Solved People cannot join server, but I can on localhost.

My server was working fine, and for some reason, whenever I try to connect to my server via IP it says 'Can't reach server'. But when I connect by localhost, I can connect fine. I have tried the server.properties IP thing, I have kept it blank, IP in, with the port, without the port. All of it! And it is starting to make me go insane. Please, I beg you, help me.

 

Well, you will be able to connect using localhost because that is connecting LOCALY. Are you sure you are using the right ip to join?

 

I am using the ip given to me from ipchicken.com

 

You need to port-forward for your Minecraft server to work. Forward port 25565 and it should work.

 

It is portforwarded.

 

Your port forwarding may not have worked correctly. I recommend going in and redoing it. And i also recommend watching a tutorial to make sure you do it right.

 

My server has worked before. So the portforward worked, it must be something else.

 

Check your server.properties and see if the settings are all right. Also, your ip could have changed over time. Go into command prompt and do ipconfig . See if your internal ip switched and then if it did, you may have to re port forward

I posted the server properties, and checked the portforward. It is fine.

I bet people will say they don't support offline mode,watch this

 

Your server ip is set to nothing.

Code:

server-ip= NONE

 

Your problem is obvious, but I'm not telling you the simple way to fix it because you are running in offline mode.

However, I'll give you a hint... it's because of how your router works. You are trying to connect to the wrong place.

 

Okay, I RePortforwareded, I set my IP to nothing. And it is in online mode. It still does work.

 

Did you forward UDP/TPC? As well, is your IPv4 changing? If it changes than your port forwarding will no longer be correct. Also, are you forwarding just 25565? If you are, does your server know this?

 

Okay, now It works, for an unknown reason. I wish I knew why. But it does now. Thank you for ALL of your help!

 

port=25565 DERP

 

Isn't this supposed to be either True or False?
I don't think there's a 'offline' option for this one. Only 'True' or 'False'
