My server wont connect
My server had a world not connecting and was lagging from being online for a long time without rebooting the computer it runs from, but after restarting the computer the entire system runs and the servers config has not changed since beforehand but its not even reading the connections at all anymore, nothing changed since before, ip is the same, the ports are the same, firewall still allows players through, but it still keeps saying 'cannot connect to server' and placed to read its connection say its offline.

Got any server logs?
And show your port forwarding rules and ipconfig of local machine
i have velocity to forward to ports from 25560-25572 on that server group, with 1 being velocity listening on port 25565 for that specific computer, which i verified from my end that they were set up correctly still, i will need to copy a server log so gimme one second
Could you show the port forwarding rules and ipconfig as requested? As well as what you have in velocity.toml?
mclo.gs - Paste, share & analyse your Minecraft logs
Easily paste your Minecraft logs to share and analyse them.
https://mclo.gs/Sdaj7qi for one of the logs
Velocity latest.log might be more useful at the exact moment than the backend
https://mclo.gs/9Xul7qs shows my configuration for velocity as well
Port forwarding rules + ipconfig?
the port forwarding rules are in that configuration i posted above
i have them all set to forward using the localhost port 127.0.0.1
What?
so their ip's are all localhost
You port forward on your router/network firewall :FrogeBIGEYES:
let me screenshot it
and its been set completely according to this already, this only started after the device restarted
You don't need to port forward your backend ports.
Just the port velocity is listening on
Verify your host machine still received
10.0.094 as the IP addressstill has it, and i port forwarded just to be safe
It's actually less secure to port forward your backend server ports.
im aware
Mind sending the output of ipconfig/ifconfig, depending on what platform you use? (windows/linux respectively)
Lol don't use mclo.gs for that one. It censors IPs

Disable ipv6, restart velocity
ok
I disabled ipv6 on the computer is there another area for velocity itself?
Nope
then let me test once more
still not working
How are you testing to see if you can connect?
using my other computer to try and join
On the same network?
yes
Using your public IP?
yes
Try using 10.0.0.94
you'll need to use your local ip if ur inside the same network
localip is working 10.0.0.94 but the public still sint
you can't use your public IP to test from your local network
that's called hairpin nat
a lot of routers don't support it
my router worked with it until yesterday and other places couldnt read the connection
i am having someon else try to connect now
it shows its details but couldnt get the status
saying it timed out on connection
Could not get the server status…
Did you type the correct address? The server may also be temporarily down. Please try again later.

What's the first two sets of number of your Public IP?
for exmaple 127.0
73.98
Double check that using https://ipchicken.com/
yep shows same thing
You wouldn't happen to have like two routers would you?

before*
it has 2 bands but i have everything running from the 2.4 ghz band
Inside your router you should have something like an "internet status" or "internet connection" page
This is how mine looks, for example
Compare the IPv4 there to the one you see in ipchicken
I dont think taking apart my router is a good plan lol
I don't mean physically lol
the settings page
so the router settings
yes
yep the router matches it
Alright good, you aren't a victim of CGnat
And your machine can be connected to locally
So the issue is somewhere either in windows firewall, or the port forwarding rules.
At this point i completely disabled windows firewall
for the sake of seeing if it was the issue
and my port forwards are set already to their own numbers which i opened for the sake of ensuring connection
what
all backend servers have their own ports i manually assigned from 25560-25572 except 25565 which was set for velocity
6 are for the servers themselves, 6 are for the vc servers
okay but you are supposed to ONLY port forward the velocity port
i will try adjusting the port forward then
still not working
and as i say that a couple minutes later it fixes itself.... my computer hates me
