Different ports about arkserver HOT 5 CLOSED

Hey @catzoo. By default the dedicated server will open up two ports, both the one you specify and then another for RawSockets, typically the one you specified +1. So in your case, it would be opening the following:

7777 - the one you specified
7778 - the RawSocket port.

More information on the RawSockets stuff can be found here: https://ark.gamepedia.com/Dedicated_Server_Setup

As far as fixing the issue, I'd recommend just opening both ports on the container. So your docker run command would end up looking something like this:

sudo docker run -d --name ark_server \
-p 27015:27015 \
-p 7777:7777 \
-p 7778:7778 \
-p 32330 :32330 \
-v ark:/ark \
-v steam:/home/steam/steam \
-e am_serverMap=Valguero_P \
-e am_ark_SessionName="ButterNuggetz server" \
-e am_ark_MaxPlayers=8 \
-e am_ark_ServerAdminPassword=password\
-e am_ark_ServerPassword=password\
-e am_ark_QueryPort=27015 \
-e am_ark_Port=7777 \
-e am_ark_RCONPort=32330 \

Thank you for responding.

Sorry, I should've put more info in my issue. When I set am_ark_port=7777 for some reason in the run arguments it has ?Port=7778. I also tried it using the default environment port 7778 and the run arguments go in reverse and have ?Port=7777. I mean when I looked at the logs and when it runs the ark server with those arguments.

Or is that normal since it opens both 7777 and 7778?

I will modify my run command to the one you gave me and try it again.

Thanks!

There might've not been an issue. I run the ark_server and i'm still seeing the ?Port argument different, this time it was set to ?Port=7776.

But I successfully joined the ark server.

Sorry about that and thanks for your help.

No problem @catzoo, glad you were able to get it figured out.

oh sorry to comment on a closed issue. I found more information and a solution to the problem I was having.

If anyone is having this issue, it decrease the port by one. So if you're trying to set the port to 7777-7778, set Port to 7778.
