Recent problem of access to Ryzom services

Dear players,

Our game server and several other Ryzom services (billing service, test server, forum, API...) encountered an access problem because of too many connections opened on the database between April 12 around 1:00 UTC (3:00 CEST) and April 13 around 17:45 UTC (19:45 CEST), preventing any new connection on these services.

The reason for this large number of connections has not yet been identified: attack, looping script, service bug? We're investigating!

Most services are now restored, but some will only be reactivated later (like API, achievements...)

We will keep you informed as soon as we have news and apologize for the inconvenience.

Ryzom Team
