socket.timeout: timed out

[RudyB]

Whenever I try to run a query based on a minecraft server IP, I keep getting the error: "socket.timeout: timed out"

Here is the code I am using: server = MinecraftServer.lookup('mc.charliecraft.com') query = server.query() print("The server has the following players online: {0}".format(", ".join(query.players.names)))

Here is the exact error I am getting:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/mcstatus-master/run.py", line 5, in <module>
    query = server.query()
  File "/mcstatus-master/mcstatus/server.py", line 84, in query
    raise exception
  File "/mcstatus-master/mcstatus/server.py", line 79, in query

You should be using server.status()

server.status gives me the amount of players, I want the names of the players as well.

[connorlurring]

Oh, sorry, I see what you're trying to do.

Is the server online?

[RudyB]

Yes the server is, the server.status() correctly gives me the amount of players online

[connorlurring]

Ensure enable-query is set to true in your server.properties

[RudyB]

I'm positive it is

Server restart fixed the problem. Server had uptime of 4 months
