phoenix Iskirra Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 ok i eally dont know where to post this because i couldnt find a help forum. Anyway i cant log in at all as this avatar, i have been trying for the last hour. However i can log in as my alt. This is hapening on both the SL viewer and the Phoenix viewer.

Jennifer Boyle Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 What, exactly, happens when you try to logon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix Iskirra Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Hey there, the blue bar just doesnt progress. It says checking cache then it just stops, and stays stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Ceawlin Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Then the first thing that I would do would be to clear my cache to see if that fixes it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffin Ceawlin Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 At login screen, before signing in, go to Preferences (Edit/Preferences), Network tab. ETA: In Viewer 2: Choose Me menu > Preferences. Click Setup tab. Click the Reset button near Cache Location. After you're prompted, restart the Viewer. If that doesn't work, try clearing manually: Clearing the Cache from Outside Second Life If you're sure of what you're doing, you can also clear your cache manually. With Second Life closed, go to the appropriate pathway and delete all the files inside the "cache" folder. Get more help on where to find these. Windows XP - C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\SecondLife\cacheAlternatively, use environment variable %APPDATA% to shorten this path to: %APPDATA%/SecondLife/cache Windows Vista - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife\cache Windows Vista Home Premium - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife\browser_profile\cache Windows 7 - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\SecondLife\browser_profile\Cache Windows 7 - C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\SecondLife\ (Viewer version 1.23.5 (136262)) Mac - /Users/<username>/Library/Caches/SecondLife Linux - ~/.secondlife/cache Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phoenix Iskirra Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Sadly its still not working. The bar isnt progressing at all when i try to log in , and i really dont feel comfortable trying the manual way. I have also tryed reinstalling Phoenix and updating to the new one but still not working. I was on sl this morning without any problems but then i just crashed and since then i havent been able to relog, only as my alt av. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Ceawlin Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Try a reboot as Knowl said. If that doesn't work... You may need to get comfortable with deleting those files, or get someone who is comfortable to do it for you. This page lists the file locations, with a link to where they are if you have trouble finding them: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Clear_Cache This page tells you how to do a full uninstall, which you may end up needing to do: https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/How_do_I_fully_uninstall_and_reinstall_Second_Life%3F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knowl Paine Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Any chance of visiting your primary Avatars last location or Home login location if different from your alt? Your primary Avatar might be Ghosted Inworld, you would see your Avatar frozen possibly shadowed. That's about all I can think of atm. Be patient, takes a few minutes for other Residents here to see new replies and to reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix Iskirra Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Hey there i checked to see if she was ghosted inworld as soon as it happened, but sadly that isnt it as well. Ill try and restart my computer and see if that helps. I really dont want to be stuck with my alt, ive spent lots of money on the primary one. Anyway wish me luck all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix Iskirra Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 Oh well i tried the complete uninstall and it still isnt working :matte-motes-frown: I guess i have been wanting to leave SL for awhile now, and i did stay away for about 5 weeks, just came back over the weekend so i guess that is a sign that im not meant to be for sl anymore. Which completely sucks because i was enjoying being back. Thanks everyone for your help but nothing seems to be working atm. Feeling quite sad tbh *sighs* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
