The Powder Toy

Error 612 SSL on Windows 10

  • AdotT     14th Aug 2020 Member 0 Permalink

    I can access https://powdertoy.co.uk/ but Powder.exe (0.95) on my Windows machine can not download any saves from the galley. Reinstalling, clearing DNS, and clearing registry doesn't help. How to fix it?

    btw The Powder Toy on my Linux machine doesn't have this issue, but all of my Windows machines have.

    See this.

    stderr is about 20 lines of "schannel: next InitializeSecurityContext failed: Unknown error (0x80092013) - The revocation function was unable to check revocation because the revocation server was offline."

    stdout.log is a blank file

    You're the first one to have provided us with useful info regarding random 612 errors on Windows, thanks for that. This has been addressed in snapshot 200; could you test it for us?

    Thanks for helping!
    I have found a way to solve it.
    I captured packages sent by TPT and found that the problematic part is static.powdertoy.co.uk. By adding 92.222.213.189 static.powdertoy.co.uk to hosts file on Windows machine all 612 errors no longer appear.
    The strange part is that all of my computers are using google DNS and only windows machine got this problem.

    That's cool, though I'd still like to know whether our fix works even if you don't apply yours. We can't ask people to change their hosts file.

     I just tried snapshot 200 on another windows computer without hosts file modification. It works!

    That's great, thank you for taking the time to test it. One more thing I'd like to know is whether the current stable 95.0 used to produce 612 errors on that other computer. I hope you understand the methodology here :P
