Archisteamfarm: Connection problems

[Maniaco-C]

Hello. I've downloaded and configured ASF 1.2.4 for the first time. And it always disconnects without asking guard code or anything. The log looks like this:

I've read all the instructions here and checked everything with no result. Also tried to run it on two different PCs and different accounts with 2FA disabled.
But when i've downloaded the older versions, i've found that 1.0.0 works fine. And it's the latest release that doesn't disconnect me. Maybe somebody knows, what could be the problem? I have Windows7 and no firewall installed.

I can only suggest installing/updating to latest .NET framework. I'm not able to guess what might be wrong considering I can't reproduce it.

Hm, strange, at least I reproduced this problem. I'm not yet sure if it's Volvo fuckup like usual, or they changed something that broke it.

[JustArchi]

ArchiBoT can't connect either, Valve broke something for sure.

[JustArchi]

It's not a problem on your end, but it's Volvo like usual.

Bot connected after many failed attempts, I'd suggest just to wait patiently. If it's intended, SK2 guys should release a new version sooner or later and ASF will follow with an update fixing that issue. If it's temporary and accidental, Valve should fix it sooner or later.

Nothing to be done from my side.

And it's not ASF-specific issue, everything that is based on SK2 gets similar problems - https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamBot/comments/3zsht8/steambots_taking_forever_to_log_in/

I'm leaving issue open, so other people can see.

Thanks for the answer.

[JustArchi]

This should be resolved sooner or later, you just have a real bad luck that it happened to you when you configured ASF for the first time :cry:

[JustArchi]

I added a workaround in V1.3, it should be fixed now. Thanks for report.

Found a temporary solution for it:
Every time before starting ASF delete everything except .json files from config folder and start ASF. It would ask for your Auth code and start farming. You have to do this every time you start it or else you'll get stuck in the loop.Hope it helps

[JustArchi]

This has absolutely NOTHING to do with the issue that is 2 years old. Moreover, ASF databases have nothing to do with you being capable of connecting to Steam servers, because login keys are not even used before establishing the connection.

I'm having this problem right now with latest version...Sorry didn't noticed the dates..And about DB's that's only way its working for me
