Hi.
I'm trying to connect to a friend's server but I keep to receive this message from minecraft:
Failed To Connect to the server: Connection timed out: connect
Before beta it was all ok, I played for days without any problem,I have portforwarded and all things..

We have to wait a beta version of servers?
I checked firewall,port,router and all...
thanks

[McFrosty]

same problem here dude, it just kicked me from the server and now i cant play onlone at all, i hopw somebody finds a solution( )

Now it's minecraft 1.0.2 but there is still that problem...

[viet]

Sometimes (only with the map I used with my friends in alpha) I got this error:  lost connection: Internal exception: java.net.SocketException: Software caused connection abort: recv failed. Don't know what I have to do.

[MRsi3nt]

same here and all the other servers i try suck and are deserted

[McFrosty]

i figured out what the problem is, nobody is runing serers on beta because mods dont work on beta! so, when the mods work, people will turn the servers back on, its just that nobody is running them with no mods

McFrosty that isn't the issue, I'm running a server, but i can't connect to mine.

We will have to wait on Notch to fix this problem.

I hope its ok to ----BUMP---- this thread.

I have the same problem. I even downloaded a new minecraf_server.jar and made a completely different map and everything, and the server seems to be running fine. But I can't connect, just a simple Connection timed out: Connect. Is there a fix for this yet, or did I do something wrong. It's not because of mods or anything cause I made a new world and a new server and everything.

EDIT: Well, now it works. I just had to re-open my ports for some reason...

[McFrosty]

Yea, Because minecraft works on one connection, but it will give me this message on the other connection, but after I opened my ports it worked fine so I guess that is what the problem is.

[yocool126]

how do you open your ports, I'm a noob when it comes to computers.

I finally managed to fix the recv failed problem for myself.
I wrote a blog article about it:
http://randompctips.... ... fixed.html

Please ask if you still have any questions!

How do i open my ports??

Google, it's a wonderful tool.

portforward.com/routers.htm

Find your routers model # there and on the next page, hit the 'skip ad' link and then on the next page, click Minecraft Server and you'll have instructions for Minecraft.

Yeah yeah, I know I'm bumping a somewhat old thread..

I've been experiencing the same exact issues no matter what I do.  Internet is fine, server is fine, router is all set up, firewall is disabled, etc., yet I keep getting this same error.

I went ahead and tried this, unfortunately they have the router model, but not the correct version.  Even trying the same thing listed for the other version on my router did not help.

Actually, sansavarous is one of the more helpful people on these boards and is far from a "noob".. he's actually quite wise and helpful.

Minecraft works fine.. we have tons of servers and customers using them without any issues... so if you're encountering problems, 99.99999% of the time it's because of something with your systems setup.. not an issue with Minecraft.

Dude. I have no internet problems, i have forwarded my port , firewall disable and i have done everything and i still got this problems. So Rokhorn is right sansavarous is a noob for trying to stop us solving our problem.

So if you go to: http://ping.eu/port-chk/ and type in your server ip and port it says your good to go then?
