Ben Zen Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 I'm having a massive issue getting people to connect to my Tekkit server. I can connect and play just fine but when other people try the IP, they get "Can't reach server". I have done EVERYTHING, made sure the Minecraft Port (25565) goes through my firewall, Port routed 25565 to my IP, made sure online-mode is enabled and all the basic stuff.. But nothing seems to work, so i'm beginning to think it's on the other end. Minecraft is again going through the firewall on my friends pc but he still can't reach my server. these are my Server.cfg: allow-nether=true level-name=Tekkit enable-query=false allow-flight=true server-port=25565 level-type=DEFAULT enable-rcon=false level-seed= server-ip=192.168.1.7 max-build-height=256 spawn-npcs=true white-list=false spawn-animals=true online-mode=true pvp=true difficulty=1 gamemode=0 max-players=5 spawn-monsters=true generate-structures=true view-distance=10 motd=Derp We are linked through hamachi aswell but i don't believe it makes any difference when im using this method. Please help out, i have no idea what's wrong and it's so frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arctichenry Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Change your port to somthing not being used. Its entiraly possable you have somthing else with a higher priority running through port 25565. Other then that, your config looks good. Is that your local IP, check it.

Ben Zen Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 Yes i believe that is my local IP, - using www.whatsmyip.org, it shows my IP is 2.105.164.234, but if i try to use that as server IP it can't bind the port. And i already made a port route directly from my router settings local ip to the port 25565, but i don't think there is any thing running with a higher prio through that port?

theprolo Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Leave the server ip blank. It'll use your default one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Zen Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 Leave the server ip blank. It'll use your default one. It worked perfectly, thanks! I just set it as blank and then i had my friend connect to the IP i got from www.whatsmyip.org ! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Zen Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Uh okay so it did work, but now the next day, None of the IP's work. I can't find my own server on any of my IP's, even tho the Server Launcher, launches the server without problem, it still says "Can't reach server" in the Technic Launcher, when i try to to connect to my Local & Public IP (WITH the server-ip blank & port set to 25565). Now if i try to put in my Local or public IP instead of blank, it won't even bind the port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theprolo Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Never put the IP. It's possible that your local IP has changed, in which case you need to find your new one and re port-forward for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Zen Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 It also gives me the warning in the server launcher: "[WARNING] Could not get information about this CraftBukkit version: perhaps you are running a custom one?: IOException" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Zen Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 Oh yea i see my local ip has changed from .7 to .6 Thanks man, will it keep doing this? Should i make a port-forward rule for all possible changes then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theprolo Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 It should only happen when you disconnect from your internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojomoep Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I am having the same problem except neither my hamachi Ip or my local IP works. I have tried everything too! Opened my firewall and changed the Ip numerous times from hamachi to blank with and without :25565 When you leave the ip blank it will take your highest priority network controller. So just get the Hamachi controller on highest priority and you should be fine with a blank ip info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
