Help with these servers

Posted

I need help creating a server. Whenever I create a server  I get a error message (port 25565 not open, you may need to port forward it) and see what I did in that little box over there. It still shows that stupid error when I restart the server. This is frustrating and I have tried this on so many ports. Any help? Plus the McGalaxy page does not include even some help for this problem.image.thumb.png.d9513e6010cf7a4e1f46aa0963f1fdd6.png

Make the server private then share the link of the server somewhere. Making the server public requires a open port

this won't work in almost all cases - an "open port" is required for anybody to connect.

the heartbeat attempts to connect to your server, and if it can't connect it doesn't give you a link (in order to prevent the server list from having a million servers without the ability to join them) - if you *can* connect externally but the heartbeat still says your port isn't open, then that means you likely have a firewall configuration blocking the heartbeat server from connecting to your server or something.

 

side note: it worked for you because you have the same ip and are therefore most likely on the same network
