Server stuck on retrieving info although he's online - Cleed - 30.05.2015

I am having that weird problem that a certain server, which is online, shows offline to me in my favorites list, and when I try to find him on hosted/internet lists, it isn't showing.

I cannot also connect to the server, it keeps fails doing that. (On the connecting to the server screen it just keeps saying retrying connection)


Can anyone help me with this? It only happens with this server, the rest of the servers works fine, I don't know why. (It also only happens to me and not the rest of the players)

Thanks in advance.

Problem solved, for anyone who interested about how I solved it, I followed this guide my friend sent to me:

This is the confirmed working fix

Open command prompt as admin type
ipconfig /flushdns

then close command prompt and SAMP if it is open.

Next go to your SanAndreas User files folder in documents
then open SAMP folder, rename or delete
USERDATA.DAT

Now open SAMP and add your URL/DNS server and watch it work.
