Server shows however unconnectable

Post by LolYouQQing » Sun Jun 07, 2015 10:41 am

Hi Folks,

I recently started hosting servers for ARK, however I've encountered a problem I cannot get pass. Therefore I'm seeking assistance from anyone who might have a clue what is going on or have fixed it themselves.

Basically I have 5 IPs on my dedicated server, I've tried to use all of them by changing the multihome=IPADDRESS
Every IP shows up on the server list and arkservers.net however none of them are connectable. The error message I receive is Connection Timeout.

Nothing to debug in the console aswell as it just shows
STEAMPS3 - AsyncTCPSocket created
STEAMPS3 - AsncTCPSocket destroyed
Nothing out of the ordinary.

I hope this was clear enough...

If you got that far then I would assume that you have forwarded all of the ports for each server as well as port 7777, so double check the permissions on the Engine folder, make sure the account/admin/system have full control, I came across that issue once with Space Engineers and that is what fixed it for my server.

Sounds like a posibility. However the user account I use is already Administrator. I'll check the permissions it the folder etc.
And yes all ports are forwarded.

Will come back with results.

I got my server started last night, all ports forwarded, and server side it appears to run fine. But when anyone attempts to join, it's shows people instantly connect and disconnect. Client side the client starts to load, but she it gets to where you'd create a character, the screen goes black fir about 30 seconds and then goes to server select with a "host connection timeout". It appears that there is no communication on the ports even though they are forwarded correctly. Anyone have any idea what's going on?
