Server Help

Everyone can enter my zone but it's showing red on list. If you go to zones and update list it will be green and saying it's up but after waiting a few seconds it turns red but still showing lag so it's meaning it's up. I have uploaded my server.ini I'm thinking something is wrong with my router I got the port open but not sure if I messed it up or somtething, if anyone has a clue of what to do please respond to this message. Thank you.

You need port, and port + 1 open.

Ok I'll try doing that I think I only did the port+1

Ok I tried it. It's still doing it. I'm using same computer but I switched it from wireless to wired and that's when it started. But I havn't changend anything in my server.ini or subbil.ini recently for it to start messing up.

In server.ini, you have to put your actual IP address instead of 127.0.0.1 or localhost http://whatismyip.com/

Whoa that's quite vague Samapico, there's more than one place you can put an IP in server.ini.

i said 'instead of 127.0.0.1 or localhost' ... so that would be in serverIP or something like that... I don't have anything instealled here

Yeah I know that, I have localhost where it is supposed to be and I have my actual IP where it is supposed to be. My zone showed green before, and it didn't start this until I switched this computer from wireless to wired, and yes I opened the port 7200 and 7200+1

Cancer+ · Posted: Sun Aug 26, 2007 1:05 pm Post subject:

So you opened 7200 and 7201 correct?

Change your passwords and post your server.ini

lol i didnt read all the way down :)

when u switched form wireless to wired, check that your local ip didnt change.
adapters can have their own.

aka 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.3

As Mav said, adding your zone as a 'custom' zone with 127.0.0.1 might work... I remember having to do something like that too

Kinda in a hurry but here's the prob my zone shows RED but I and everyone else CAN enter! No one has a problem entering the zone just it will be green when you download zones and then after about 10 seconds it's red but you can still enter, and so can I.

Samapico · Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2007 3:17 pm Post subject:

Yeah you already said that... Did you try adding a custom zone with 172.0.0.1 yet?

JoWie · Posted: Mon Sep 03, 2007 6:32 pm Post subject:

Some routers do not allow you to connect to your own outside IP address.

So you would need to use 127.0.0.1 or perhaps your local IP address (ex: 192.168.1.1)

The problem is probably more the 'way' subgame tries to loop to itself rather than the whole self-reference thing not working...
If that made sense...

I had to do that with my D-Link 601(I think)

Smong · Posted: Tue Sep 04, 2007 3:19 pm Post subject:

I've never been able to connect to my external IP (although I've only ever owned 2 different brand/model routers). As a workaround it can probably be done by using "route add" in windows (optionally with the permanent switch).

Anyway, back on topic. Try changing the port the server uses (add 1000 or something like that), maybe another program has grabbed the port+1 before you could start subgame.

had same problem. and tried everything was so bummed.

then i just thought you know maybe i need those " marks and lo and behold that was it put "localhost" in but I assumed the " where there to show me what to put in there, no you need them as well
