[Bug Report / Configuration] RCON Timeout [Resolved]

[newenpoi]

Have you read the Important information text above

• [X] Yes i did

Current behavior

Might be more a misconfiguration than a bug and please excuse me if it is so,

While running docker compose run --rm rcon info I get the following result cli: execute: auth: rcon: dial tcp 10.0.0.5:25575: i/o timeout

Desired behavior

It should output the description set at the environment variable SERVER_DESCRIPTION, like in the given example on the readme Welcome to Pal Server[v0.1.2.0] jammsen-docker-generated-20384.

To Reproduce

I used the default docker compose given as in the example, only the published port for the dedicated server (not rcon) has been modified to 7777, the rest is basically the same.

I also tried to switch between RCON_ENABLED True & False, it was False by default, no changes.

I tried to edit this line entrypoint: ['/rcon', '-a', '10.0.0.5:25575', '-p', 'passwd'] (with the corresponding password from the dedicated server of course), by using palworld-dedicated-server:25575 instead, no changes.

Software setup

• OS: Windows 11
• Docker: 4.26.1 (Docker Desktop)

Hardware setup

Enough power to fry my whole building I guess... 😆

Hello @newenpoi - Please remove my testing ip 10.0.0.5 and update it with your docker-node ip 😄

Do you have Discord? Can you add me and we jump in a call please? Nickname jammsen

Thank you for your reply @jammsen , I just recently started using Docker, so the term docker-node ip is not very relevant to me yet, however, I suppose you meant this line "IPAddress": "172.17.0.2" when doing a docker inspect on the container?

Please correct me if I am wrong, also, I added you on discord. 😆

Yes, also you can use "ip addr show docker0" for view the ip address of docker and use that! change the docker-compose.yml and you can re-run command. GLHF

Thank you for your suggestion @Ignoto95 , but on Windows 11, this issue is resolved by using this line for example entrypoint: ['/rcon', '-a', '192.168.1.21:25573', '-p', 'passwd'] instead of entrypoint: ['/rcon', '-a', '127.0.0.1:25573', '-p', 'passwd']. Seems like docker on W11 didn't liked the loopback (:

Thanks for your time @jammsen !

Thanks everyone.

I dont know if its important but you have a number twister in your config @kdaye : docker inspect show the default ip 172.17.0.2 and in your docker-compose.yml you have 127.17.0.2 172 and 127.

Hope its the problem. GL

[jammsen]

@kdaye Use the IP adress of the host Docker is running on, not the internal ips.

Im closing this issue as resolved, as @newenpoi problem is solved.

If you like this project, please consider giving this repo and the docker-hub-repo a Star.

You can add RCON Buddy to manage your RCON via HTTP:

There is example for a docker-compose in the readme:
