[Self-Tests] [Networking] Failed to get public ip from Steam.

[csdnak]

Hello! My system configuration is as follows:

Problem: Encountered at the end of the startup log“ [Self-Tests] [Networking] Failed to get public ip from Steam. [Self-Tests] Please restart the server.”Can you help me see why this error occurred?

[Self-Tests] [Networking] Failed to get public ip from Steam. [Self-Tests] Please restart the server. `

[jammsen]

Hello @csdnak Thanks for your system-config, the server seems to be not able to connect to the internet.

Im not sure what you want me to help you with, can you please better format your logs and write me want you want me to help you with and separate that better? Example: Introduction: xyz Question: abc Logs: 3 times ` then the log and then 3 times ` again?

Like this:

log log log

[csdnak]

Maybe I didn't describe it clearly. At present, my server can access the Internet, which is mapped to the intranet server through the public network ip and all the ports are open. This server also runs other survival game servers like rust without any problems, only running sons of t He forest private server encountered: Unable to get steam public network ip, please restart the server. This is the automatic detection mechanism of the game. If it fails, the game server will not be started, so can I bypass it, because I try the LAN mode to run it perfectly!

[jammsen]

You can only bypass that by using LAN-Mode, but that dont registers your server at the master-server so anybody else can see it and join it with you, only LAN-IPs are free i guess.

You have to make sure your setup allows that lookup of the Public/WAN-IP of the server or else the server wont start. This is way better then the old TheForest DS did that, because it checks the basics of communication and if that is not given it refuses to server, which in itself is very good.

I understand it causes confusion here and on Steam-Forums but i rather have this version like this than the old way of guessing whats wrong, because the TheForest server didnt check anything and you were clueless whats going on and whats broken.

[csdnak]

The link log in the LAN mode shown in the figure shows that the server can be accessed to the Internet, so can I try to link to my LAN server through the background public network ip ➕ port? Its three ports have been mapped to the public network ip 210.75.203.35 (8766, 27016, 9700 udp)

[csdnak]

@jammsen Thank you very much for your answer. I want to know whether the automatic detection mechanism is friendly to the multi-network card environment. Can you add an option to bind the public network ip?

[csdnak]

@jammsen Sorry to bother you again. Today I tried to restart the server. The difference is that it detected my public network IP but could not detect the port. I am very sure that these ports are open in the firewall and router, but the Windows server does not seem to have this problem. Does this prove that there are some problems with the detection mechanism on Linux?

[csdnak]

@jammsen As shown in the image, to demonstrate that the server's ports are accurately open, I conducted tests on the relevant UDP ports. The top-left corner shows network card traffic monitoring, while the top-right corner displays packet tests on three ports of the server's public IP: 27016/udp, 8766/udp, and 9700/udp. Below is the game log listener window, which successfully launched in LAN mode. It can be observed that the packet tests for all three ports are marked as "successfully." Additionally, when sending packets to port 9700, the game log provides a corresponding indication, confirming that the packets have entered the server via the 9700/udp port on the public network. The network card traffic monitoring in the top-left corner also detected incoming traffic packets from Huawei Cloud. All of this serves as sufficient evidence that my server has correctly opened all UDP ports.

Through multiple attempts, I have also noticed that there seems to be a minor issue with the self-testing mechanism. It produces two types of results: 1. Unable to obtain the public IP, requiring a server restart; 2. Successfully obtained the public IP, but the port detection failed, necessitating repairs and a server restart. The former occurrence is more frequent than the latter. Therefore, I boldly speculate that the self-testing mechanism's network timeout duration may be too short, resulting in poor communication with Steam's network in certain regions, leading to a perpetual network testing state.

[jammsen]

@jammsen Thank you very much for your answer. I want to know whether the automatic detection mechanism is friendly to the multi-network card environment. Can you add an option to bind the public network ip?

I dont know if that is friendly to milti-nics, but that shouldnt matter, its Docker using the routing tables of your system, thats it, if your routing is good, that Docker and the game-server is good, you just might need to look deeper into your router.

