keybounce Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 For about 4 or 5 days, we've been unable to get a server list from Mumble.The error message is: [11:49 AM] Mumble failed to retrieve version information from the central server.Mumble 1.2.3 on Mac OS 10.7 (me) (I thought I had 123a, but about says just 123)Mumble 1.2.3a on Windows (not sure which version) (friend) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators kissaki Posted July 17, 2012 Administrators Share Posted July 17, 2012 Who is “we”?Try pinging, and then accessing (via HTTP, webbrowser) mumble.info and then mumble.hive.no.Do they work? Are you redirected to mumble.sourceforge.net (in the HTTP case)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keybounce Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 So it turned out to be that on Mumble preferences, Network tab, Proxy type (a pull-down) had been changed from direct to Socks 5, but no data had been entered. The error message was not clear enough to explain that Mumble was looking for a proxy server.No data entered. No host name, etc.How did this happen? It turns out that if I'm using mouse scroll to move down the page -- the whole preference page does not fit on-screen at once -- as soon as the drop-down bar is moved to the mouse pointer, the drop-down selector will scroll.In other words, attempting to move down the preferences, without actually changing anything, results in a "mouse-by" ("drive-by") alteration of the settings without warning or error checking.

Administrators kissaki Posted July 22, 2012 Administrators Share Posted July 22, 2012 Good to hear you found the problem, and even the reason for it!You may want to submit a feature request,that* proxy without valid settings gives some feedback on that settings page, if possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
