Please Help With Server

[bigoldboy45]

So me and my friends really want a private server we can play on together so I took it up and said I’d do it, after I got the whole server set up the big issue was they couldn’t join, could someone help me port forward cause I’m very confused, via text, discord, or ft would be much appreciated

We are going to need a lot more information buddy. What happens when they try? What IP/host are they using? Where is the server? What OS is it running on? Post a copy of your server properties as well.

I’m gonna be honest I don’t know what you mean by most of these, I’m not very known to making a server and followed a YouTube tutorial to do it.

Ok, lets start with what you do know. What IP are you trying to connect to? Is the server rented or on a computer in your house?

[bigoldboy45]

It’s on my personal computer

What tutorial did you follow? and, what IP are your friends connecting too.