The difference is that it detected my public network IP but could not detect the port. I am very sure that these ports are open in the firewall and router, but the Windows server does not seem to have this problem. Does this prove that there are some problems with the detection mechanism on Linux?

That even confirms it for me.

Portscans and IP lookup screens, if that IP and ports are working i would say its between your ?VM? and your ?Router? + "resulting in poor communication with Steam's network in certain regions, leading to a perpetual network testing state."

There are times when Steam-servers are offline indeed, but they have normally loadbalancing, shouldnt be that big of a problem, except the entire region is offline.

Without a deep insight or a stream in Discord of your setup, im not sure how to help any further. Because this seems to me a networking-problem not a Docker or my image problem.

[csdnak]

@jammsen Okay, thank you very much for your patient answer. The container is indeed running perfectly. I will follow the forum for future solutions. Thank you again for your answer!

[jammsen]

@csdnak I mean we can hop into a Discord call if you want and you share me what you have, maybe we find something.

[csdnak]

@jammsen Of course, no problem. I think it's feasible.

[jammsen]

You guys have PFSENSE or OpenSense? https://steamcommunity.com/app/1326470/discussions/0/3808404524164518482/?ctp=6#c3808404963060221979

[csdnak]

@jammsen Since my server is located in China, I am using the Huawei AR1220-S enterprise router. It is a versatile enterprise-level router launched by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. It incorporates advanced hardware and software designs, providing powerful network connectivity, routing, security, and service features. It is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, branch offices, and office environments.

[csdnak]

你们有PFSENSE还是OpenSense？ https://steamcommunity.com/app/1326470/discussions/0/3808404524164518482/?ctp=6#c3808404963060221979

I tried the forum method, but due to some differences in the routers I used, I did not find the reflection rule NAT+PROXY mode in the NAT configuration. As shown in the picture, this is my management page NAT configuration.

@jammsen My problem has been resolved: update the server -->modify the dedicated server configuration file: "SkipNetworkAccessibilityTest": true, so that network detection can be skipped!

hello csdnak I have a question , I don't have a public IP address on my computer , I used FRP ，how to make it detect my penetrated ip

[Dancza1]

I met the same problem as you, the self-test always fails to detect the ip.

[jammsen]

@jammsen My problem has been resolved: update the server -->modify the dedicated server configuration file: "SkipNetworkAccessibilityTest": true, so that network detection can be skipped!

@Dancza1 use this.

[Dancza1]

@jammsen My problem has been resolved: update the server -->modify the dedicated server configuration file: "SkipNetworkAccessibilityTest": true, so that network detection can be skipped!

Feeling your answer, using this method allows me to connect directly to the server by entering the ip and port number, but I can't search for the server in the game lobby

Not that only skips the tests of the startup-process of the gameserver, you still need to make sure that the master-server can reach your on server via port-forwarding or nat'ing.

first of all, I'm using Windows Server 2022.when I modify the dedicated server configuration file: "SkipNetworkAccessibilityTest": true, the following would occur. I'm sure the game side is able to connect to the server, it's just that steam doesn't search for it, like this and I have to manually type in the public ip from while playing the game in order to get to the server. when I modify the dedicated server configuration file: "SkipNetworkAccessibilityTest": false

[gitzec]

My guess is that:

1. GFoC is blocking outgoing checks of SOTF server which detect the public ip. This can be solved by disabling SkipNetworkAccessibilityTest as you did.
2. SOTF then cannot be reached by Steam server browsers because you did not configure everything needed to let it connect to your server. As @jammsen wrote: Make sure to allow these ports in your firewall and create port forwarding rules if needed: 8766,27016,9700 (all UDP)

[jammsen]

1. First of, if you need support create a new issue and dont spam other people on a ticket thats already solved, Thanks!
2. You put a LAN-IP in the field for the PUBLIC-IP, that will freak out the server.
3. I have already told you, you need to setup port-forwarding or NAT'ing

[jammsen]

I made the rules for support more clear, feel free to read them here: https://github.com/jammsen/docker-sons-of-the-forest-dedicated-server/blob/master/README.md

According to that now written out rules (they existed in my head, but werent written down, now they are) im locking this thread, so the other participants wont get bothered with this.
