joshespada02 Posted September 23, 2025 Report Posted September 23, 2025 I keep getting an error message when I attempt to start my server saying: You were disconnected from the server. The connection closed unexpectedly: The server closed down the socket without response. The server may be password protected or whitelisted." It's my own server and I also don't have a password on the server. If I try to join in the multiplayer tab, the error message I get is: Unable to Connect to Server. No connection could be made because the Target Machine actively refused it." What can I do? I'm not the smartest when it comes to computer stuff, so if you can help, please dumb it down for me lol. Sorry for the inconvenience 1
Professor Dragon Posted September 25, 2025 Report Posted September 25, 2025 (edited) Maybe try disabling authentication and seeing if that helps? Set this value to "false", restart Vintage Story and see if that changes anything: https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php/Server_Config // If true, every time a player joins the server verifies if that player is a valid, logged in, registered buyer of the game. "VerifyPlayerAuth": true, This is just a guess. You could always post a log set to the Issue Tracker and if the Devs. have time they may be able to say root cause. Professor Dragon. EDIT I suppose I should ask if this has been a previously working setup which has stopped OR if this is a brand new attempt at setting up Vintage Story. Edited September 25, 2025 by Professor Dragon
