CURL errors

Bug Reports Engine Bugs
#1

The last few weeks ROBLOX has switched over to a new CURL system that is causing serious problems . Basically the new system is down a lot. So services that we need to actually communicate with ROBLOX regarding the Group Rank or something like is the Player Following the other Player isn’t possible at the moment. Since the services is down a lot.

Services that are affected :

  • MarketplaceService
  • GroupService
  • ‘Social’ service (Used to check or a User is a friend of a other Player, or to check or the Player is following our other Player)
  • AssetProvider. (ROBLOX assets are really slow loading, or don’t load at all !)

I would like to get an response from the ROBLOX team regarding the changes that they did to these services, and ask them to fix the services, so that we can actually use them in our games again.

[b] Before you start.

  1. Nothing blocks ROBLOX or his subdomains on my network.
  2. I got a really great internet connection
  3. I got a new MSI Gaming laptop.

Yeah assets don’t load for me at all anymore

Are you seeing errors in console? What platform are you on? What behavior do you observe? You have to be specific when reporting bugs.

#5

Platform : Windows 8.1 and Windows 7
What I observe :
This bug is something that happens on occasion. When you join a server (on certain times it seems that the Servers that are connected to GroupService and the AssetProvider aren’t responding.) Like I said, we don’t have the behavoir now. But it seems to be behavoir that happens sometimes (and it holds on for a few hours)

Behavoir :

  • AssetProvider does load a few assets, the other assets (Images, Sounds and Textures of ROBLOX meshes) simple don’t load, since you first get a warning that it has been timeout, and after that it basically errors and give-up
  • GroupService (Or any API that needs to fetch information from the ROBLOX website) doesn’t respond and just errors straight away.
