Okay I can't see any error in my logs:

I share them with you ... my internal.txt
Code:
IP=WANIP
PORT=38101
CHAT_IP=WANIP
CHAT_PORT=38121

MySQL connection using WAN IP ... My Players should connect to my WANIP
I think probably the mistake is that in all ini files write 127.0.0.1 not my WANIP so ? only in WorlServ ... is my WANIP

all service status is =:> running :S

why I can't connect ???

I am using chumpy's reppack

Help me please Ragezoners :ehh:
 
Wan IP won't 127.0.0.1 ... because the Server can start buth any players can't (Needed LAN IP for Centos : 192.168.2.2
for Windows too neded LAN IP : 192.168.2.2)

That is thw way it is supposed to be. Most of the connections the server makes are to itself (127.0.0.1 = "yourself" to a computer). The only place where the actual ip address is needed are the 2 lines in worldsvr.

The server seems to be starting up ok so i'm guessing you have a router that can't host properly as there is no connection attempt in the loginsvr logs. Try running cabal_config again and when asked for the ip use the centos lan one (cabal_config should detect this as the "local ip"). Set your internal.txt to use the lan ip and see if that works. If it does then you have a router that can't do it, external people can probably get in if everything uses the wan ip but lan people can't.

It is quite common to find you have a router that won't let lan people connect to the router's wan address and all you can do is use hamachi/openvpn or have your lan players use the SOCKS proxy method of connecting.

@chumpywumpy man I don't have a router ... and even I can't connect to my server I don't know why :S

and could someone teach me how to config the IP's in all the .ini files I saw a simple guide but was to simple maybe I am doing a mistake in configs ... :(

What to put in terms of IP address in the ini files is far from a simple matter and was the main cause of the mass failings people had when the server files first leaked. The whole reason i started my repack and rewrote gen_config.sh was to address that problem. My cabal_config script knows exactly what needs changing and where, and it knows what it needs to ask you to get it done. Simply follow the questions and as long as you give it the correct answers it will do the job right.

Can you ping the centos IP address from a windows command prompt? You won't be able to connect unless you can get a ping response. If you don't have a router (i.e. your windows "ipcinfig" shows the same IP as ) then your vmware network settings should be bridged instead of NAT.

@chumpywumpy you are N1 man but even all the help you give me I can't connect :S
maybe I saw a video guide that shows in Internal.txt:

IP_CHAT=192.168.2.2
PORT_CHAT=38101

and my is

CHAT_IP=192.168.2.2
CHAT_PORT=38101

which one is right ??

Don't just use the ip addresses from the guides as they are not going to be right for your setup. You need to use the "ifconfig" command on centos to find it's ip and use that in internal.txt
