game crashes when I try to connect to my server

[·(-_-)·]

My game crashes when I try to connect to my server.

I have tried restarting the server. restarting the client machine.

reinstalling java on both, client and server machine (both use open java-8) 64bit as it is 64bit Ubuntu 15.03
I did app_update 380870 validate on the server machine (to check wether files were corrupted).

 

My ports are forwarded as follows:

16261:udp

16262-16330:tcp

also steam port is open

 

I can connect to the server and I can create a character, however on loading map it just crashes. I can connect fine to other servers.

 

 

EDIT:

in the server console I can see that everything runs fine till port assignment: 16262, client seems connected fine.

 

then

connection closed: reason=1 port=1

disconnecting client ID

auth failed

sending ticket

response: 4

OK I have it solved.

After deleting the folder Zomboid  in /home/steam/

(of course re-configuring server.ini is necessary)

I could finally connect to the server.

Hello Sir. The same for me.

 

I had everything working fine. After a few "test plays" I stopped the server and changed the Default Spawn Location inside the servertest.ini and the ISSUE start to occur.

 

I had to deleted the Zomboid folder (C:\Users\myuser\Zomboid\) to be able to make it work again. VERY strange! Hope that a DEV might be looking at these as we can easily reproduce the issue.
