Hey,
I am pretty new to Linux and Proxmox. I tried to use my Terraria game server as a VM in Linux. everything is working, I do have a Network connection and its all working. Ports are forwarded etc. But I cant join my Server. But why am I asking it on the Proxmox Forum? The big problem is that I don't even get a notification in the terminal that someone tried to join. It seems like they don't even find the server. Am I missing something? do I have to explicit activate or open something else in Proxmox? Did anyone experience something like this too?
please help :)
and if its definitely not an issue with my Proxmox than I am sorry :)
 
Are you sure you have forwarded *all* the required ports. If my memory serves correctly, then Terraria required quite a bit of them to be forwarded. Did you forward them on the router or via DNAT?
 
I used my router to port forwarding, and now I tested it with ufw. Both didn't work for me. I forwarded all of the ports. And still no message of trying to reach the server.
 
OMG I am feeling dumb. I port forwarded all these ports for my rig. But now I looked at it again and saw that a new name appeared. The router identifies the VM as a own PC. It completely makes sense but I didn't thought about it. I am sorry wasting your time.

I don't get it ... can you explain again what you did to solve this issue ... ?!?
Didn't you port-forward to the ip address of the VM ... did you port-forward to the Proxmox box instead ... ?!?
No big deal if you did, but I did port-forward to the LAN ip of the lxc containers and I still have problems connecting with some of the master servers.

See this thread:
Game servers (lxc) cannot be listed and are unreachable for master servers

I am just searching for a solution for my situation and so far I can't seem to find it.
