Vouchy vouch vouch. AH history frozen on a few servers for a few days now.

Economy died - tariffs brought in on AH sales now

Pretty sure I know what's up; looking into it.

Pretty sure I have the answer; if someone from one of the affected servers (except for Phoenix and Leviathan) has Wireshark installed and wants to help me confirm something, please hit me up on Discord real quick. Thanks!

Scragg is putting the fix into production.

tl,dr on the problem: Square gave some AH servers new IP blocks during the last maintenance. I found the new ones (with a helping hand from Nifim) and the config is updated. Sales should catch up at some point shortly; if you see WRONG data somewhere please find me IMMEDIATELY.

Thank you!

Does SE block AH IPs because they cost them money or something?

Sometimes (rarely!) SE moves hardware around during a maintenance and the AH server for a given world changes IP address. When I said "AH servers" above, I meant on their side, not ours.

Anyway, when that happens, I have to go find the new ones and point the scraper at their new homes.

well that's really interesting, probably had something todo with them taking the limbus server down.

SEs servers get their addresses via DHCP

Log off from Asura for maintenance
Next thing you know youre on Leviathan

Thanks for picking this up!
