Setup Checklist
This guide is for when the setup for TCPShield is failing. This checklist will give you a list of things to double-check to ensure everything is configured correctly.
- 1.Is your domain verified?
- 2.Are you confident your backend server is accepting connections? Ensure the correct port that BungeeCord / Spigot is running on is open and property set in the panel.
- 3.Are you trying to join the backend IP directly? The TCPShield plugin blocks this intentionally.
- 4.Have you configured the proxy protocol correctly? The TCPShield plugin and proxy protocol setting can't coexist. More information can be found here.
- 5.Make sure you do not install the TCPShield plugin in both your proxy server and your game mode server.
- 6.Has your DNS propagated? It can take up to 24 hours sometimes for DNS to fully propagate for everyone.
- 1.
- 2.
- 7.Have you tried using your subdomain instead of your SRV record? Some clients can have issues resolving your SRV record.
- 8.Does your backend set have the expected IP addresses in the panel?
- 9.
The TCPShield Discord is available if needed, but this should cover most issues people will encounter when setting up TCPShield.
