I am playing on a custom 1.18.2 server from ScalaCube the server is up and running all the java things are allowed through my firewall and I have played on a 1.19.2 server like this one with no issues I thought it was a mismatch mod but I've gone through 3 times now 
 
	I think the debug logs would tell me if there was a mismatch mod but I'm not sure
 
	here is part of my debug log 
 
	 
 
	[18Dec2023 17:42:39.918] [Render thread/INFO] [net.minecraft.client.gui.screens.ConnectScreen/]: Connecting to ************, **** 
	[18Dec2023 17:42:42.226] [Server Connector #8/ERROR] [net.minecraft.client.gui.screens.ConnectScreen/]: Couldn't connect to server 
	io.netty.channel.AbstractChannel$AnnotatedConnectException: Connection refused: no further information: ns5021021.ip-***-***-***.net*************:**** 
	Caused by: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: no further information
 
	 
 
	any ideas what I'm doing wrong??
 
	I didn,t mean to post this twice so sorry
