## Common Issues
|
||||||
|
### Could not communicate with [IP:Port]
|
||||||
|
This is always a configuration error.
|
||||||
|
Note — IW4MAdmin configuration is stored as a text file in `Configuration/IW4MAdminSettings.json`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Make sure your server is running and has a map loaded**
|
||||||
|
**Make sure your rcon password is not commented out (remove the forward slashes before)**
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
// rcon_password "this is wrong"
|
||||||
|
rcon_password "this is right"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- You can verify this by entering `rcon_password` or get `rcon_password` (for Plutonium T6/IW5) into the server console and comparing the output with IW4MAdmin configuration to make sure they are identical.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Make sure the port the server is running on matches what you entered for IW4MAdmin**
|
||||||
|
- You can verify this by entering net_port or get net_port (for Plutonium T6) into the server console and comparing the output with IW4MAdmin configuration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Your router may not support NAT Loopback**
|
||||||
|
- If you are hosting from a home PC, try changing your server IP in the IW4MAdmin configuration to 127.0.0.1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Commands not responding
|
||||||
|
**Make sure your game log file is being created and log sync is turned on**
|
||||||
|
- Each server must have a unique log file name set in the configuration via the `g_log` dvar
|
||||||
|
- Example — `set g_log "my_server_hostname_mp.log"`
|
||||||
|
- `g_logsync` must be set to always flush (1) for IW4x, (2) for T6
|
||||||
|
- Example — `set g_logsync 1`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**If you are running IW4MAdmin remotely, you must setup the [game log server](https://github.com/RaidMax/IW4M-Admin/wiki/Game-Log-Server) python script**
|
||||||
|
**If you entered the log path manually, ensure it's correct**
