TFS 0.X Can't login into character (Display only list)

GhostWD · Nov 6, 2018

Hi there!

I've got issue with TFS0.4 on Ubuntu16.04. What exactly?
When I try to login from outter network and in config.lua IP is set to 192.168.0.102 I can login into account but im stuck on character list and can't proceed because connection is timing out and https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ says that port 7171 and 7172 are opened

When I try to login from outter network and in config.lua IP is set to e.g. 93.233.20.61(public ip from whatismyip.com) I can't login to account and https://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ says that port 7171 and 7172 are closed

website(port 80) works always (my friends can access it)

Network:
Internet->Modem->Router->PC1,PC2,PCn
On router i have used DMZ and Port Forwarding and nothing helped
ufw disabled

Config:
[Lua] -- The Forgotten Server Config -- Account manager accountManager = true - Pastebin.com

That's because that IP isn't your public IP, either get it through What Is My IP? Shows your real IP - IPv4 - IPv6 - WhatIsMyIP.com® or "ifconfig" in your terminal.

@Bogart

but when I use my public IP from this website I can't connect to port 7171-7172(80 working) on Open Port Check Tool - Test Port Forwarding on Your Router they look like closed(No Respond?)

Any ideas?

Bogart · Nov 6, 2018

Well, are the ports 7171-7172 open?

Router should DMZ/port forward to 192.168.0.102
In IP changer from outer network you should use IP 93.233.20.61
In config.lua you should use 93.233.20.61

Then connection from internet should work. Connections from local network and 'this PC' (host) may not work.
If it does not, it means that router does not work properly or some firewall block connections from internet.

-------------------
I recommend to host server on dedic/VPS. For small server/tests you can use VPS or super cheap dedic:
Kimsufi: affordable dedicated servers! (2GB RAM VPS for 3 euro per month)
Kimsufi: affordable dedicated server! (4GB RAM dedic for 8 euro per month)

Dedic got one IP and it's public IP.

I've found this using netstat -tulpn

IP set to public (on local ip 192.168.0.102:7171-7172 is present)

should it be like this? apache2 is accessible outside and have :::80. Can anyone check this on own server?

7171, 7172 have to be ported for udp & tcp, not only tcp

Hmm It seems that I have only problem with Fir3Element distro(my edited and clean from github) idk why. this one is running smooth but I need to run my server because off modifications I've added ( some months ago it was working ) maybe some source modifications?

oh and when I used this distro netstat -tulpn returned

Other players need to use your global IP to login
You need to use your local ip to login. 127.0.01

----
You also need to make sure you have 'xaamp' open, and the first two things active.
Or w/e the program is.
If both aren't active, then your ports will appear closed I think.

@Xikini
Thank you for your help!

Could your friend use this command in terminal? "netstat -tulpn" and copy output like this

Code:

Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State       PID/Program name
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:7171          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      4395/theforgottense
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:7172          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      4395/theforgottense

because what I would like to know are local adresses which are used for theforgottenserver process

i think fir3element repo uses some ip setter(?) and it automatically sets local ip adress as global (because i could connect to server [this one] on same host using other pc outside of host local network)

Hey there Ghost,
This sounds like a firewall issue to me. What firewall are you using?

GhostWD · Nov 13, 2018

@luptonicedtea
UFW - Community Help Wiki

GhostWD · Nov 14, 2018

last *BUMP* and I'll let it go :C

@reminder
Other distro[this] is working corectly by this I mean I can login to account and play on any character using global ip
On my edited sources and "vanilla" fir3element sources I can't login to server using global ip

luptonicedtea · Nov 14, 2018

What's the output of sudo ufw status?
What happens if you change the port?
Also, I'm unfamiliar with "admin port". It has "adminlocalhostonly" set equal to true. What happens if you change that?

GhostWD · Nov 14, 2018

ufs disabled haven't tried to change ports but netstat shows some um... differences between otserv0.6.4 and tfs0.4

otserv

Code:

tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:7171            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      11194/otserv
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:7172            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      11194/otserv

tfs

Code:

tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:7171          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      4395/theforgottense
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:7172          0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      4395/theforgottense

IP in those two config is set to my global address
i will try to change ports and that second config value

@edit
still nothing server is using 127.0.0.1 even if in config is my ip only on local ip it changes to that local adress

TFS 0.X Can't login into character (Display only list)
