When I download and play a server, it won't let me connect in game. It says "The server didn't respond. Retrying.." I opened the server.exe but still won't work. This happens to all downloadable servers like HGRP Scrip, NGRP Script. Please help.

Did you know?

NGRP Scripts uses Mysql and you need to define it.

and 127.0.0.1 is the default ip in local hosts

Is that the problem?

[NealPeteros]

Is it only NGRP or all the RP scripts that uses mysql?

Most RP scripts will use MySQL.
To use the NGRP script you would need to have a copy of the database that came with it setup on a MySQL server

What about Freeroam servers? Do they use MySQL too?

Make sure you update the server to the version matching your SA-MP client (the latest is 0.3.7). Download the files from here and place announce.exe, samp-npc.exe and samp-server.exe in your server directory.
