Server Doesn't Show up In Browser
« on: September 12, 2007, 01:57:12 PM »
I believe KnacK is having the same trouble as me, but when I went to read some posts from his thread I didn't understand a thing :S

Here is my data from sk89q's server troubleshooter:

Code: [Select]
> Checking if the server can be connected to...
> Checking 67.158.74.200:27910
> Connection SUCCESSFUL!
> Checking server list...
> Getting server list from http://dplogin.com/serverlist.php
> 71 lines of server list data
> Processed 65 server lines
> Parsed 24 different IPs out of the server list
> 2 entry/entries found in server list for your IP address:
>    67.158.74.200:1521
>    67.158.74.200:1523
> None of the entries have the right port!
> public is set to 1

I believe this section may be causing me some trouble:
Code: [Select]
> 2 entry/entries found in server list for your IP address:
>    67.158.74.200:1521
>    67.158.74.200:1523
> None of the entries have the right port!

Recommendations from Test

    * Run the command heartbeat in console, as it seems the server is public and it's on, but somehow it wasn't added correctly to the list
    * If it still doesn't work, then ask in the server help forum (say public = 1, forwarded/firewall = configured, others can connect)


I am currently on #2 :)

Any ideas?

Sounds like the router ports aren't configured correctly.

hmm


So should I head on over to my router page and try forwarding them a different way?  :-\

Did you forward UDP? If you did that then I really am no help.

"Connection SUCCESSFUL!"

My friend's server has the same problem. You can connect to it, play on it fine, but it always shows up on the server list with the wrong ports, however many times you may restart the server. I posted a thread about it a few months ago, and jitspoe replied, but since it wasn't my server, I couldn't do much more than RCON, so I wasn't able to provide jitspoe the info he asked for (and then the thread died...).

Also, when I was testing the troubleshooter, the server I booted up had the same problem... you can connect, but it had the wrong port numbers on the server list.

Can someone remind me how to change which port the server is set to?

In the command line you can do +set port <#> or in the config you can write seta port <#>

Curiously, QueeNiE, what did you change the port to/do? I need to fix my friend's server, and add it to the troubleshooter.

My problem was beyond what most are doing here.

Mine was redirecting a public IP via NAT to anotehr seperate internal network on my LAN here at the office.

I don't think we're going to find too many people with your situation :P

Though, I might just add to the troubleshooter: "This troubleshooter's recommendations are designed for a star network topology, with the central hub as your router and gateway to the Internet (i.e. what most home networks are like)"

Basically sk89q I just changed the port of the server to the one that the heartbeat sent to the site.  Which was 1521.

So:

1: I put "seta port 1521" into my .cfg

2: Re-forwarded my ports.

3: Went to go play on my server :D

That's such cheating! (though, I was thinking you only did that >>)
