I can't join my server; It says "The specified host is not available."
I have started the server with localadmin but an error shows in the console saying "Could not update server data on server list - Invalid or too long 'ip' parameter.". I haven't verified my server yet, does that affect it? Anyway, what can I do to fix this? Please PLEASE help me. I have been trying to fix this for 2 days.

Follow the guides in our pinned MP2 thread. You may have used a wrong IP in the configs.

Thanks. That fixes that, but I encountered another problem. I set a password for the remote admin console in the remote admin config but the password wont work.

Password is buggy. Use Steam ID Authentication instead.

SteamID64. Refer to our pinned MP2 thread for new remoteadmin config format.

Sorry to keep asking you questions, but which IP address do I send, and where is it? I tried sending the ipv4 bind address (the one I put into direct connect to connect to it) and it didn’t accept the verification saying I used the internal IP. Please help. I have tried verifying three times.

You were using internal IP, which starts with 192.168. Use Google to find your public IP first, then use that public IP to do port forwarding.

I am trying to verify my server, but it says I put in incorrect info or my server is offline. My server is online, I put in the public IP, the type the IP is (dynamic), and the port (7777). It won't accept it, and I have been trying for almost a week now. Can you help me?

That means our team cannot join your server. You may have done port forwarding wrong.

I can connect to the server only with the internal IP. The public IP doesn’t work. When I send the Public IP, they can’t connect. When I send the internal IP which they could connect to, they reject it. Also, how do I know what port to use?

In your port forwarding settings, you have to use your public IP. You may be using your internal IP for port forwarding, which causes issues.

Where do I find the port forwarding settings?

Usually in your router. Refer to its manual.
