A system error occured during event movement

[Gert]

I keep getting the message stated in the title when I try to initiate the quest "Into a Copper Hell". When speaking to the NPC Painted Mesa and selecting the option to begin the instanced quest, my character is frozen in-game while everything else continues as normal. This eventually results in the title message.

I tried to initiate the quest a second time but my character is just stuck, with no error message after five minutes. Is there a fix for this issue?

Edit: It appears this error is the case with multiple instanced quests.
Edit2: This also affects duty finder dungeons it seems.

This is currently being investigated. Official thread here: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...-%28Aug.-24%29
