Last chance before I give up on the idea completely.
I ran a server for just short of 2 years and took that server down for financial & personal reasons.
Over the past few weeks I have been looking at getting it back online so here goes with some information.
127.0.0.1 does not work on PC, I had running before (for the time I mentioned above as 192.168.1.100 in place of 127.0.0.1 so please don't say 192.168.1.100 is wrong
All IP's are correct, though I am unsure of TBL_GMIP and if should be set to local or net IP, whichever I use the server runs.
The server is running on pc with no errors whatsoever.
The router is a linksys x2000 which says in its instructions it gets around loopback with assigning the local IP to DMZ, which I have done.
The router and server PC are connected by ethernet cable.
This is btw the exact same PC that the server ran on before.
With game not running portcheck shows all the ports open to the server pc.
My problem is, why when I use listmake to set up the launcher then activate the launcher, it shows server offline?
I have tried both No-ip and putting in the NETIP.
I was hoping not to wipe the DB's and start afresh but it's the only thing I can think of now. I have restored DB's back to when server was working before.
I don't suppose it could be a server date/ DB date conflict of some kind? Do I need to set serverPC date back to when the last backup was?
Ideas/solutions would be appreciated.
Thank you.
