Very strange server list error

Post by Azzerhoden » 20 Nov 2015, 18:05

I have an issue going on with a server I just setup, where it is not appearing in the server list.

* The world_1.xml isPrivate flag is set to 0.
* The firewall is allowing all connections through (incoming & outgoing)
* I have also tried turning the firewall completely off
* Hide empty servers and protected server options are disabled.
* If I try to connect using 'Direct Connection', the server times out.
* I have also opened up ports 28000-28002 just for the off chance the firewall is buggy in allowing the server through.

Now, for the really bizarre part - I can go in and edit the yo.cs file under scripts to connect directly and connection is instantaneous.
Code: Select all
   function joinToRemoteServer(%addr, %password)
   {
      //$JoinGameAddress = %addr;
      //$JoinGamePassword = %password;
      $JoinGameAddress = "IP:Port";
      $JoinGamePassword = "password";

      initConnection();
   }


As this was a brand new virtual instance of 2008R2, I can only think there is some security setting somewhere preventing this.

Any thoughts on how to proceed further in debugging this?

In yet another issue - apparently you do not need to use the password when connecting in this manner as I had several folks create accounts.

Not really an issue, but edited the previous post to not list the IP address.

And yes Virginia, password was not really the password.

Scratch that - I tested this against some other folks locked server and was correctly denied access with an invalid password error.

My server however, continuously allows me to join, specifying no password and the wrong password.

And never mind. I recreated my instance as world_2 and it appeared in the list and is password protected.

Crazy I tell you, just crazy. :crazy:
