Hey guys, my server loads fine with all of my mods and my preloaded world. Once I go into the "server" file with notepad and put my IP in, it crashed on startup.

 

Any ideas? My IP changed so I updated it to the new one and it also does not work. I haven't used this in awhile and the server file is completely different than my old one so maybe that has something to do with it.

 

I attached pictures of what my old server file was when it was working and the new, fresh one that it installs once deleted/run again. (First picture is fresh downloaded "server" file, second one down is the old one that USED to work)

In my experience you shouldn't touch the IP field in the server unless you know what you're doing or your server host has told you to do so.

This is my Forum Signature, I am currently attempting to transform it into a small guide for fixing easier issues using spoiler blocks to keep things tidy.

 

As the most common issue I feel I should put this outside the main bulk:

The only official source for Forge is https://files.minecraftforge.net, and the only site I trust for getting mods is CurseForge.

If you use any site other than these, please take a look at the StopModReposts project and install their browser extension, I would also advise running a virus scan.

 

For players asking for assistance with Forge please expand the spoiler below and read the appropriate section(s) in its/their entirety.

Looked in the logs and found this...

[22:59:14] [Server thread/WARN]: The exception was: java.net.BindException: Cannot assign requested address: bind

Also, is this with the server-ip field empty or still with the IP you put in?

I don't know how that would be possible...didn't touch the game for a month then came back and it just stopped working. I see it's a common problem however. Any solutions?

This is with the IP put in. It loads without it put in but doesn't show up whenever I try to connect in the multiplayer tab in-game

Are you hoping it will show up by itself? That doesn't work with dedicated servers, even local ones.

If your client is on the same machine as the server, use "localhost" as the IP to connect to.

Is this something new? I had the 198. blah blah stuff in the server IP and it always would connect. Things may have changed since I last messed with this...

Update: I can connect. What do I give to friends for them to join? Thanks so much for the help by the way, my girlfriend and I appreciate it :)

Your (external) IP as well as the port your server is hosted on.
