Re: Error connecting to Spore Servers

It didn't work, I'll try contacting customer support.

Thanks anyways!

This fix didn't work for me either. Any updates on other ways to get online?  It finally let me log in, but whenever trying to verify it comes up with the same error message. I just reinstalled it on a brand new computer with windows 10 on it, and my internet is working fine. Help would be appreciated...

Sadly, according to EA (talked to someone about it), Spore servers might be closed and dead for good.

I'm not sure at the moment. I may get an answer to whether they're dead or not at this moment.

Now, afaik, Spore servers are dead. That's the reason behind your inability to login. If they're up, then either edit the firewall to allow Spore through, check your internet, or make sure you have spore (and any expansions) registered with their product codes through Origin. If you have the steam-store versions, there should be a CD-Key to the right of the game's tab. Use that in the Origin client.

Either way, depending on your issue, it'd have to be one of those three. The latter two can be fixed, the first cannot (can't make a private server, not sure how anyways).

So if the spore servers are dead, there's nothing you can do. Apologies. ☹️

What will deleting the login.prop file do? is there any negative affect of deleting it for good, or is there anyway to recover it and what is it supposed to accomplish by deleting it? just asking if anyone knows.

P.S. I don't think the topic that the attached link leads to is relevant to Users who installed the game from the CD set. Seeing that none of the error messages discuss are the same as the one @Coront took a screenshot of, which is the same error message I'm getting. 

When I open the roaming folder, Spore isn't present in there, is this a fault of my own, or or something wrong?

I had to run the game once before it showed up.

• "Open the Roaming folder
• Double-click on Spore.
• Then double-click on Preferences.
• This folder should contain the login.prop file. Right-click and delete this file and restart Spore."

I don't see login.prop. Sorry for necroing.

Edit: Nevermind, deleted Login.prop, but it still gave the same error. @Freggi-Liz? I'd really like to login so I can use the sporepedia and actually see others' content. Well, whatever fraction of the Spore community still exists, in this case.

it should be there, if not you would have to completely reinstall the game!
