Hey Guys, I've been trying to set up my server and such, I've done all the rest Except the staticdoesn't seem to be working. I've been using this tutorial, and various others http://portforward.com/networking/static-win7.htm I do thsoe steps, validate when closed, then i go to run my MC server, and connect to my External IP, Annnnd Nothing, Just says (In MC Launcher) "Can't Reach Server" I have a feeling it is Either the static ip, or something in my server porperties file? I'll copy and paste my Server Properties file below: #Minecraft server properties #Thu Mar 28 21:02:48 EDT 2013 generator-settings= allow-nether=true level-name=Meh enable-query=false allow-flight=false server-port=25565 level-type=DEFAULT enable-rcon=false level-seed= server-ip= max-build-height=256 spawn-npcs=true white-list=false spawn-animals=true snooper-enabled=true hardcore=false texture-pack= online-mode=true pvp=true difficulty=1 server-name=Unknown Server gamemode=0 max-players=20 If you can help, please do! Also as of right now only people in my "LAN" Can connect to my server using my internal IP, noone can connect outside
It says it is closed Idk if this would matter but i am portforwarding from a different computer, that wouldn't matter right? And yeah i fixed the firewall
Sorry, xD I did the website, and it said my ip was Closed, But i am portforwarding and running the server on one computer, and checking the port on the other, but i just checked on that computer too, it also says it is closed
How would i do that with Nortan, I've tried before but i could not find out how, also couldn't i just allow the program or something though it?
Had a feeling....... And alright, i'll give that a try :/ Aghh i have no idea how to enable a port in the firewall. To google! EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
With what address are you connecting to your server with? Static iping isn't your problemo. You haven't specified your internal server ip in your server.properties. Once you do that, your server will be setup to your external address if you portforwarded properly. Thank me later h8r
lol, i had a feeling but i never knew Cman_ Because i've heard not to change that and such, i'll try that now
Oh.... k lol Alright i tried Disabling my firewall, it isn't working still. Wait. Ok so in the CMD Server launch, It says as the last thing /192.168.1.62:55440 lost connection Is it detecting the right port in the server-side? And also i have the port set to 192.168.1.4 EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
Don't mind that 55440, it's just a random number of the client socket. I'm pretty sure the port forwarding in the router isn't correct, but I can't tell you anything else than rechecking the tutorials :/
