a trace-route, which hop times out?
I double checked and spam filtering is disabled on my both of my domains. Unless the server has old DNS info (moved to new server on Monday) I should be getting them. Never had a problem getting email from any other site. Oh and before you ask no I don't have any other email accounts.Fubar, do you run the mail test at http://www.dnsreport.com/ to make sure all is good with your mail server(s)? If all else fails, you could use a temp email address from a service like mailinator.com, then change the email address on your profile once you've logged in.
Step 1: Try connecting to the following mailserver:
fubar.org. - 209.240.24.56
Step 2: If still unsuccessful, queue the E-mail for later delivery.
Trying to connect to all mailservers:
fubar.org. - 209.240.24.56 [Successful connect: Got a good response [250 Accepted]] (took 3.0 seconds)
Here's a good one. Got the registration email from scpadmin for the board but mantis signup still doesn't come through.Interesting. What are the from and return-path email addresses in that message? What was the sending server's ip address? Maybe mantis is using a different setup, and should be using the same..
Yep, same IP. Tracert fails at first hop. w7f? I'll go give it a try tomorrow from a different location.Any luck Backslash?
Here's the from and return path from lines from the SCP registration email.Fubar, I think that you found the critical difference here!
From: scpadmin <[email protected]>
Return-path: <[email protected]>

Ok this might sound like a crazy question but what bugs do I report using Mantis? Do I need to be running a certain version?Report any that you find (but please search first to make sure that the same bug doesn't already exist as open/closed/resolved). As far as builds go, if you are running an old build then try a newer build before filing the bug just to make sure that we haven't already fixed it (not all fixed bugs are in Mantis). Other than that just make sure that you list which build you are having the problem with when you file the bug.
Luck, sort of... in that I got it to work at a friend's house in the same town but I suspect he's on a different ISP, and it still wouldn't work for me yesterday.Yep, same IP. Tracert fails at first hop. w7f? I'll go give it a try tomorrow from a different location.Any luck Backslash?
And suddenly it works for me again now. Weird. After over a week of not. I'd guess it's my ISP doing something odd with DNS stuff this week, but who knows. Ah well, the important thing is I'm back in :)It comes and goes for me too btw. The funny thing is that sometimes I can get to Mantis, but not the general SCP site, which is on the same server with the same address. :wtf:
I changed my account prefs to use a game-warden.com e-mail (in part so that I could actually diagnose a problem if there was one) and it works fine there.taylor, do the problems that I/FUBAR mentioned in the post above (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,34786.msg870842.html#msg870842) help at all in pointing out some problems with mantis emails? Unfortunately, some issues are likely to require indiegames.us to make fixes.
Any possibility of getting a standalone catagory added to the catagory list on Mantis? I started reporting some of the bugs I know of and they really don't fall under any of the other catagories.Hmm, well for now I use category "multiplayer" for both in-game multi and standalone issues.

Unfortunately, some issues are likely to require indiegames.us to make fixes.I think that [1] and [2] are the reasons that my ISP is rejecting the mails. Like you say though, that's something that has to be fixed on the sending server's side. It's something that just needs to be fixed since those things make the e-mails qualify is false/rogue rather than a valid e-mail. Any mail server which requires a valid sender (which means reachable host, valid name lookup, MX entry) before accepting the message will just end up rejecting all such mail. If someone were to look at the maillog on the server then I'm sure that it would have more than a few reject messages in the mail server traffic.
Yeah, just file it under multiplayer, since that is the appropriate category for standalone server bugs.Any possibility of getting a standalone catagory added to the catagory list on Mantis?

// launch asteroidI'm experiencing this as well, but it's with the same bug, one with a particularly long note history. Could it throw up and lose the entire body of the message if it's too big maybe?
Either way, it's probably due to the fact that our Mantis version is pretty old and it's likely they've fixed these issues in newer versions. I can't blame anyone for not wanting to risk breaking it to update it though.
I'm getting the same problem as Angelus and Echelon9: No luck registering an account even with multiple addresses. I'm trying to contribute, darnit! :D
Whenever I try to create a new account I never receive a confirmation email. It appears as though a lot of people have this problem.
