Corrupt Hive data? or Something else?

[Soujyo 23]

I'm at my wits end here, I've spent the last 2 weeks trying to fix DayZ since 1.7.2 was launched whenever I join a server (No matter what I've done... and believe me I've done a helluva lot of the suggestions on forums / wikis / googling / etc...) I still have the same error message displayed on ANY server I join. "This server is runing an incorrect version of DayZ and you cannot play, please contact DayZ staff if this is your server....."

I've posted a ticket and had no reply (aside from the auto response indicating the ticket was created) in about 4 days so I'm back to the forums in the mean time to search for some help.

Just to save you some time, the common fixes of reboot, reinstall, re-apply patches, battleye install & directory etc... none of that has solved this issue. Everything I have found on the web is pointing towards corrupt Data in the hive that is possibly causing the problem (as in my character data has become corrupt). I'm not sure how many if any one else is having this issue at the moment 1.7.2.4 has not provided any different results.

I've done a fair bit of footwork trying to figure out the cause of this when my friends are able to play with out issue, and have come across this site http://www.free-game...ide-application in which it lists a few possible reasons.

1. Character corruption

2. Server not being whitelisted/firewall

3. False data being returned

4. Hive being down

My Ticket info:

Playerid: 21830790

Name: Soujyo

It would seem that no matter what I've done I get the same message directly after the loading screen (After waiting for character to create):

- Re-install & update battleye (both in the beta folder as well as the arma 2 directory)

- Re-install & verify Arma 2 & CO from steam with admin rights turned on and launched in a correct order & verified integrity

- Re-installed & tried every beta arma 2 patch with admin rights that coincided with 1.7.1.5 and later (earlier arma 2 beta patches weren't really relevant)

- Re-install DayZ from torrent & six launcher and confirm everything was correctly installed

- Deleted my arma 2 profile in the event data had become corrupt (as some one had posted on the forums)

- Disabled all anti virus & firewalls (none are installed at the moment)

- Used the beta launcher, six launcher, as well as over writing the arma2oa.exe with the one from the beta folder

- Tried connecting to over 80 different servers running many different variants of arma 2 patches but still 1.7.2.3 DayZ

Hi there Soujyo,

Everyone who tries to join our server(US 1372) is getting the same message as well. Our server was running the most current version of the Beta/Hive as of our last test this morning, we all still get the same error. Here's to a quick fix! :beans:

Should be fixed Soujyo.

@indigoblade,

not whitelisted/firewall blocking SQL transactions/not running 1.7.2.4 with 0.7.2 server-side/not running BattlEye.
