PfSense Port Forwarding Issues

[Guest]

Here is a screenshot of my port forward settinsgs https://gyazo.com/f12d6e09b2723a7dff72d3f96a839d30 I have a minecraft server and the firewall on the server machine is disabled. When I do a port check it says the port is open but when trying to connect it says it cant find the server pls help.

 

 

UPDATE: Connecting with ipv6 works find but not ipv4

 

UPDATE2: I have revcieved this error and I don't understand what it means. 

• There were error(s) loading the rules: /tmp/rules.debug:148: rule expands to no valid combination - The line in question reads [148]: pass in quick on $WAN reply-to ( em0 [myipv6 adress] ) inet6 proto { tcp udp } from any to 192.168.1.105 port 25565 tracker 1466974036 keep state label "USER_RULE: NAT " @ 2016-06-26 13:58:06

lan works find its just connecting via wan and I assume its a problem with the port forwarding or pfsense

Have you had someone else try to connect to it that is outside your local area network? Because if that works then you probably need to make sure that NAT reflection is enabled or setup properly since you are trying to connect to it from inside your network but using the external ip address.

Just out of curiosity change "filter rule association" to pass. I feel like something messed up there. If that doesn't work then I would delete the port forwarding rule and anything associated with it and start over.

Also when I do a port check it says its open but when trying to connect in minecraft it says it cant connect to the server.

I feel like that may be the issue (by that I mean your associated rule). If you are just forwarding minecraft through that port then you shouldn't need a filter. Just set it to pass

This is because the port can be open but it something is wrong with the rule/filter then its going to cause issues and you shouldn't need

With an associated or with it set to "pass" it doesnt work.

What does the NAT rule look like that you created to go with this port forwarding rule. I saw that someone brought it up in the previous post about this issue.

I'm just trying to get a better picture of what is going on inside of the pfsense box and see if there is anything that we are missing.

What do you mean by what does the rule look like?

What do you need to see?

I don't know if you have tried this already but change "Destination" to any inside of the port forwarding rule, then go to Interfaces>WAN and make sure that both "block private networks and loopback" and "block bogon networks" are unchecked.

I think the main problem is probably the WAN interface so I would change that first and then change destination to any if that fails. (hopefully it doesn't)

Both of those failed... I have no idea what else I can do to fix this

The point of port forwarding is to NOT use something like hamachi

There comes a point where you just have to accept something is not going to work.
