Socket close FIX: Login, before selecting character press ESC to get menu, setting, clear cache, restart launcher. May still be disconnects randomly during play.

Able to log in (all my toons) normally on my desktop now. Problem appears to be solved (in this part of the world at least) !
Same here. Logged in on 4 accounts at once, doing PI and whatnot. No issues. On the upside, at least the test server is getting used for onceā¦
was able to get all accounts logged i but missing a bunch of drones that were in my bays when i logged off last night
the game is still lagging pretty bad at this timeā¦
Still canāt even get to the character screen. just gives me the āmaybe youāre not connected to the internet or the server is not running.ā type messageā¦

I STILL can login. I want some refunded time.
Why do you want free stuff if you can still log in?
Make some sense, people!

Wow, seems there was a bunch of shite happening while I was sleeping.
Before attempting to log into the game, Iāll just open up the Launcher, select the āEā icon in the top right corner, select āShared Cacheā and then select āVerify integrity of downloaded files and purge extra filesā.
After thatās done Iāll activate the Launcher and before selecting a character, will access Esc - āReset Settingsā tab - āClear all cache filesā and do the restart.
Hopefully there wonāt be any problems after that.
So the script kiddies just wanna have their own artificially-induced TiDi, am I correct?
Okay, green light! I am back online people! Thanks CCP.
For those whoās still having trouble logging in, all i can say is just be patient. Soon or later things is gonna sort itself out. Hopefully, soon.
It took me some 9 hours after the DDoS attack inorder for me to be able to log back into my toon.

I donāt like watching football
Isnāt there like some religious doctrine for Amarrians that dictates you have to like watching Amarrian football? 
So is the 12 year old script kiddy who did this gonna be named and shamed?
Also is SiSi currently affected by this or is that just me?
@CCP_Explorer Iām back up and running on both my accounts this morning, having submitted tickets on both last night as you requested. Thank you CCP for fixing this problem, which you didnāt cause, and for ignoring all the whiny, self entitled, momās-basement-dwelling little man-children vomiting their unwarranted bile all over this thread while you sorted it all out. Well done !

Iām so glad Iām not sad enough to use a little botnet of Win98 machines against my favourite game servers every time a dev makes a decision I donāt like.

@CCP_Explorer seems thereās issues with the launcher now. Iām experiencing some of the same issues as others in this thread.
Twice within the last hour before DT I got kicked from the game with the dreaded double āSocket Closedā message. After clicking āokā, the launcher went all dark with a picture of a Corpse on it with a message saying something like āSearching for GUIā. Then a pop up message saying something about āSecurity Certā for Eve Online wasnāt recognized. Also another message saying something about the site address not being correct.
I had to go into Launcher settings and click āignore security cert messagesā because those messages just continued to spawn every time I closed that message box.
Anyway, after a while It seemed to work and I was able to log back in for a short time before the same events happened again.
I thought everything would be all fixed by now, guess not. Hopefully everything will be all sorted out when I try to log in and play the game later on.

Dunno about you but everything works just fine for me.
Yeah, everything seemed fine for me too and then those issues happened. Gonna go do something else now, hopefully when I try to play the game later everything will back to normal.
