"Server is busy"

I keep getting this message when I try to log in. No one's complaining about it on here as far as I can see, is it only happening to me?

FIX: type your password in the login box and copy it by selecting it, then try logining in again..when it says "server is busy" press enter then ctrl+v your password in instead of typing it again everytime..from there press enter everytime you get server is busy and keep pasting your password this should be done a lot more quicker..you should get in within 10 tries..good luck.

So are you guys going to tell leaver buster to back off? I crashed mid game and had to try to log in for about 7 minutes(said the server was busy) and after the game I had to type"I Agree" (to not leave anymore games) just to be allowed to leave the post game screen. I wouldn't take "Fix you game". lol

Hey all, thanks for the reports here. We are aware of the issue and have found a solution. We are working on implementing it now. Thank you for your patience.

As for the rest of the platform, health is fine. Games are being played as we speak, so once you get into the service, you should be good to go!

Copy password and keep trying. Eventually it will work.

Me and my friend are having that issue too. Must be on Riot's end. 4.20 must have really messed stuff up.

Yeah I also am probably going to get banned again because the sever decided not to let me reconnect and now I cant get back in to finish my match.

Taissen11/22/2014, 5:52:34 AM2 votes

I got disconnected due to my modem reboot, and then i couldnt connect for like 5-10 Minutes, and then i got the Leave Buster warning, i hope that the system is able to differentiate between user issue/DCs and server errors/bugs.

Seriously Riot. Between working all the time and having a baby, I get to play one, maybe two nights a week (Friday and Saturday) and you pull this shit with the servers?!

Fix this now -.-

Open Internet explorer --> open internet options --> click advanced tab --> scroll down and uncheck the two boxes named "Check for server certificate revocation*" and "Check for signatures on downloaded programs".

Worked for me but make sure internet explorer is set as your default browser!

My computer crashed, and when I attempted to log back in it gave me that message. I thus was unable to rejoin the game I was in and now Riot has given me a warning for going afk in matches.

At the very least Riot, take responsibility for the fact that I would have only been afk in a match for ~1 minute if it weren't for you.

DevilFaerie11/22/2014, 3:01:39 PM1 votes

Hey, I got that too, about 8 to 9 hrs ago. League stopped responding and kicked me off during an aram match. I tried to log in for about 5 minutes by using copy and paste but got the same error message. I thought it was just league having maintenance or something. But I logged in today and got a AFK report. So I got reported on the game by the fault of the game, great. I'm sort of glad I'm not the only person who had this issue.

I have this same problem. I will read most of this topic and then try whatever..
