Not that easy to fix those things. If there was a list to show us the meaning of all error codes , that would be great.

I think ID 17 means: Server down, maybe because you can't reach the server anymore or cause of a recent roblox glitch. Many things that are used to run roblox are Lua Scripts too, they can be as glitchy as scripts from players.

Not sure what it means, but to fix it go on roblox studio and go to a random new game, leave then go to the game you desired

I can play ROBLOX fine, it's just like every 2, 3 or 4 weeks I get that error. I don't think many people know how to program in Lua. And Avast (my antivirus) and my firewall allows me to surf the web and play ROBLOX, but it won't work. I think Error 17 means: Cannot connect to the game right now, please choose another game or try again later. ROBLOX does run on Lua, but I don't think that would backfire the ROBLOX server. It might be that the server for the game has gone funny, and that they have shut down the game to fix it. If it does the same for other ROBLOX games, maybe there's a thing that makes ROBLOX not right, along with it's games. Take an origami crane for an example. If you do the folds right, it's an origami crane. If you missed a step or did a fold wrong, it's not an origami crane. See? That might be the same for ROBLOX. And if this didn't help you at all, I don't know. Sorry if I wasted your time. Well there you go. I think that's what it means.
