Help - How to put server online and configure ZnoteAAC in linux?

[MooMage]

Hello!

Well, I am trying to create an Otserver in Ubuntu Server using a Virtual Machine in my computer.
All is running perfect, but I can't access the game outside my local network.
If I configure it to access locally, I can play it perfectly, but can't allow my friends to log in the game.
To do so, I installed No-ip and followed their tutorial.
I opened the doors of my router.
But I get 'Error: Connection refused. (10061)'

I need help on how proceed or what to do.
Can someone help me?

Thanks!

What IP do you have in config.lua?

What IP do you have in config.lua?

My IP in config.lua is the same provided by no-ip, or the site http://www.whatismyip.com/
I have also tried to use xxxx.otserver.no-ip.org, but none of them worked.
Thanks!

Thanks so much, but still have problems, also tried to put my local ip in the /etc/hosts, but didn't work too.
I put my config.lua to help understant my configurations.
Is this problem possibly caused 'cause I trying to run it in a Virtual Machine (VMware)?
I also tried to setup the VM as NAT, Bridge and Host-Only, none worked
Locally it works! Logged using another computer connected via wifi, using my local ip in config.lua and it worked fine;

1. VM to Bride
2. get VM local IP(address starting in 192.168.x.x or maybe 10.x.x.x)
3. Hosts line 3: "192.168.x.x server.domain.com" Replace 192.168.x.x with your local ip ofc
4. config.lua: bind only global adress "yes"
5. config.lua ip to local 192.168.x.x ip
6. ipchanger to domain

Its not the VM because that is how I used to host test servers.

 

[MooMage]

1. Set to Bridge.
2. VM assumed local ip as '10.1.1.3' -> opened doors in the router Nat -> 7171 and 7172 to 10.1.1.3
3. Hosts line 3: '10.1.1.3 xxxxotserver.no-ip.org
4. bind only global adress "yes"
5. Config.lua ip set to "10.1.1.3"
6. Ip Changer set to "xxxxotserver.no-ip.org"

-> Connection refused...

If I set my ip changer to '10.1.1.3' I can access it from windows.

This is the result of a ping from the server in the VM.




It seems like something is blocking the access, so stopped the windows firewall and antivirus.
But uselless. :/

 

[dominique120]

That ping is pointelss. You might as well just ping 127.0.0.1. Ping from another device. Also, in your IP changer use the domain. Also are you sure your VM was access to www?

 

[MooMage]

It pings using www.google.com, now I gonna try ping from another device...

 

[MooMage]

Locally, other devices can ping the virtual machine.

 

[MooMage]

Are this an important information?

Can it be my problem? How can I solve it?

was about to suggest for you to check your ports, that's the only logical problem.

How to open ports:

Step One:
http://www.whatismyip.com—>> Write your ip down for future reference.

Step Two:
http://192.168.1.1/—>> There should pop up a login screen.
You can try most of the following and one of them works most of the time
Admin/Admin
Admin123/Admin123
Admin/Password
Password/Password
Admin123/Password
Admin/
/Password

Step Three:
Now that you are logged in, if yours is like mine it should show something like this

Step Four: You should see something like, Create new port, or as mine says Add Custom Service.
http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/2530/step26up.png

Once you click it, then make sure its TCP, and port forward
Name: Tibia
Starting Port: 7171
Ending Port: 7172

Name: Apache
Starting Port: 80
Ending Port: 80

Name: MySQL
Starting Port: 3306
Ending Port: 3306

Then all you do, is launch xampp_start and goto your ip that i had you detail earlier, and put /index.php on end, EXAMPLE: if your ip was 222.555.12 you would type
http://222.555.12/index.php.

HEY HEY HEY!!!
I found!
My modem has a factory defect, so can't disable firewall, cause changes don't save! LOL?
So I had to set it up as Bridge and configure it with my tp-link router. That worked!

Now I am having problems about ZnoteAAC installation on linux, I have no idea how to start....

Can someone help me?

I have already installed apache and php.
But can't set properly the ZnoteAAC at the specified locals as suggested in the site. (maybe cause it is in windows.)

I would thanks!

Found This, but can't replicate on linux
