More festival experience sharing happening tonight at the chatroom on the weekly chat. A warm welcome again to all the new chatters who have checked it out during the last week

I tried getting into the chat room, but it says "several Java machines running in the same process caused an error."

What?

I'm technologically challenged.

Means you need to lay off the lattés!

Actually, it's giving me some issues as well...

Connecting...
Logging in...
-sittard.nl.umbranet.org- *** Looking up your hostname...
-sittard.nl.umbranet.org- *** Found your hostname, cached
-sittard.nl.umbranet.org- *** Checking Ident

...and then nothing. But I've never tried to log in with this computer before so maybe it's my problem.
Mac OS X using Firefox ...

Have you been in the chat before and not had this issue? Updated your java recently?

Not sure if any of this will help as it seems to be a problem seen by many and solved differently by most with others never finding a solution. Some solutions are a bit more technical but try this thread

http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=697370&start=120&tstart=0

it goes to the page where someone posted a comprehensive list of various methods to solve this problem.

First time trying to use the chat. Java was updated recently, actually. I'll look at the link. Thanks.

You can also use IRC:

address: irc.umbranet.org
port: 6667 (default)
channel: #ppusa

I use mIRC for my IRC client, but there are several you can choose from.

I prefer mIRC over Java. Both work, but I think a true IRC client is more stable.

Looks like both Orbweaver and Tammy got it working eventually Welcome Orbweaver, hope to see you around again too!

 

[OrbWeaver]

I did, thanks.

I tried the IRC route, but that didn't work. So I looked for updates for Java again. I found a big update, implemented it, and tah-dah! I can now access the chat.

 

[Pellaz]

Can't go wrong with mIrc. It's a program even I could consider someday registering.

Ahhh, why bother? I've been freeloading now for over fifteen years!

 

[shaq]

screw mIRC, xChat ftw

Good old Sunday chat time, some people are on already so you all follow their excellent example by coming in

 

[AMBR]

Sorry, was driving home from Worcester, MA and the Nightwish show. Was a great time, but I really need to get back in the chat. Hopefully, next week.

 

[Yippee38]

All you chat people rock. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time.

 

[sh0kr0k]

That was awesome last night! I think I'll have to make the Sunday chat a regular item on my "To Do" list!

Yes, you better! And since it's Sunday now others should join in too!

Hah, I beat that goddamned Finn to it this time!
