Login Timeout & Error 301

OccultOverload · May 2014

Whenever I attempt to login to the game I receive the Login Error: Login Timeout. When I attempt a second time I usually get error 301. I sent a ticket to ZOS and they sent the standard make sure your fire wall isnt blocking the game, turn off start up apps, repair etc.... Nothing works. I even went so far as to do a clean install of the game. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Signed,
SO FRUSTRATED!

Edit: - Added screenshots of errors.

Same problem here, as of today I can't login anymore. It keeps "logging in" until "login timeout" appears.

"The North American megaserver will be taken offline for maintenance at 8:00AM EDT / 01:00PM BST." They will release a patch what should solve this problem. Good luck!

It's the EU server for me, so that won't help.

netsike · June 2014

EU gets the fix tomorrow. I had the same problem, couldn't play for 3 days = unsub.

EU is getting patch 1.1.3 tomorrow which fixes problem. The problem started on 22nd May and has progressively involved more players.

If you have add ons, make sure esohead isnt on of them. I removed that and all my log in problems were gone.

As in the other thread, your solution is not for this problem. Error 301 crashes the login process.

GossiTheDog · June 2014

Yes, esohead = unknown error, not this problem.

if you know you are up to date, try just starting with the exe. I think it is the launcher that is giving the trouble. Though you will need the launcher to patch at some days

Lots of "solutions" have come by, and the only one that works (for some, myself excluded) is to set the Windows compatibilty mode to Vista SP1 and and 'Run as administrator'. For all the others, nothing else than to wait for a server restart, which is today for NA players and tomorrow for EU players.

All I know is that after this month expires for me "in 3 days" I won't renew. Sub already canceled. I had tons of issues, server crashing, 301 errors, etc etc.

I enjoyed the game, but who ever handles this server should get shot in the balls with bullets made out of salt just to make it slightly more painful. I have been gaming over a decade, I have played tons of mmorpgs, and so far I never seen such rookie handled servers. Played tons of alphas, betas, early access and this is first time that I didn't get to enjoy game fully.

Out of 30 days of playtime I could play it for 10, and when I ask them for refund 10 days I get most ignorant response on earth. Which literally made me unsub and also I sent out ticket regarding that lovely GM to his admin team. In hope he will get booted due his ignorance and aroggance.

-Just my 2 cents.

After the EU patch I have no more login problems. So it was a server side issue.
I have unsubbed as well.

Yeah a server side issue that they knew enough about to fix but carried on sending out standard (check firewall, run repair, change your settings) responses to people with the problem. This game has the worst CS I have seen in 30 years of gaming.

Error 301

Hi, i have found the problem and its from their server. My

account or character is stuck on your server. I have try a

friend account on my computer and the game works. I have

tried my account on his computer and it didnt works. So

the problem came from the character or the account from

YOUR COMPANY who is stuck. You should be able to resolve

it this way. It wasn any of the problem you said on email.

I took me 3 days of works of trying everything. 40 gig of

download and all that. I should be reward for all of that

time spent on trying and didnt play. And the problem for

now is not resolve. You should be able from your company

to reset it or someting like that.

still error 301, tried everything to resolve as your

support mail but nothing work. List of thing done :

Spent a lot of hours to try all those things
Reinstall the entire Game 40gig more
Cancel subscription and recreate a new subscription
Accept right and policy in the account menu
Close firewall and antivirus (windows and bitdefender)
Repair installation
Delete addons repertory
delete documents folder (elder scroll)
delete programdata folder
reboot modem
deactivate and activate network card
Deactivate all things in msconfig at boot
add ip in the host file
Open ports
TCP / UDP 24100 à 24131
TCP / UDP 24500 à 24507
Start in windows vista sp1 compatibility
Starts as admin
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns

We need compensation for your trouble bethesda its not our

computor the problem but your server here are the FACT

Ever since last night (6/3), I have been getting error 301 followed by login timeouts with my account. Today I was still getting the same error. So, for fun I tried logging in with my husbands account on my computer, and it logs in just fine. Grr.... Any ideas???
