[solved] Can't connect to dedicated server

Hallo,

first some Info's what i have:

Root Server:

• Intel Core I7
• 32Gb Ram
• Windows 2012 R2
• directly connected to Internet with IP-Number 89.163.xxx.xxx
• second IP-Number on the same Networkcard 10.14.xxx.xxx for VPN to administrate the Server
• .net 4.6.2 installed
• admin rights
• incomming Firewall Rule for Port 27017

Client:

• For testing i used two PC's, one at home, one at work. From both clients i can connect to other SpaceEngineers Servers

I used a Steam64 group ID and the Server shows up in the SpaceEngineers Server List. So i can try to connect.
From both clients i can't connect to my dedicated Server and get the Message "The Server Host has left the game".
On the Server side it shows on the console (local game, not as a service) "Peer2Peer_connectionFailed MYSTEAMID" (MYSTEAMID = my Steam-ID )
The Server didn't crashed i think because he did an autosave 8 minutes later.



The connection_log looks like (is from today after testing)

What i try/did:

• installed dedicated Server only
• installed Steam Client and then a full installation, started Server with/without steam logged in
• disabled Firewall
• used both Server options, as a Service and local
• i used https://www.spaceengineersgame.com/dedicated-servers.html for setup the Server
• setup the Server with and without Steam64 group ID
• using incomming and outgoing Firewall Rules for Steam https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8571-GLVN-8711&l=english

Hopefully i didn't miss any Infos and someone can provide any help.

Thanks in advance
Matthias

 

That's the problem, because unfortunately the game cannot be bound to a specific network interface. Many have tried, and complained to Keen, for a long time, but I'm not aware of any current solution to this. The server will not reliably or correctly function with multiple network connections :/

One of I think several relevant bug report thread (with no response from Keen) https://forum.keenswh.com/threads/a...le-nic-cards-incorrectly-prioritized.6963000/

 

can you post up the the server cfg file its in the hidden app data folder/spaceengineers/(instancename)

Also you do know by using the steam group id you are restricting your server to only let people who are a member of that group able to connect anyway add me on steam see if i can get you going https://steamcommunity.com/id/lordmuttly/

oh and try opening port 8766

 

Hello and thx for the information. I removed the second IP from the networkcard and the problem was solved
Didn'r saw this as a problem because the server and the logs shows the right Internet IP for the SE server.

Port 8766 was open before
