  • Error message

    From Mega Man@21:1/206 to All on Tue Feb 9 12:07:44 2021
    I'm getting an error on the server now. It says Failed to create node: 740.
    Any idea what's causing this?

    do you know which server?

    I wonder if it's to do with permissions to bind to a port?

    Hmm with windows this usually would not be the cause.

    Perhaps it's more around how many nodes you have set for max allowed per
    server vs the max bbs nodes you have set?

    When I try and call into my system It disconnects right away. Whe I look at the terminal server screen it say "Failed to Create Node: 740" any idea why it's doing that, and how to fix it. I have not made any changes.

    I'd run nodespy and see if other nodes are active, there's a setting that lets you set the max number of nodes mystic can create, nodes can be used for incoming Telnet, BinkP, SSH etc.. sessions.. it may be you have things set up where you are asking for Mystic to run with X nodes used and only Y nodes available... but this is just a hunch :)

    I gave that a try, it didn't help. I ended up completely re-bulding my system, so it's fine now.

    good to hear, I have also sent you an email asking for some further info so I can progress that reset you were wanting at Agency.
