Can't join my own dedicated server?

[iron heath]

Anyone know how to fix this?
After I click Join Server, it goes through the connecting to steam, joining server etc - and it just seems to get stuck on the
Connect to Server
Server Name: XXXXXXXXX
Username: XXXXX

And then nothing else happens? -> My friend can join my server without issues? I just cant seem to connect myself lol

Getting Server Info > Trying to Connect to Steam > Authorizing with Steam > Joining Game > then nothing happens.

Friend can join just fine?

I am running SteamCMD server

Here is image of server cmd

I have also tried to validate both the server and my game client, no succes - ive tried default ip4 ip, local ip and public ip all same issue.

How is the server installed? And can you share a screenshot how you are writing the local IP and connecting to it?

So I can confirm its correct

Also, share a screenshot of your main menu screen

Just to confirm the version of your game

[iron heath]

SteamCMD via the following:
force_install_dir F:\steamCMDPZServer
login anonymous
app_update 380870 validate
quit

It worked previously without an issue.

I tried both these connections and the public IP (removed from the SS)

They all trigger the serverCMD with client connecting

sorry for the late reply

Again friend can join just fine - I used to be able to also join just fine.
We didnt play for a few days and then this happened after starting the server up again one day. - I did run the app_update in steamCMD also

Hm, that is very weird, it should work based on all the info you shared

Do you have any sort of antivirus or other security software?

And can you check if your network is marked as a Private Network rather than a public one?

It really shouldnt interfere with loopback adresses, but just in case

[iron heath]

I only use the inbuilt Microsoft One, and have all the ports allowed through firewall settings.
It has worked on this Network before and on the b42.13.2 MP dedicated server so not really entirely sure what the issue here is.

I tried to validate my game also to no avail

[little cove]

Double checking your post, you are installing the B41 version of the server?

But the screenshots show you are trying to join on the B42 client?

Or am I misreading, since your commands show you are installing the public version

app_update 380870 validate

[iron heath]

Just to reiterate I am running this version

[iron heath]

I now ran the following command: app_update 380870 -beta unstable validate

It still results in the same join > kick lines in the SteamCMD

It seems like the server with app_update 380870 -beta unstable validate - doesn't update to 42.13.2 - it stays at 42.13.1?

Running: app_update 380870 -beta unstable
says: Success! App '380870' already up to date.

[little cove]

Preferably manually delete the server files, then reinstall

If that still fails, can you share the server console log and the client console log?

[iron heath]

to confirm this is the order?

force_install_dir F:\steamCMDPZServer
login anonymous
app_update 380870 -beta unstable validate

[iron heath]

Reinstalling the server files worked......

Kinda weird why you can't just update the server though, seems silly?

[little cove]

You can, I did it hundreds of times

It is likely a specific problem on your system or your version of SteamCMD
