Server not showing up in the list (Ports opened, direct connect works)

GTA V version? Latest update (Steam).
Up to date? Yes.
Legit or Pirate copy? Legit.
Steam/CD/Social Club? Social Club.
Windows version? Windows 10 64 bits.

As the title says, my server won’t show up in the list.
Here’s what I did so far:

  • Opened ports (30110/30120) in my router, confirmed by http://canyouseeme.org/;
  • Created inbound and outbound rules with the mentioned ports in my firewall;
  • Used the FiveM Monitor Graphic’s API to check if the server was live, through http://five-serverlist.com/api/monitor_graphic.php?ip=<my external ip>:30120. And, as you can see, it was:

fivem

I really don’t know what I could be possibly missing here.

Thanks in advance,
Aeonian.

Couple of things to check:

  • Did you overwrite sv_master1 in your server.cfg?
  • Has your server been online longer than ~30 minutes continuously?
  • Can you visit http://<server_ip>:<port>/info.json in your browser without errors?
  • Does the heartbeat show up in console, i.e. sending heartbeat to <hostname>
  • Do you have an anti-virus running on your machine?

Did you overwrite sv_master1 in your server.cfg?

No, I just left it as default: #sv_master1 "".

Has your server been online longer than ~30 minutes continuously?

No, but I will be doing this right now! (Will update the post afterwards).

Can you visit http://<server_ip>:<port>/info.json in your browser without errors?

I tried to visit it using my external IP and the page wouldn’t load. However, using the private IP I could successfuly load it (returned a lot of text).

It’s interesting to note that, to connect via Direct Connect, I need to use my private IP, otherwise it wouldn’t work.

Does the heartbeat show up in console, i.e. sending heartbeat to …

Yes, e.g. Sending heartbeat to live-internal.fivem.net:30110.

Do you have an anti-virus running on your machine?

Yes, Avast. But all the modules are deactivated .

Thank you for the quick reply @Syntasu.

If info.json is not available from an external IP, then the server list can’t fetch data about your server :confused:

Still, isn’t it strange that I can use these APIs with my external IP and still get results from my server?

  • http://five-serverlist.com/api/playerlist.php?ip=<ip>:30120

  • http://five-serverlist.com/api/monitor_graphic.php?ip=<ip>:30120

Strange indeed… I’m out of options on how to resolve this :thinking:
