This plugin is used with Game tracker and of course Minecraft Viewer. It's just a server status banner. To see how many people are on the server, if the server is live and a few other stats.
I was wondering if anyone could provide any help on this problem.
Problem: Gametracker won't pick up our server. Its saying its either offline, the plugin isn't installed or the UDP 25565 port isn't forwarded.
- Port is open
- I disabled firewall just in case
- Plugin is installed and console says its enabled and working fine
- Port is running on 25565 for the plugin as well
I feel like i've done everything possible to get this working. Yet it still isn't working....Anyone have any suggestions?
I'm not a big fan of the fact that this is a closed-source, proprietary script that is written and meant for use by a competitor, but you can try to run it if you wish. I'm not familiar enough with it to know what might be causing your problem, but we don't have a firewall or other measure on our end that would stop it. You might try restarting your server completely to see if that helps.
Some plugins like this also need the IP to bind to set, and if it isn't then it will bind to an IP on the machine at random. Make sure that the IP is set to your server's IP if there is a way to set it.
If you don't bind to any IP, it will automatically bind to all interfaces that are available, which is bad and there's probably something in the ToS about that (Even if it isn't on purpose)
