i changed my server port to this and it worked, it would still be convenient to have 25565 as the port though is this what you asked for??

That level name might cause problems, idk if it can accept special characters
ahmed349
ahmed349OP2y ago
i mean, if the server says "Done!" then it shouldnt be an issue?
Discount Milk
Discount Milk2y ago
But that wouldn't cause your port forward problems
ahmed349
ahmed349OP2y ago

i mean if the server works on one port and not on the other can it really be server related

Open Port Check Tool - Test Port Forwarding on Your Router
Port checker is a utility used to identify your external IP address and detect open ports on your connection. This tool is useful for finding out if your port forwarding is setup correctly or if your server applications are being blocked by a firewall.

Alright, looks like your server is running. https://mcsrvstat.us/ Mind putting your public IP into this site and trying to see if that works?
