Dedicated server not wanting to work

Post by redhatboy »

Hi, well I have all of the correct files that I need, but whenever I run the bat file I get this error: Error Util.cpp:62: Unexpected character at C:\Users\Public\server-settings.json:59 But I don't know where the "59" comes from as I called it server-settings.json. File proof: https://gyazo.com/dbb2ee3ab28c58adccf2de86eb5b7864 (I am running this on my friend's server, using Windows Remote Desktop Connection)

Post the complete log after a session with the issue and the settings file, make sure to mask any passwords in the settings.

Hi, yes. I changes a few things and it works fine now. Other than the fact that it keeps being assigned the wrong port. This is what I am getting: (I added in the stars in the ip)

Code: Select all

Right, I have it receiving its port now. But when I try to connect it says it couldn't establish a connection with the server. (Sorry if this already has a thread/post about this error)
