Forum ‹ Multiplayer ‹ Connection disallowed by server policy

I been trying for while now, and I just can't seem to figure out why it isn't working. First I assumed it was some setting or a firewall, or maybe I wasn't reaching the server at all, but the dashboard displays the correct number of users and rooms at any time.

When connecting, I get:
Connection disallowed by server policy
Unable to connect to multiplayer server

Sorry if it's something simple, but I couldn't figure it out.

EDIT - Also, I'd like to say this has been really easy to use so far, which is great!

Hey, "Connection disallowed by server policy" is thrown when the socket connection receives an IOError, can you link me to your project so I can take a quick look and see if I can connect?

[matrix5565]

I don't mean to sound stupid, but what do you mean by "my project?"

[Benjaminsen]

Upload the swf somewhere!

Okay.

It's extremely buggy even on the dev server, but it you should be able to get 2 players together.
Just jump on the right platform and press space.

Looks like it works like it should towards the prod servers. Are you actually seeing that error as a result of the game failing or did you just notice it in the logs?

[matrix5565]

No, it definitely doesn't work for me.

But if it's working for you, it's probably that I'm on my colleges WIFI right now, I'll check again when I get home.
I assumed that wasn't the case when I saw I showed up on the "Current Online" in the dashboard.

Thanks.

EDIT - After trying to play the multiplayer platforms game you posted, this is almost definitely the case. Neither Nonoba's chat nor the actual game would load, so I'm sure it's just my connection. Thanks again.

Hey, the servers require you to be able to connect to port 911 while we are in beta. We will be introducing new ports including 80 shortly
