Server Help Help creating a Starbound server! (Access violation error)

So I have an ATT DSL connection. I tried Port forwarding 21025 AND running DMZ plus on my router. I have also tried using a static IP. Every time I try creating a server it gives me the error posted below after it says "Scanning for ports for port forwarding" on the cmd prompt. I have searched for hours on the forum and other sites with no resolve. Please help me!
EDIT: It is important to not that is actually allowed me to create a server say.. 2 out of the 15 times I tried to make one? The server was fully functional and allowed my friend to join.

 

Bump

 

What model of router do you use? Are you making sure the port forwarding is pointing towards your computers IP from the router and do you have any other protective software such as a firewall that may be blocking the game?

 

I am using an ATT 3801HGV router and yes the dmz plus is opened at my computer's IP. I used a port forwarding tool to check if the port is opened and both TCP and UDP are opened. I have made ingoing and outgoing rules on the firewall to allow port 21025.

 

I hate to sound like the annoying tech but i have no experience with that model of router. All i can offer is information you have probably tried already, just in case heres a link for you, see if it helps at all.

What would the application type be labeled under? a private network?

 

What are the options, im pretty sure that is just a label and doesn't actually attribute to anything, more for documentation / admin use

 

FTP,
H.323-based internet telephony,
DirectX Game
IRC (Internet relay chat) server
PPTP virtual private network server
SIP-based internet telephony

 

If you manually setup the port forwarding you need to turn off UPnP.

Find this line in starbound\assets\default_configuration.config:

"upnpPortForwarding" : true,

...and replace it with this line...

"upnpPortForwarding" : false,

 

Its not realy any of those, out of any of them i would choose DirectX game Virtual Private network server. Sorry i cant be of much more help without being there, American routers are far different to European ones, i Literally had to change 2 settings and i was hosting haha!

 

Do I have to restart my computer for port forwarding changes to take effect? And haha it's okay.

 

Is that not only if you are hosting via third party networking programs like Hamachi? If hes hosting through his router he would have to forward that port to his computer and the server would need to detect that the port is working. If you turn that feature off wouldnt it stop him from working all together?

I have manually set up my server with no configuration of the config files and i have manually set my port forwarding.

 

I think he means disable upnp because this is causing actually a server crash (as the title mention access violation) but normally you shouldn't need to touch this option even if you manually forward

I have seen threads about this upnp option causing crashes

 

You should not have to restart the computer as the port forwarding happens on the router not the computer its self. all it does is redirect packets that come in on a certain port to a certain ip, in this case your computer.

Anyhow, its getting late here in the UK and i need my beauty sleep! Keep this post updated with your progress and if your still having problems tomorrow perhaps i can help sort your issues out remotely or by voice comm

 

IT WORKED!!! Thanks everyone. I just disabled upnp and manually forwarded the port. The DMZ plus option seemed to not be working. Thank you!!!

 

Haha glad to have been of little or no service! Good call Jammrock on the UPNP setting

 

Haha yeah it didn't work when I turned upnp off when I dmz'd plus which is why i dismissed it as an option

 

Putridmango, I have the exact same router as you, and I need help lol. I have portfowarded it, but how do I change the UPnP settings and what is dmz?

 

You go to your steam app> common > starbound > assets > default_config and change the upnp portforwarding to "false,". After that, you have to open the TCP port 21025

 

use this link for directions as to how to do it. Do not put an application type. just leave that blank http://www.noip.com/support/knowledgebase/port-forwarding-on-a-2wire-3801hgv-router/
