Troubleshooting

Quick fixes for the problems people hit most.

Updated Oct 28, 2026

Server will not connect

  • Use the RCON port, not the game port.
  • Check the password against the server's startup settings.
  • Open the RCON port for incoming TCP, and enable RCON in your host's panel if needed.
  • Avoid spaces, accented letters and the characters # % \ " < > ^ ` { | } in the RCON password. Rust web RCON can't receive them.
  • Use the server's public IP, and keep web RCON on (+rcon.web 1).

Console shows no logs

  • Check the server shows as connected.
  • Make sure the log is not paused, then refresh.

Ban did not apply

  • If the server was offline, it applies when it reconnects.
  • Check the Steam ID, and that the ban has not ended or been revoked.

Rule does not fire

  • Make sure it is turned on.
  • Check that the trigger and conditions match, and that a cooldown is not holding it.
  • Look at the rule history for errors.

Discord gets nothing

  • Check the webhook still exists in Discord.
  • Test the rule with a simple message.

Analytics are empty

  • Data starts when you added the server and builds up every few minutes.
  • Heatmaps need a few days.

Features missing after Beta Tester approval

  • Wait a moment and refresh.
  • Check the access is active and not expired.
