Curl error: could not connect to server

Thanks for the help I'm sure you guys are just as frustrated as everyone else

 

Ok guys i found out the issue on my end..........
If anyone having problems here has done any port forwarding in the past for other games or applications check and see if some other program in your routers rule list is forwarding to "port 443"

Kag now needs port 443 TCP and UDP forwarded in my routers configuration to work otherwise i get the error

Battlefield 3 in my case had caused the issue as it requires port 443 TCP only to be forwarded......

 

what router do you use aziz? might help others.

 

I have a D-link DI-524 wireless G router ........in my case i needed to change the rule in my "special applications" tab

I would imagine if you don't have a router to check your software firewall also as port 443 may be blocked/ redirected in there as well.

 

where do you find routers rule list

 

if you are connected through a router then here is a start..............

Be very careful about changing settings unless you know what you are doing

 

FLAB's comment could very well be true all I know is as soon as i enabled the BOTH (UDP and TCP) setting for 443 it was like flipping a switch ....there was no delay when pressing the check mark button on the title screen and went straight to the main menu screen and could browse servers etc.....

The only reason i noticed it could have been port 443 was a popup occurred on my laptops software firewall (old symantec personal firewall) asking to allow KAG on port 443 which i clicked yes to and then after it gave a timeout error on KAGs return message checked my routers allowed ports and noticed the same port 443 listed under a allow rule for Battlefield 3 TCP only.

 

So as it happens, I still have this error. I do not use a router so I don't see why that should be an issue. The only firewall I have is Windows Firewall, and from what I can tell all connections are allowed. I even went to the extent of opening the 443 tcp port completely, to no avail. I reinstalled KAG and even turned off my firewall but nothing is changing. I have Avira and Avast as virus protection software, but I don't know anything about their blocking habits.

[Edit] In addition, I have just turned off Avast, Avira, and Windows Firewall. Nothing seems to be changing.

 

Also, the link followed above gives me this info:
{"active": true, "username": "ryguydavis", "banned": false, "role": 0, "gold": false}

 

I do have curl-ca-bundle.crt, and it is 210 kb.

Also, I tried loading KAG on my netbook and got the same result. I don't know much about proxy settings, so I can't say much about that. I know that my school requires we log in to a system called iPrism which they use to 1. Keep all but students and faculty out and 2. Filter what sort of websites we go to.

I was able to play successfully up until the last couple builds, if that is any help.

 

mine messed up too, exactly like that
