SA:MP server wont run even tho port is forwarded / firewall etc - Kooola - 02.01.2013
So after 4 years i thought i'd try to run a server for 2 friends or so
Apparantly the server wont show up when trying to connect from outside to my direct ip
i have 7777 forwarded to my local ip 192.168.x.xx -> check (both udp/tcp)
i have samp-server.exe added in firewall for acceptance -> check
The server works locally,(127.0.0.1:777) fine
ppl from outside my home network just cant connect
they get connection lots
My thought is that something is wrong (duh)
Maybe samp-server.exe isnt broadcasting properly thus not activating the port going outbound
Why i think this is because when i run my source based server on the same local ip on port 27015 and go check on canyouseemee.org it appears as open etc
7777 for samp wont do that
The last thing i even tried was (closing everything including hl2dm server)
Change the port in samp server cfg to 27015 (wich validated as open) on 192.168.x.xx making it so it "should" work
Started the server -> Nope canyouseemee.org tells me its not open
the firewall popup that came i allowed and everything so it cant be that
im running the .exe as admin and nothing fancy really
tried disabling microsoft security essentials and wat not
Whatever i do it ends in no workie
Hopefully somebody will know what exactly is going on here
Greetings

download Simple Port Forwarding PRO VERSION you can easily get torrent with crack. Then follow the intrusctions in getting started and by the end of the intstructions it will check if the port is open then give ur external ip to others and it shall work.

Sometimes your antivirus program is blocking the ports for me that was the problem...I used eset nod32 antivirus and this comes with a personal firewall..If you too are yousing this here is the metod:Open the eset nod32 program--->Click on Setup--->Personal firewall------>And where it is written that enabled you can disable it for example 4 hours or infinitive,then you can check your server status at game-state.eu Hope i helped you

OK first. if you have port forwarded download port checker and check port 7777. If it gives you a green message than your port are forwarded. If it gives you a red message than the port are not forwarded. If the port aren't forwarded goto : 192.168.1.1 write your password and forward the ports, look some tutorial if you don't know how to forward them. After you forwarded your ports check again with port checker if you get the green message than you should give to your friend your IP not 127.0.0.1:7777. To get your IP you should search in ****** : what is my IP and after you get it, give to your friend your ip:7777.
