First of all: it turns out the observed high CPU load is caused by one of our own processes, after all, so sorry for that red herring. I'm still kinda curious to learn if the number of AsyncHttpClient threads in a WAITING state is at all expected or normal, though. As for some background on what we'...

We're running SFS2X 2.8.2, using websockets to connect from an HTML5 client. We're running into a strange performance issue where at some point, server cpu load goes through the roof, and stays there, even when no actual users have been logged in anymore for several hours and the server should be pr...

Ok, we've finally managed to figure out the issue, and I'm happy to report it's not a problem in Smartfox or in the C# client API. What it actually was, was a rather freakish problem with the Unity password field that we were using. For some reason, it gave us the password display string ('*****') a...

I am storing the passwords encrypted, but I decrypt them to plain text before using the checkPassword method. As for the versions - we are currently looking into upgrading to the latest/greatest, let me investigate if the problem persists after that and I'll get back to you, hopefully with the news ...

I am experiencing difficulties with logging in to Smartfox from a Unity client using the .Net client API. The client does a normal LoginRequest, setting the username, password, and zone name strings. The server has a custom login handler that uses getApi().checkSecurePassword((ISession) event.getPar...

Thanks lapo, that confirms the conclusion I had already drawn myself. I have started a simple AES crypto implementation for storage (and will probably need something similar for transmitting the password in user account creation).

I'm having trouble figuring out how Smartfox 2x encrypts passwords sent along with a login request. I assumed it used a simple MD5 hash, but something else seems to be going on, as I get a different hash on the server side for different login attempts with the same password - which seems to indicate...

A non typed List in Java (or List<?>) correspond to the equivalent in C#. The problem is that we don't know what the equivalent is :) C# does not have a non-typed List class, and the wildcard approach does not work in C# either due to the stricter nature of its generics mechanism. The only problem ...

Unfortunately, this doesn't help, because we are using class serialization as described here . We could probably switch to using SFSArray directly instead, but this requires a lot of rewriting on the server side of things, because it does not seem possible to use SFSObject/SFSArray as property datat...

Thanks for your comments, that makes sense. I of course already use __lib__ for part of our code (the classes we use for object serialization). But I had not really considered that it might be better to put other dependencies there as well. Will rethink my deployment model

Ok, apparently it has to do with how I produce my extension jar file. Until recently, I produced separate jar files for the extension itself and for several dependencies it needs, and copied all jar files to the extensions/<MyExtension> directory. However, I recently changed my build process to crea...

Unfortunately, trying to create a new zone seems impossible: it also makes the tool hang in exactly the same way. I should point out, by the way, that I am experiencing this problem on two separate installations of Smartfox. Both are running a patched SFS2X (2.1.0, with admin tool version 1.2.0). up...

Just tried in Google Chrome, same problem unfortunately...

I am experiencing a problem with the remote admin tool. For some reason it has suddenly started to hang when I try to open a zone configuration. I can open the Zone Configurator itself, but when I doubleclick a zone (or use the edit button at the bottom) to open a specific zone for config, I get the...

Brief followup: we have ran a few tests using Lists instead of arrays, but still are having problems getting a C# client to serialize objects. The object I have in Java looks like this (we're experimenting on a different property, so it's string-typed list, not Double as above): public class Group {...
