google for server.met, then download the file and replace the server.met file on aMule's folder. Then restart aMule.

Regards.

I have the same problem. I googled "server.met" as suggested. There was no server.met file already in the aMule folder,
so I simply dragged the downloaded file to the aMule file and restarted aMule. Still no connection.
I've also tried clicking on the "download server list" arrow, but I get the message that it failed to download.

I have used aMule previously with no problems, so although I'm no tech whiz, I'm not a newbie to aMule.

What am I doing wrong, or not doing?

Thanks for no help guys. 

I partially figured out the problem myself. For any other Mac users with the same problem, the server.met document
goes here: Users>Library>Application Support>aMule. It does not go in the aMule folder in Applications.

So, I now have a server list. But now when I try to run a search I get an ongoing "trying to connect" message. 

Not expecting much help from this forum, so I'll just plug away at the problem and report back.

Hello,

I have the same problem as Uncaff. I originally was unable to get a server list, so I replaced the server.met file in the  aMule application support folder. This worked to get me a server list, but when I try to connect I just get an ongoing "Trying to Connect" message. I have no idea what steps to take to fix this, so any help would be appreciated. I don't have a firewall enabled on my computer. Thanks.

Hi cocu83,

Tried your link and got a page of what appear to be servers with a lot
of gobbledygook symbols in between. How did you put this list into
the aMule folder?

right-click the link, and "save link as" to save the file.

Yo skolnik,

Thanks a lot. Feel like a dummy for not trying a right click. However,
installed the slist and voila! aMule's working.
