I have registered the server IP, validated the email address, and received the "Registration Request has Been Approved!" email 24 hours later.

 

But the server still gives this error:

Server is not authorized, requesting authorization again.

Server using MAS authentication, waiting for MAS result

 

Is there something MORE I have to do!?!

 

Thanks!

Firewall?

[NoDoze]

Firewall is off.

Here are a few tips from one of our clients that had similar issues with AA. He was kind enough to share them via his support ticket.

 

1. Ensure game is started in correct path, it will throw errors and not connect if not started while in the win32 directory.

2. Make sure service is set to runas local not TCAGame

3. Server registration can be done with command line switches /AuthServerUserName=XXX /AuthServerPassword=XXX or you can just set them manually in the "Binaries\MASAuthOptions_AAHostAServerConfig0.ini" file (this is what I did, I may change it later but it works)

4. The best way to determine what may be going on is to verify what ports are opened "netstat -ano" I have Grep for Windows on every Windows system I own/use so I do "netstat -ano | grep IPADDRESS". If the game and Teamspeak UDP ports aren't open but the other four are it's usually account permissions, other wise if only two ports are opened (I forget which ones) it's usually a crash due to the command line options or the path.

Hmmm....well, I did the above things and it still says:

Server is not authorized, requesting authorization again.

 

Port is open, no firewall.

I have the auth lines in both the command line and config file.

Service is run as local.

 

I'm puzzled...

Try adding these files to the servers binary folder. The steam download is broken for servers and the Army has not fixed it.

file was too big to upload

[NoDoze]

Thanks for the files!

I uploaded them, restarted the server...server failed.

I uploaded, ran steam update, restarted the server...server failed.

 

Still the same response in the logs with the loop:

 

Log: Data not yet available

ScriptLog: INFORMATION: Server is not authorized, requesting authorization again.

Thanks for the help!

You could try contacting GBGangsta on the AA forums he is the only one dealing with AA3 issues. unless you want to put a full server.log file to look at

[NoDoze]

I asked on the aa3 forums and this was a reply:

Maybe one of the old AA3 server admins can help, we've been on the new version for a while.

 

What is he talking about? I downloaded the files from steam, is that not the way to install the latest files?

 

Thanks

Server says 3.3
