I can't get CaravelNet cloud sync to work for a while. Before the issues begin, I deleted my CaravelNet data, and now when I click on "Activate Cloud Sync" it just says "Cloud sync error."

Today I had some time and begun debugging:

- the drod.exe process wants to communicate with an Amazon IP address (I guess that's the CaravelNet server or its load-balancer or something) at 23.21.221.75:80 via HTTP (according to procmon)

- the actual communication happening is this (removed a few characters from the key if that's something player-specific and secret):

POST /game50.php HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: DROD 5.0
Host: forum.caravelgames.com
Accept: */*

HTTP/1.0 500 Internal Server Error
Date: Sun, 06 Apr 2025 10:18:14 GMT
Server: Apache
Content-Length: 0
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1

- given that it's a HTTP 500 I don't think I can fix it on my side easily, and I don't have access to the server

Not a real worry, I'm not collecting DROD trophies, but somebody might want to have a look at it.

I have had this issue for a while (3-4 months) and it also only started when I deleted my cloud data (and I am on a 5.2 build). You have gotten further than me though. Maybe Schik can help here.

Returning from a looong break, is there a way to resolve this issue?

I have been told that there is no current way to resolve this issue. It may be build related.
