Can't start server, error:-10049

For some reason since update I cant host a mission. As soon as I select the mission I get connection interrupted and then "Can't start server, error:-10049"

Even if firewall disabled. Missions just wont load at all.

Have you done the saved games folder trick yet?

Have you done the saved games folder trick yet?

Whats that?

Basically go and rename your user / saved games / dcs folder to "dcs1" and start the game back up. If that works (generally it's the network related folder that is "kaput") then you can move a lot of the other custom setting folders back. I'll grab a link- we talk about that a LOT from the last version.

It is mentioned here:

Many of those other fixes are also worth consideration if this doesn't work.

Still no joy. Just takes longer to till me the same error. Or freeze.

Assuming you're running on LAN server and client connection speed? You hosting on the same PC that you're playing on?

Yes.

Hmmmm. So you're getting a connection interrupted while you're a client on the same computer you're hosting on? Weird.

I'd be interested in seeing your resource monitor while you're playing- I know 8gb RAM is a recommended amount but I think that's only as a client... not hosting as well.

Sounds odd that this just started happening.

Are your ports properly configured? Unless you're in a DMZ on your router, you'll still need 10308 forwarded. (quite certain)

I had the same problem, the error that pops up FYI can be scrolled down to reveal the solution that helped me, go to user/ username/savedgames/DCS/config the network.config file check the interface line, it may be wrong, mine was. the error in game says to delete this, just the address and retry, when i did this the error was gone and I could host again, hope this solves yours and others issue with this.

Guys anyone who does host the server could you please attach you network.cfg file?

I don't know what to do and how to fix this problem. Nobody see my server but about six month ago everything was cool.

Thanks a lot

Ahh,

I think this is not trivial and I need some more input regarding your security devices ( firewall/router, software-firewall and/or Antivirus Suite with additional features ).

You do need more ports than the obvious 10308 tcp and udp to be visible and recognized by the ED Master Servers but that ONLY applies if you have a outbound-blocking firewall. ALL home user routers DO NOT do this, only higher end devices take this approach but maybe you are stuck behind one of those, maybe withpout knowing.

Uss this thread of mine to sort out your Ports. All ports needed are listed in this thread.

Contact me via PM if you need network help.

too little RAM will cause a different error, went that road before with 6GB RAM in my lil Dell Box that I misuse as a DCS server sometimes.

Most bigger missions failed with 6GB RAM somewhere down the road, 8GB seems to make it for now, tendency to 12GB or more on the horizon if you plan to upgrade, go all the way to 16GB.
