[Help] COD4 Private Server RCON Not Responding

[BosnianArmy 517]

Hello Guys,

 

I need help with my private COD4 server. The problem is the rcon. When I try to connect the B3 system with my cod4 private server, the B3 cmd says: No response.

 

I have made a custom file for in the mod folder with these commands:

 

set rcon_password "bosnianarmy1231"

set rcon_port "28961"

 

Also I tried to connect with a RCON-Tool software to see if the rcon is really responding or not. So what happend is, it connects and few second later it disconnects. I'm not sure if this is a firewall problem or a port problem, etc. 

 

I've looked into the Deathrun console log and nothing interesting. I've looked in the B3 log and I found only this interesting:

My b3.xml:

 

  <settings name="server">

    <set name="rcon_password">bosnianarmy1231</set>

    <set name="port">28961</set>

    <set name="public_ip">127.0.0.1</set>

    <set name="game_log">D:\STEAM GAMES\steamapps\common\Call of Duty 4\Mods\b3deathrun\games_mp.log</set>

  </settings>

 

AND my runDedicatedServer.batch file:

 

cd ..\..\

iw3mp.exe +set fs_game "mods\b3deathrun" +set dedicated 2 +set net_port 28960 +set g_gametype "deathrun" +exec server.cfg +map mp_dr_likeabossv2 +set rcon_password "bosnianarmy1231" +exec fix.cfg

 

And my router for portforwarding:

 

 

(Beide means both, it selects automaticly UDP and TCP).

I told you about the port number in shoutbox already... FFS do you ever read? You have the port set to 28960 in your batch script whilst B3 is trying to connect to a server on 28961...

[BosnianArmy 517]

Nope, didn't fixed.

VERBOSE    'No readable socket' - Lost connection to game server

 

question

1) do you see b3 sending console messages in the cod4 console

2) are you able connect to the server through cod4

if so answer these questions

2a) do you see b3 messages such as "Big Brother Bot is watching you... www.BigBrotherBot.net'"

2b) do you get any response when typing !help

3) triple check to make sure port numbers are the same. Type in cod4 server console net_port and compare it to b3.

[BosnianArmy 517]

2A:  Yes

 

2B: No :Dave:

 

3: "net_port" is: "28960" default: "28960"

  Domain is any integer from 0 to 65535

 

And yes the same to B3.xml

 

  <set name="port">28960</set>

  <set name="public_ip">127.0.0.1</set>

  <set name="rcon_ip">127.0.0.1</set>

[Lossy 1968]

and question 1)?

[BosnianArmy 517]

The only thing what I see in the COD4 Console is this when I put the B3 on, spamming it to:

 

"sv_hostname" is: "Death Run 1.1 | www.braxi.cba.pl" default: "CoD4Host"

  Domain is any text

 

Rcon from 127.0.0.1:-4850:

 

sv_hostname

 

"sv_hostname" is: "Death Run 1.1 | www.braxi.cba.pl" default: "CoD4Host"

  Domain is any text

 

Rcon from 127.0.0.1:-4850:

 

sv_hostname

 

"sv_hostname" is: "Death Run 1.1 | www.braxi.cba.pl" default: "CoD4Host"

  Domain is any text

 

Rcon from 127.0.0.1:-4850:

sv_hostname

 

"sv_hostname" is: "Death Run 1.1 | www.braxi.cba.pl" default: "CoD4Host"

  Domain is any text

can you just take a screen shot pl0x?

[BosnianArmy 517]

Normal start up (cleared screen for the B3 startup):

 

 

And after clearing the screen and starting B3 up:

make sure the setting game_log is actually going where the cod4 write its logs

[BosnianArmy 517]

1)

 

2)

 

3)

I don't see where directory 1 is going. but all i know is you've got multiple problems :dave:

 

try changing "public_ip" to your actual ip address and see if that changes anything

[BosnianArmy 517]

By actual IP you mean the ISP IP?

[atrX 426]

try changing "public_ip" to your actual ip address and see if that changes anything

You can't send/receive data to/from your own public IP. 127.0.0.1/localhost is just fine. ;)

 

By actual IP you mean the ISP IP?

No clue what an ISP IP is supposed to be but he means your public IP, as in the one used by your router to send/receive data on the internet.

You can't send/receive data to/from your own public IP. 127.0.0.1/localhost is just fine. ;)

never know it might work

[BosnianArmy 517]

Tried my public IP with my Router IP and RCON IP is then my laptop's IP (not 127.0.0.1 but 192.168.0.12). And yet still doesn't work. Also tried public and rcon IP with my laptop's IP.

 

I have no idea anymore, I'm getting headache from this :dave: (not litteraly).

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

I just found this out after using the command net_ip:

 

"net_ip" is: "0.0.0.0" default: "0.0.0.0"

 

I tried net_port as well and that one is normal: 28960.

 

EDIT EDIT:

 

Used the command set net_ip 192.168.0.12 , so the IP from my laptop. Restarted the server with 2 commands: net_restart and fast_restart. Changed the b3.xml file with both command lines with the same IP and yet it doesn't connect with RCON :rage:.

Lol whats the point of having set the masterserver to cod4master.activision.com? Why not whatever the 1.7a one is? I believe cod4master.activision.com is down and has been for a while.

[Lossy 1968]

cod4master.activision.com is not down. It automatically sends a heartbeat to that master server as well.

 

You should of checked before saying that.
