I get the following erroe when trying to contact the dice server for forum games
I cant figure it out. I believe I have the latest Java Version
Any ideas? I have also reinstalled the software
Test
Contacting dice.tripleawarclub.org
An error has occured!
Possible reasons the error could have happened:
1: An invalid e-mail address
2: Firewall could be blocking TripleA from connecting to the Dice Server
3: The e-mail address does not exist
4: An unknown error, please see the error console and consult the forums for help

Despite you might have installed the latest Java 8 version (as of now this is Version 8 Update 231 ), your TripleA installation still uses an outdated version to be found here:
c:\program files\common files\i4j_jres\1.8.0_66\
This old version contains outdated security certificates that cause your error.
Now you need to manually remove (delete) the “i4jres” folder containing its subfolder(s).
After that reinstall the latest Java 8 64 bit from
https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
(the offline file is fine).
Some users reported that they needed to reinstall TripleA, too.
You should be fine, then.
Good luck :slightly_smiling_face:
Thanks!
I will try that then
I had this problem too, and that solved it for me. Thanks!
@LotusCaesar Nice, thank you for your feedback.
@Panther Worked for me as well. Thanks a bunch Panther!!!
