Can you paste your full server logs, please?

Are you running another server? Do you have the appropriate firewall rules set up?

Did you follow the guide in our frequently asked questions section?

[Verald]

No. No (i think). yes

[gdude2002]

What OS are you? Windows? What version?

[Verald]

Windows 8.1

[Verald]

Yesterday it did work but not today.. i dont know why

[Verald]

my friend could join to my server too

[Verald]

i tried out different versions of Glowstone but none of them worked :/

[Verald]

So i dont know what is the wrong with it

[Verald]

Please help me

[turt2live]

Try restarting your computer. Also do not double click or open the downloaded file, use a startup script as mentioned on the installation page.

[Verald]

Did not work :(

[Verald]

as i said yesterday i started it and all went good but today just don't want to work. i restarted my computer but didn't solve the problem

[turt2live]

Did you ever double click the downloaded file?

[Verald]

at the very beginning (when i downloaded the jar). but that was like 3 days ago

[turt2live]

Then restarting your computer would have fixed the issue. Do not double click the jar.

[Verald]

didn't work

[gdude2002]

This is not live chat. Please write single comments instead of spamming everyone's email inbox with multiple.

I suggest you check the resource manager and see if anything is listening to the ports. You can do by finding it in the task manager. under the performance tab.

Once you've opened the resource manager, head to the network tab and check the list of listening ports.

Please check this list for your configured port and report back. For example, if the port was 25565 then check that this port is in the list. If it is, post back here with the entry in the Image column.

[Verald]

Not a single on. the near ports are the system and the skype with: 21324 26143 my port is: 25560

[Verald]

by the way i'm Hungarian thats why the language Any idea?

[gdude2002]

Are you running it on the same computer you're using?

[Verald]

yes

[gdude2002]

Hmm.. You have this line in your logs.

[INFO] Binding to address: /7.59.200.87:25565...

Are you setting an ip in the config file? If so, please remove it.

[Verald]

i removed the line but even this way it's binding to address with the same ip:port

[gdude2002]

The only reasons I can think of for having this error are as follows:

• You already have something running on that port
• You're binding to an IP address that doesn't match the local address of your network card
• Your firewall is blocking it
• Hamachi is breaking things, which is pretty common

At this point, we've been through most of these options - please ensure that you really have checked everything. At this point, if all of these have been thoroughly checked, then I don't believe there's anything else we can do.

[Verald]

If i have another computer thats maybe using that port am i able to use it on this computer?

[gdude2002]

No, another computer shouldn't change anything, unless the port it's connected to is on your current one.

[Verald]

How can i check that th eip address and the network card is matching or not?

[gdude2002]

You almost certainly don't need to be setting the ip entry in the configuration. It's only useful for complicated network setups where users have a lot of network cards.

That's not your setup, so you should simply remove it from the config file.

[Verald]

If i have hamachi but i closed it should it be ok? Or i have to uninstall it? Already removed the ip thing

[Aaron1011]

If it's not running, it shouldn't be affecting anything.

[Verald]

So nothing is wrong but it just dont want to work... right :D

1. You saw it too.. i don't run anyting on that port.
2. You said thats not my setup.
3. i disabled my firewall too if that would solve the problem but no..
4. Hamachi isn't running 4.5. Tunngle isn't running

[gdude2002]

At this point, I have no idea what's wrong, provided you fully followed all our instructions. ._.

[Verald]

Looks like deleting everyting solved the problem. plugin worked... worlds loaded.. i don't know what was the problem but it's ok now. anyway thanks for that loooong-looong time you spent just for me guys and sorry for too much commenting. Bye :)
