Why wont my port open?

Post by MrCupcake »

ok so earlier today i got my port open (yay) but i had to get off my comp within 25 minutes. once i am able to get back on everything was wrong cuz the port closed for some reason. i left my console open for people to get on, bu something happened while i was gone and now i cant open it back up. ive done everything i did to open it the first time, but its not working anymore. please help!!

everytime i click check to see if the port is open, it says something else is using the port. what would the something be?

Please show your logs if you think this is fcraft server software related. I actually think this is caused by your router but i'm not sure about it. Also look at this website : http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/
I hope it will help

You may have to manually shut down the processes of the previous server as some tcp/udp ports stay open for me. I recommend getting an application that tells you what ports are open/being used, and should have the ability to shut down those ports.
