I don't see my game on the trial server list

Post by EnjoyLife »

I forwarded ports 8087-8088 TCP to my PC that is hosting the game.

I am using an Arris modem. I can upload a screenshot of the ipconfig showing local IP of 192.168.0.27 and the Virtual Servers/Port Forwarding page of the Arris Modem/Router.

Set "Directory listing" to Yes on the System tab to show up at www.pokermavens.net (or www.pokermavens.net/trial for the trial edition). Even if your port forwarding is incorrect, you'll still show up in the list.

Thank you. I went to WhatIsMyIP and got my IPv6 address and placed it within [] for the Inter IP address. IPv4 is not detected. I then set Directory listing to Yes. However, I am still not listed on the Trial Server page. I have even restarted the Poker Mavens software after doing so and clicked Start.

when I click on Logs, there is an error log from when it launched. "Error updating pokermavens.net database (Socket Error #10060Connection timed out.)

I went ahead and did an ipconfig /release and ipconfig /renew. After getting a new IP, I updated that in the software and restarted the server. Now I get an Invalid URL submitted to pokermavens.net directory listing: http://[2600:6x40: some more characters :db0a]:8087

Double-clicking the Internet IP Address setting and then the Lookup button should also give you the same value. If it returns a socket error then something is blocking the program from making a connection to pokermavens.net.

Make sure PMServer.exe is in your Windows Firewall "Allow" list. If it is, then something else is blocking. Do you have any security or anti-virus programs running?

I looked in Windows Firewall and allowed the Poker Mavens Server app on Public. It was already allowed on Private.

I am currently using Windows Defender for AV. If there is something that you would like me to change in that, let me know.

When clicking Lookup, The program displays Not Responding in the title bar and then displays the value of "Socket Error # 10060 Connection timed out."

Does Windows Defender have a whitelist feature? Or can you turn it off temporarily just to see if it is the culprit?
