We are aware of three new issues affecting a number of MSN users:

  1. Able to log in to Palringo but unable to get an MSN account online. Error like 'Authentification issue'.
  2. Able to get Online on MSN but get disconnected shortly after. Error like 'alarm caught ...'.
  3. and finally the most common one - able to get online on MSN but your contacts don't appear.

 

We have added some new server hardware and it has had a few teething problems. Suffice to say we are investigating and hope to have everything back up shortly.

 

If you have an issue not listed above that you think may be related post details below.

We have fixed ii. and iii. now. The problem was related to MSN accounts with Yahoo contacts added to them. We will be deploying the fix to the server soon so let us know if these two issues are still present and in the mean time we will continue to investigate i.


UPDATE: The fix for ii. and iii. has now been deployed. Let us know if you still get these issues.

 

UPDATE 2: There appears to be a new problems - lets call it ...

iv. MSN connects and you can see your contacts but they are all offline.

We will look into this imediately.

 

UPDATE 3: We have rolled back to a previous version of MSN on our servers so you should find everything is working again now. It seems there is still a little work to be done before we release our 'improvements'.

We are still looking into i. so it's hard to say exactly when we will be able to resolve it. We will post any updates above.
