KF2 Server problem.

[King Of Hell]

So basically i've set it up, it was working fine, i've played with friends, next day i turn it on and i cant see it ingame, nor any friends can join it, i can join myself using console (open 127.0.0.1) but no one can join it and i cant see it in server browser, all the needed ports are open thought the router and the firewall, i havent changed anything, server simply stopped working, like ports got closed or something. any ideas?


EDIT: i've deleted and reinstalled the server and it works now, seems like updating doesnt work, you actually have to reinstall it.

i tried but it doesnt work, you sure there was update? server says its running kf version 1006

was just a guess. If you didn't asign static internal IP based on your MAC address then that's probably the issue. Your internal IP changed.

thing is that i'm not new to these kind of stuff, so i checked my internal ip like 50 times, to be sure. it didnt change for past few months.

Troubleshoot it. Try hosting a terraria server and checking ports with openportchecker

I have the same problem, my server got instantly filled with people very fast few days back. But now I can't find it from the server browser. The only way to let other people join me is to tell them the IP of your server and connect using the console. I would really like to know what's bothering the server for not showing up on the server browser anymore, I updated it using the SteamCMD, server is on v1005 and the client is on v1006.

I'm having the same problem. Server is updated to v1006, game is updated to 1006 and my server doesn't show up anymore on the browser list. I can enter my server through console "open insertiphere" but it doesn't show up on the browser list anymore. It was working fine 2 days ago. What am I doing wrong?

[King Of Hell]

so anyone got any fixes for it? i'm trying to reinstall the server and see if it works. i'll post results.
it worked ...

I had the same issue, I started the server, looked up my IP and then typed open YOURIPHERE:7777 into console and it found it, but everyone else had to join the same way since it wasn't a listed server. The console button is ' btw.

run your steamcmd again but this time logg in as login anonymous,now it should ask u for a steam guard code ,go to your email adress get code paste it in,then the rest should be uppdating the server

I completely reinstalled the KF2Server folder and did it by using this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RosSDkmlVqo I suggest you give it a go, it helped me out.

I ended up doing the same thing and put it in a new directory and it worked for about 14 hours then suddenly **POOF** it dropped off the master list again and I couldn't see my server in LAN. Ports are 100% not an issue for me because it was working and tons of people were playing then literally out of nowhere it just stopped showing up for people so matchmaking stopped directing people to my server.. Can the other people that had this issue chime in and see if their servers did the same thing? Both server AND game are up to date: v1006..


EDIT: This issue is occurring when client version and game version aren't working. Even if you validate/update your server files it can say they are up to date at v1006 without actually knowing what version the game is actually at. I just reinstalled server manually and it is at v1007 now... Does anyone know a way to update the server files that actually works without having to reinstall every update?
